Sekinchan Trip, Part.3

As the run rose and the chilly air started to blow, morning had finally came around before we knew it. It was only the second day and I was already in love with my bed! However, we had to wake up early and I was ready for the next journey right when the clock ticked 6:30 A.M. The aircon was cold, the air outside was cold, everything was cold-- but things changed after I met a beautiful cat when I was taking a walk in my hotel. 

Look at this baby.

It was our last day in the hotel and we decided to head out for yet another exciting adventure. This time, we checked out the fishing village and Redang beach. The beach was sooo quiet and the water weren't as clean as expected, so we decided to goof around on the provided playground.

Fly, my friends.

As time passed by, we were informed by the lecturers that they've found the secret gem they were looking for; the fishing village. It was quite a struggle to find the right entrance (because there were many roads and I was honestly reaaally afraid of dogs. All the roads we went through had dogs guarding them ; - ; ) but after walking for a good 30 minutes, we finally found the majestic views of what we had been looking for! Some activities were found in our visit.

Men chatting in the morning

Dried fish! It made the whole neighbourhood smelled fishy huehue.

Just a bunch of fishermen relaxing, chilling and chatting together. 

Fishing appliances!  

People are experiencing the life of a fisherman on top of their boats. : )

 And of course, I happened to find two aunties cleaning some udang katak. They said they worth a lot and taste really delicious.

Until next time, fishing village!

The visit was finally over and we decided to call it a day. We were hungry and heard that someone invited the whole region to have some Raya feast. With mind settled on getting food, we embarked to the crime scene to fill our crying tummy.

*me shamelessly walking down the road and entering the feast*

Busy people, busy serving and giving foods for the guests!

Oh look, briyani rice with goat : " D

And so, after filling our tummy, we decided to call it a day and went back to our hotel. We headed out to some halal seafood restaurants to eat dinner and went to see the fireflies right after! Too bad pictures weren't allowed in the fireflies sighting location.

Oooh manta rays and fish eggs

And so, our last day in the hotel was over and we checked out in the next morning. We headed out for another adventure out there and found ourselves arriving at Hj. Dorani homestay in the afternoon. The sun was scorching hot!

A traditional malay house found in the homestay location. It had a bamboo accessory thing- and surrounded by beautiful flowers.

The homestay guy showing us how to paint batik and our preparation before painting our own artworks. We had lots of fun, we even tried catching some catfishes inside a mud pond, but we weren't allowed to bring phones to I had no pictures of the moment. It was a tiring day, but worth remembering for! After our time in the homestay was done, we headed to another hotel which was The Kabin, where we would experience living in containers. We ended the night with making barbecue for dinner.

The only photo I managed to capture during barbecue dinner because I was eating with my hands hAHAHA
