Cuti-Cuti Malaysia: Perak Trip

Our family trip this year started with a visit to Perak...Actually this trip was not really in our plan. Well, as usual last minute plan...The truth is we actually were invited to attend a wedding of the son of my father's cousin in Parit, Perak. So after the kenduri we decided to spend a nite at Teluk Batik, Lumut.

It's a peak season of school holidays..We browsed a number of hotel and chalet around that area for a comfortable and affordable place to stay..Luckily, we found this nice apartment. Three bedrooms apartment at Marina Cove Resort at Teluk Batik, comfortable enough for 10 of us... With the price of RM350 (with 10% discount on government tax), this apartment, with a seaview from the master bedroom really superb..

Second bedroom with the view of rainforest...Fresh air....

Third room...

Wet Theme Park of Marina Cove Resort...Definetely we'll explored it...Wait for tomorrow..

In the late afternoon....As usual, my little sunshines having fun in the swimming pool of the resort.

At nite...Dinner in one of the seafood restaurant in Teluk Batik...Posing with snorkelling sea turtle..

Our dinner that nite...sambal udang, kerang bakar...

Ketam goreng berlada..

Kerabu sotong....

And hero of the day...Sweet sour grouper...tom yam and kangkung seafood (not in the photo) Urmph!! Yummy....Dinner was under my sister's treat... She only pay RM150 for the dinner that nite...Murah kan!!!Kenyang....

Next day....my turn to having fun at the theme park..

Rendam sampai kecut...my motto that day...
