Paradise?!

We left the heat in the jungle and got to the east coast... finally some sea breeze!! And the water was turquoise and 25 degrees... couldn't be better!
We are now at Perhentian Island Kecil(the small island) and we got a bungalow at Matahari Chalets, a nice and clean set of bungalows right next to the beach.

Our Bungalow veranda!

The beach!

We are relaxing and trying to acclimatize to the heat.. it is not that hard with the beach that close... Although we left the jungle the mosquitoes are all over us... but at least we have a good mosquito net over the bed.

We have spent the two first days on the island on the beach and on the veranda of our bungalow! Nice and easy! The weather has been nice, the few clouds we had today had a nice cooling effect! No real sun burn yet ... Lots of delicious fruit juices and shakes! We can't stay away from the coffee-chocolate-shake, it's addictive! :-)

Not the perfect sharpness in the picture.. but doesn't he look good!!

Happy Tina on the beach restaurant!! Waiting for yet another fruit-shake!!

Tomorrow we're going out on a snorkeling tour, trying six of the best snorkeling spots around the island. Turtles and sharks (small ones) have been promised!!! Will be nice to do something active again after two days on the beach (we're not used to relaxing, thanks Jacob) ...

After the snorkeling, we're probably staying on the island yet another day, and then we're heading for Thailand (sorry Khang, looks like we're leaving out Redang)! We just have to figure out how and where to cross the border ... Better ask some locals, or even better ... some backpackers!

C U soon (only 2 weeks left)!
