Fifth Post
1. Above is the photo of a sunset at Perhentian Island.
2. Perhentian Island is a famous island that is widely known among bag packers throughout the Europe. Some of them even continually come and visit the island, up to frequent as many as four trips within a year.
3. They have fallen in love with this piece of land which is beautifully decorated by its stunning nature. My self is not excluded.
4. A fourty-minute ride on a boat has cost me RM 70 back and forth, and the chalet rental during off season is only RM 35. The RM 5 per day car parking with roof top and ‘pak guard’ has set my mind free.
5. I’ve been told that the island was only opened back to public about two days ago, since the monsoon season. Hence, not so many tourist were around. I am feeling lucky though, because the timing apparently has suited my outstation works.
6. I never been to the island, so serenely, I am a bit excited. The best part is, my trip to the island was absolutely out of plan. as usual, I keep thinking that l will never know where my camera will bring me, and am glad that this time it happened to be a famous, local island.
7. It’s been late in the evening. All works for the day have been settled. like I mentioned earlier in my blog, it is impossible to shoot sunset in the east coast unless if you’re standing on an island.

8. I reached the perhentian kecil ‘Long Beach’ around 5.40pm and immediately crossed the other side of the island, about 15 minutes walked to ‘Coral Bay’ beach. A French man was accompanying me. He’s not even renting a chalet, but keep bringing along a hammock with him. He sleeps at the jetty. “sounds very quiet" he said.
9. I knew my steps were already on a beautiful island. A special feelings developed in me. The foreigners, mostly europeans were hanging around, some of them waiting patiently for the sun to go down.
10. When I first saw the beach of the sinking sun, the view was just tremendously mesmerizing. I dream of this view long ago since I posted a thread, an excerpt in my blog above.
11. I was feeling so relieved.
12. Deep inside my soul, I am saying, 'the Almighty is answering to all our prayers.'
13. Dear, I am conveying all my good prayers to my loving one.
