THE ADVENTURE OF FOUR FRIENDS
Still unpacked and not mentally ready to wake up as early as 5 tomorrow.
Meeting point: Pantai Lido at 6.30am
Freaking early and now I'm just feeling drained out of energy with aching arms.
Yessah! It happened! We did go kayaking just now at East Coast. Hafeez, Farid, Lena and I. Too bad Joyce was itching to perm her hair instead. You missed all the fun!
Anyway it was a great kayaking adventure. A great way to spend the afternoon basking in the sun, in the midst of the vast ocean. Perfect way to destress with the wind blowing in the hair (and through my tudung) and getting ourselves saltishly wet.
But I must say, the rowing back part was a challenge. Just chilling under the sun, away by the waves, we did not realise that our kayaks got drifted so far away. It was really tough going against the wave to finally reach the shore after almost half and hour. Many things went through my mind as the sea got choppier and Lena and Hafeez were left very far behind. It comes to the state that all I want to do is reach to the shore safely fast so that I could send for help if any of them needs it.
Yes I was feeling a little scared as I braved through the waves and even Farid who was initially kayaking nearby me has drifted far off. Apparently that boy got attracted to a school of jumping fishes and so diverted further away... perhaps he was just hallucinating cause he didn't get to see any up close.
But hey all are safe and happy after a good meal at the nearby food centre.
That was indeed a fun destressing session. Let's have another one when Kat recovers ok?!
Now the most important question is: Will my parents trust me to drive my new car alone up Port Dickson? Well I am not sure myself but I want to try... please....
