a trip to kuantan

i went to kuantan for chemical plants visitation on last tuesday. my coursemates and i departed from ukm to kuantan on monday evening, around 4.30 p.m. we were divided into 2 groups. i don't know what happened with the bus system in ukm, my bus was late and the other group's bus(group B) was at departure point on time and group B left without us. so we waited for half an hour before we got onto the bus and rode off. it was a long journey, all the way from bangi ukm to the coast at kuantan. we reached the resort around 11 p.m. we got ourselves checked in, put all our luggages in our respective rooms and went out to have a stroll along the beach. it was so dark, we could hardly see anything.

our foots(there were me, ing hua, wenli, tee hui, kit how and kok leong)

there was a small stream on the sand and we saw some ikan bilis, some claimed it was tadpoles

a sand castle

after a while, we went to a mamak stall nearby and hang out with other coursemates until around 1 a.m and went back to our rooms. we woke up as early as 5.45 a.m just to rush ourselves to the beach to catch the splendid sunrise

my feet
my feet, again
still...my feet

the splendid sunrise...worth sacrificing sleep for

after watching the sunrise, we went back to our rooms. we got ready and went down to the cafeteria to have our breakfast. the breakfast was o.k...
we started our journey, i mean visitation around 8.30 a.m. i was mesmerised by those big big reactors, distillation columns, pump, control panels in the control room and the surroundings. i really wish i could work there. we were forbidden to take pictures in one of the 2 plants we visited. so the pictures shown below was taken from only 1 plant, the smaller one yet so genuine and i'm lovin' it !!!

combination of everything

i seem small

we had our lunch beside the beach and the scenery was breath-taking

it was an amazing trip(more like a holiday to me) even though i was extremely exhausted and i have tonnes to clothes to wash...back to work !!!
