From left - Wanie, Melvin, May Yan, Shermaine and Lay trying to bbq as fast as they can before sunset After much planning had been done to go for PD, 8 of us finally on the way there. We stayed at Ancasa Allsuites Resort and Spa, a 4 star resort located at Telok Kemang. Originally the plan was to to stay for 4 days and 1 of the day we'll go Malacca, which is around 80+ km from our resort. But due to 'unforseen situation', we stayed all 3 nights at PD. We went there in 2 cars and the journey was about 1 hr 30 minutes from our college, Taylor's University College. Well the journey was smooth until when we exit the PD highway to the town center and there were a lot of traffic lights which makes us stop a lot. The road is also narrow as it PD is consider a suburb area. To make things worst, when we were on the way to the town center, there were a lot of cars on the road. And then we realised. LUNCH TIME!!! SCHOOL OVER!!!. Traffic were heavy but moving. We can see a lot of school children riding their motorbikes and were wondering... arent they too young to be riding motorbikes. And then Lay joke saying 'future MAT
Shermaine and Irene
Taken before sunset REMPIT'... haha...
Anyway we reach to the town center where we went rounding around to look around first. The we continue to our resort which is around 20 minutes from the town center. Once we arrived the resort I went and get the room and then... 8 of us off to our room... which is located at the highest floor and it is a penthouse. Our room is a garden view but then we can see the sea at all. So is like our room facing both view... haha... Well after unpacking our stuff and we went to walk around the apartment to look for our 'suitable' place for our bbq. Well... the receptionist lady told us that we can have bbq outside the resort at the beach side but when we look at the place, is so dirty and feel uneasy. One more thing to keep in mind when going PD... DO NOT GO during school days. PD is like a dead town during that time where there aren't many people there. Not even tourist. Anyway back to our bbq plan. So we all agree to have bbq at a place and we decided to go back to
Us
from left - Irene, Shermaine, Me, Lay, Melvin, May Yan, Shafiq and Wanie our room to take a rest for a while. In the evening, we went and play at the pool and we play till we forget bout time... And our BBQ!! so yea... we did not have our BBQ on that day because it was late and we onli get ready like 7.30pm. So yea... we went to nearby 'mamak' and have our dinner there. PD is well know for its fish and we order individual food plus 2 BIG FISH to share. It was so damn delicious. Or maybe we were hungry. Anyway we enjoyed our meals and then is time to head back to our resort. Thats end of day 1.
Day 2... we supposed to go to Malacca today but then because we didn't have our bbq the previous day, we decided to postpone our trip to Malacca. Me, Shermaine, Shafiq and Wanie, 4 of us went out for breakfast while the others were still sleeping. We went to the nearby stalls where we eat nasi lemak, mee goreng and roti canai. And about PD, there are a lot of houseflies everywhere. They tend to be very distracting when you r having ur meals. And the people
Sunset
View of sunset... There are argument between shafiq and dunno who regarding where the sun set and rise. there seems to be normal like nothing is bothering them. We bought for the others roti canai and then went an area, is like a town or center of PD where outsider can park their can and walk around those shops over there. We found a nice spot for our BBQ as it is open area and there are nice environment there. After that we head back to the resort. Well, we were hanging out at our room chatting while waiting for lunch... hehe... Food seems to be one of the reason we r enjoying at PD. During lunch, it was raining and all of us excluding lay and melvin, who r still sleeping, went back to the area we went this morning. We called different local cuisine but some of the food were lousy as it is cold or it look and taste funny. Shermaine onli took 1 bite of her food and she didnt eat anymore after that. haha... Anyway yea all 6 of us went back to our resort after that as there's nothing much we can do because it is raining. (I know most of the time we r in our room 😊 ) around 4
Wanie shooting?
I think better move far away coz wanie is shooting... :) the rain stops and we went back again to the area again and this time we r having our bbq there. It took us sometimes to start the fire and we keep shifting place coz it was drizzling. After the guys had started the fire, is time to BBQ!! haha... we had fishball, chicken, and tonyam fish... all prepared in my house a day before we depart to PD. Irene were like so excited when we had our BBQ... dunno y... haha... halfway bbq we decided to bbq all the food then bring it back to our room instead of finishing it there coz there are too much food. So we BBQ all the way until 7 something and then started packing back to our room. It was tiring but fun night.
Day 3... the receptionist still don believe that we stayed for like 3 nights coz she called for 2 days straight thinking that when r we goin to check out. (I'm still wondering whether r they laughing at us because the average nite at PD is 2 nights onli) Well as usual 4 of us went to have our breakfast again and the rest still sleeping. I'll
Irene and me
Notice that our bow is different size? one for female and 1 for male. I think i'm holding the male one? skip to the lunch part. During lunch we went to a chinese restaurant to have our seafood lunch. Cant remember wat he had ordered but the owner was very friendly and helpful. The seafood price in PD is consider cheap compared to other places and is fresh. After lunch we go to Eagle Ranch, where all activities and games are held there. This area is popular with team building activities. When we arrived there we saw a lot of school children having their team building games there. First we went and play archery. Well thats not the part i'm waiting. This archery is for warm up for our next game... PAINTBALL!!!! Paintball is fun but very tiring. At first we have guys vs girls and well... guys win... Then after that 5 of us continue to play while others watch. Me and Lay 1 team and the other team is May Yan, Melvin and Shafiq. One piece of advice... nv play 2 vs 3... Is so tiring and difficult to move. I was pin down by the opponents. Lay got himself injured when Melvin shoot him in short range which leave swallen mark for few days. After the game we
Eagle Ranch rooms
Notice the uniqueness their accommodation is... were so exhausted we didnt play the go-cart. On the way back to our resort we stop by 'Pasar Malam' to buy food for our dinner. This place is good as they are money choices of food to choose from. After that we went back to our resort.
The next day, we checked out and went back to our own destination, bringing back memories from PD 😊. i'll try to upload more pics as soon as possible...
