#springitinerary Early risers got breakfast! 8 AM breakfast included: coconut milk rice, fried noodles, porridge; drinks choices were Milo or coffee. ☕🥥🍜 Before breakfast, there was a little drama—outside, the wind and rain picked up, and we thought, “Oh no, no chance to go to the mirror beach!” But luckily, the weather cleared and we could still go. 🌧️➡️☀️ #Twin Tanjung Aquarium (about 30 minutes visit) Originally planned for Day 1 but time was tight, so it was moved here. If you expect it to be a typical big aquarium, it’s not quite that. It’s more like a small zoo with peacocks, rabbits, lizards, and other animals. Still a nice stop! 🐇🦎🦚 At 10 AM, we headed back to the jetty, ready to set off for the Mirror Beach! 🚤 The boat ride was about 20 minutes. This time we could actually step on the sandy beach and play in the water a bit! 🏖️🌊 All around us, there was no sign of any modern city—just water and lush green trees. Super relaxing! 🌿💧

#deliciousfood #旅行酷体验 As a working adult, is getting more difficult for a gang of buddy to have a trip together. Every trip with you guys is often simple yet full of laughter. Knowing each other in the first place is faith, staying together for such a long time is commitment, loving each other and still able to stay as a gang is gods will. We don’t need being luxurious but a simple trip will do. Hopefully our friendship will last forever.

Located at a fish village called Bagan Sungai Belukang, the seafood restaurant by locals is renowned of its signature fish/seafood porridge with iconic spice.
