Surprise us that the breakfast was very good!
After breakfast, my daughter still insists going to the beach and swimming pool before we leave the beautiful resort.......
One of the activity over there......MTB
Times up!
It's time to pack everything and say bye-bye!
While we check out, the big group (5 express buses, about 150-180 persons) also check out at the same time, and the management give a surprise farewell.....very special dance.....
I remember Raymond Lim (9W2LRR) told me that, the 'Udang Galah' (Giant prawn) over here at Kuala Rompin is very famous. Therefore we stop by the shop to buy some before our journey back to JB. The location is N2°53.819' E103°25.497', shop at the most right.
Grade A, B, & C.
A= Biggest, around or more than 1 foot long and 1.5-2" diameter.
B= Medium, around 8-10" long and mostly 1" diameter. (I bought this - 1KG=RM31.00)

And along the way back, we pass by this bunker.......I think it's from 2nd World War, but can't find any info about it.....
