I am back from Terengganu, Malaysia. What a fun study field-trip. Here is some of the details

Day 1
Went to school at 6:30 then wait for bus, the tour was led by 3 teachers mdm haslinda, ms ong lay hoon and mrs guo. Then board the bus and travel to second link and get to malaysia. There the bus stop at some food court for us to take our breakfast then saw Aaron there. So coincidental. After that we travel some more then after a few hour a pitstop and lunch at the hotel near the border of johor then when we reach the state of Terengganu, the tour guide talk about general information of Terengganu where it is the richest state because theres alot of oil refinery here as oil from south china sea is transferred here and it has the longest white sand shore in peninsular Malaysia. Then spent a few more hours to travel to Kuala Terengganu when reach we went for our dinner at 9pm lol more than 12 hours to reach destination. After dinner went to hotel and settle down. Was room-mate with Wei Hong so go bath, brush teeth then sleep.

Day 2
Woke up by the 6:30 morning call and it was a computerized voice of "This is a wake up call" and it continued to repeat. After brushing teeth, went down to take our buffet breakfast. After breakfast is to assemble at lobby to get on th bus for the day's activity. Took like a few hour of travelling to get to the conservation centre for turtles and on the way the tour guide talk about sea turtles in Terengganu. After the visit, travel again to another turtle sanctuary which need to walk a distance to see the hatchery from far and see the beach where mdm haslinda explain the waves formation. After that visit the BP sponsored exhibition hall and see more about sea turtles. Then get back to the bus and travel to some beach and we sat at the grass land just beside the beach to eat our lunch. lol sea view lunch. After that go to see some real turtles and then get to the beach for fieldwork which is to draw out the features of this beach and measure if the waves is constructive or destructive. After that we bused to some area where there is a new mosque which is called crystal mosque which seem very shinny and the area also got convention centre and a park with replica of famous mosque and etc. Then we took the bus again to the waterfront where we eat at a restaurant which is like a pier and see sun set while eating. After that we went to shop at the "market" beside the restuarant. Alot of us bought the plastic keychain with our name on it. After that we got back to the hotel.

Day 3
Same thing as day 2 morning eat buffet at hotel for breakfast then took bus to lake kenyir where we took a boat ride on this man made lake which was built as there is a dam nearby causing the area to flood and a man made lake is formed. The boat travelled for 1 hour and it is those speed boats quite fast one to reach the pier that is leading to the caves. We studied the cave then mdm haslinda talk about the limestone formation in the cave while the boat people show us the spider and crabs.Then we exit the cave and eat lunch at the pier. Another unique lunch location. After lunch we got back to the boat where it take us to a herb garden lol they serve the boys tonka ali (i dunno how to spell it) then the girls drink another thing which i dunno the name. After that we take the boat to the waterfall as our boat was first so the man on the boat took us further than the normal trail which mean we need to climb a little. The water was cooling and seem clean. After photo taking we got back to the main pier and then boarded our bus again. We travelled to this botik shop well i bought a shirt as those traditional things do not fit me. After shopping at there we travel by bus to Mydin Mall which is like giant. Ate at KFC as dinner, then shop a little at Mydin. Then got back to hotel and sort of stay up longer and went to other people rooms than what teacher tell us which is 11pm but then got caught. We then wait for a while until teacher went back to their room then we go to other people room again.

Last Day
Woke up and ate breakfast at the buffet again then we travel to another market to shop for souvenir. Will give it when school reopen. Then it begins our more than 12 hour journey back to Singapore. Stop at a resturant for lunch and stop at those air-conditoned coach bus rest stop for dinner. Then reach JB and it look very jamed but then after malaysia custom the road was quite smooth for buses but the car line very jam then got pass the singapore custom and got back home.
