Our Kenyir Expeditions for our Merdeka Holiday

After picking up the SPIN Network from Singapore from LCCT, the coach stopped by at Ampang to pick us up to start our expedition to Kenyir.

As it is during Puasa month, we had to settle down at Termeloh for our late supper and early breakfast.

We reached Kuala Terengganu very early in the morning. The boat is ready at the jetty waiting for us on board. Joe’s Mom the Chef for our trip cooked some curry chicken with some vege for our lunch.

On the first day of our trip, we stopped in the middle of the lake and our plans was to overnight there. A very scenic view of the lake.

In the afternoon, we took a boat to Tembat Falls. A nice falls with a large pool but it’s not safe to swim in the pool as the pool is really deep and the under current is so so strong. According to our guide, that pool had took many lives. We settled ourselves at the lower part of the falls to have a nice deep.

During dinner, we had BBQ on the boat. The feeling of having BBQ on the boat is really nice. My first time BBQing in the middle of the lake on the boat.

After breakfast, the boat started the journey to Saok Waterfalls. WOW… the water level was at least more than 30 feet less than our last trip during new year.

The Saok Waterfalls is really nice. The cool refreshing water at the falls. We all had a lot of fun at the falls. Nice hydro massage at the falls.
