Taking a break

Last week, started on Tuesday embarked on a journey through old kampung roads, a 1,200km journey from Rawang -> Senawang -> Kuala Pilah -> Batu Kikir -> Bandar Muazam -> Rompin -> Kuala Rompin -> Tanjung Gemok -> Endau -> Penyabong -> Mersing -> Mawai -> Tanjung Sedili -> Jason Bay(Telok Mahkota) -> Sedili Kecil -> Bandar Penawar -> Ayer Tawar 3 -> Telok Sengat -> Johor Bahru -> Rawang.

Along the way between Batu Kikir & Bandar Muazam encountered wild boars on the roadside, giant monitor lizard along Mersing-Mawai road, and another one being hit by a lorry while crossing the road. managed to sight a pair of hornbill near sedili, a black cobra (Ophiophagus hannah) in the middle of the road trying to attack a motorcyclist. And all the way sighted a lot of monkey & macaques....

Spend a night at Penyabong in Endau, Johor, an economical beach resort with swimming pool near the fishermens' jetty. From the beach we can see in the distance island; "Kelong Aceh" famous among anglers & tourists from Singapore, fish trap built on stilt above the sea and built-in with rooms to rent (chalet-like), restaurant and other facilities for fishing....
