We were booted off the island. One night in Kota Bharu. The speedboat ride was pretty bumpy. Back on the main Malay Peninsula. Viena and Dwana had a good time shopping at the local market.
What a beautiful day spent travelling in transition. From our place at Ewans through on Kecil Perhentian to a tour of the big island over to the jetty at Kuala Besut into our taxi. We did not go to the market. Communication issues. Onto Kota Bharu and into the Tune Hotel. Air conditioning! Shopping at the KB mall for some stuff. We ater for about half the cost of the island. We stocked up on provisions for the week in the jungle. The speed boat ride was pretty bumpy but made many smiles and blew lots of hair in faces. Not really sad to leave the islands. Time for other things. One week was good enough. Our taxi driver drove a bit slower, but still a bit crazy. The scenery reminded me of growing up on the gulf coast. The rains fell in Kota Bharu tonight. Shopping was fun buying $2 shirts. Caught a taxi to go and purchase our train tickets. We are on the 9:15 jungle train ride in the morning. Bought $70 worth of food, so I feel like a local and enjoy a good workout with the bags. Ezra and I played in the Hotel room, while Viena and Dwana had their Malaysian shopping mall experience. Ezra was so playful and was so tired by dinner time – falling asleep at the dinner table. Stories of the fresh king fish, the back porch of Ewan’s place, the chicken foot on the beach, the truckload of chickens on the road. The bright sun overhead at noon.
