The last time we were at Tanjung Sutera, we tried to catch the sunset but to no avail. This time, the determined bf decided to give it another try.
However, our hopes were quickly dashed when we saw the immense cloud cover. So instead of a nice, glowing, ball of light, we saw a sky in a myriad of orange and purple hues, and of course - lots of puffy clouds.
To curb the disappointing sunrise and breakfast buffet by the resort, I actually ordered 6 donuts.
When the donuts arrived, I counted not 6, but 20 donuts! Apparently, the waiter thought I ordered 6 SETS of donuts (1 Set consists of 3 donuts). Suffice to say, I was surfeited with flour and sugar!
Since we are only moving off in the afternoon, we had lots of spare time after breakfast. Some of us went back to our rooms to curb the post breakfast lethargy, while a handful decided to catch a shuteye right where they were seated.
I however, decided to roam around and take some pictures. Here's the cafeteria, where many meals are partaken, and many conversations exchanged.
Basically, the cafeteria is where we eat, loiter, and bum around.
It's not everyday that I get to look out into the sea, and be serenaded by the sound of the crashing waves.
So there I was, facing the vast horizons of the sea, enjoying the sea breeze, and enjoying the moment of peace and tranquility.
2:30pm came faster than a blink of an eye. With much reluctance, we bade farewell to the resort and moved off to our next destination.
Here's a picture of 2 newcomers - Aaron & Karen!

Since we had some time before dinner, Isaac took us for a slow and easy ride through the trunk roads.

.. and behind us!
Halfway through, Isaac brought us to a local beach for a short rest. Having traveled in the afternoon heat for some time, this rest stop by the beach was much needed to cool us down.
View of the beach. Absolutely loving the azure blue skies!
About 20 minutes or so, we continued on our journey to our last destination for dinner!
Travelling on the Sungai Johor Bridge, (which I hear is) the longest river bridge in Malaysia.
As we journeyed further, the skies started turning grey. I'm not sure about the rest, but I was praying hard that it wouldn't rain! Or at least, it wouldn't rain until we reach our dinner destination!
Alas, the skies gave way. Bummer! So we pulled to the side of the road, under the bridge, and put on our rain gears.
Despite the heavy rain and traffic, we managed to arrive at our destination - JB Permas Seafood Restaurant - safely.
The interiors of the restaurant are bright and spacious.
Since I didn't had lunch, I was quite famished by the time it was dinner. Catering to the urgent needs of my stomach, I didn't take any pictures.. except for the Oyster Clams.
But all in all, the food was good albeit a bit pricey. Regardless of the price, a sumptuous dinner along with good company, is always a good way to end a trip.
As we arrived at JB Permas Seafood Restuarant in the early evening, it was about dusk when we finished our meals. Which means that we could still catch the sunset!
As night slowly fell, the crowd at JB Permas Seafood Restaurant started building up. At the same time, we started making our way back home.
With a weekend of fun, relaxation, donuts, and great food, it's needless to say that I thoroughly enjoyed myself. And although it was a short trip, it's the journey, the memories, and the camaraderie that truly makes it an unforgettable one.
