Cherating, Day 1

I was seriously freezing.
This was without air-cond and fan in the room.

Hello everybody. I'm currently in cherating, Kuantan, Pahang. Erm, i arrived yesterday, after a long four hours but very scenic drive. I'm staying in The Legend Hotel. So far, it has been raining non-stop since I got here. I think it only stopped raining for like 15 minutes... And there definitely is no sun, its cloudy and cold all the way. I seriously feel like i'm in Genting Highlands as opposed to Cherating.

The showroom (222).

We (my family) are staying in room 222, which is a showroom. Previously, we were in another room, which smelled really funky and musty... Eewww, so after the complains, luckily they gave us the show room, which is much cleaner and no weird smells. My only complain would be that there is a leak in the toilet...

Can you see the white water and the murky brown colour of the ocean?
The waves even forms into barrels as it breaks into the shore.
The cloudy and rainy skies.

So, i always thought that the water in the east coast was like crystal clear blue and really clean, since i've only ever seen clear and clean waters each time i've been to any island in the east coast. But mabye coz its the monsoon season now and due to the rough and strong currents, the water is really murky and brown in colour. No doubt, normally, since i'm in cherating, the water should be clean, clear, and blue. But now, its brown and probably full of very fine sand...


At the balcony.

Aside from all that, the hotel itself... I think its kinda an old hotel. There is nothing here. No doubt it is very relaxing and peaceful, but coming from the city.... Its a bit tooo relaxing, peaceful, and full of nothingness for me. I kinda miss KL. The pool is kinda murky, and I can't swim in the beach since its raining plus the current is really strong, with huge waves, its kinda scary. Don't get me wrong, i love the ocean and the beach, and usually i'm always at the beach, but this holiday.... I'm always in my room at the balcony. lol. Oh well... Thank God my room is near the lobby and I can access wifi from my room. So at the very least, my gadgets keep me entertained. ;p

I'm holding an umbrella not coz its hot, but coz its raining.
