Blue Monday…(or Tuesday)…

Blue Monday I’m afraid…following a great weekend of bone idleness and mooching about it’s time to get back to it. 

The morning alarm needed to be set to make the pre arranged meeting for 09:00 with strong coffee ordered to wake the brain. 
We have only ourselves to blame for this early start…we are heading out to the one of the tiny Perhentian Islands.

After an earlier mishap at the morning buffet where I ended up with bread and butter pudding with salad cream?, “the cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast!”, it was time to go!

  

Our man arrived on the hour and took us to the RV point where 450cc of 4 stroke twinYamaha unbalanced horse power was waiting to whisk us on a 45 minute bouncy speedboat ride. Departing from Sungai  Setiu river Jetty it is the only way to access this tiny piece of exclusive aquamarine paradise on Lang Tengah Island, a marine conservation area for turtles and our destination for the next few days.
Snorkelling 🤿 about in the shallow clear waters the baby sharks chase the shoals of tiny fish by the jetty. The coral isn’t brilliant here, unfortunately bleached white and dead but the beautiful turquoise water is fab for poking about in.

 


It’s early in the season so once again very quiet and relaxing with not many tourists about to annoy us…time to put my feet up…!



Is that Blue enough for you?

Blue Monday is New Orders quintessential classic song…
