Finally got an appointment with a client after months of making arrangements to meet, but it was set one day before my trip to Cameron's. I was hoping it wouldnt be on the same week but life is like that sometimes.....
We left the day before the appointment right after lunch.... a smooth drive with a spot of rain here and there other than that it was a boring drive... The new Kuantan highway as my boss puts it ..has no character lah...luckily he was with me.... if not id probably get so bored i might find a tree and try and crash into it or something...
Got there around 4pm and for the love of me i cant seem to remember the name of the hotel we stayed in...(thats what happens when you write about something one month later)....hmmm ,....it looked old but well kept ...under utilized though.... it has so much of potential... Anyway it was ramadan season and becos if puasa they had a whole spread of food for buffet dinner which we enjoyed very much .... there was even a band playing typical irama melayu songs... which very fitting...
My Boss was shocked to learn that i have never ben to Teluk Cempedak .... so he decided to show me around Kuantan town and Teluk Cempedak.... I have always only stayed in Cherating Beach when i go to Kuantan... and to be honest i never really liked the beaches there....only the beaches up north from Dungun onwards are naturally beautiful... so i was really surprised to find a beautiful stretch of sand in Teluk Cempedak.... you will also find The luxurious Hyatt Regency Hotel which sits right next to the Sultan's Palace.... We ventured inside to the lounge and pool area... .... it was indeed beautiful... i wonder what the rates are....
We didnt really stay that long cos it suddenly started raining really heavily... so we headed back to the hotel...
The next morning i managed to get myself up for the sunrise..... im so glad i did.....
The breakfast spread was really disappointing cos there was almost nothing much.... the staff explained that it was fasting month and that only 5% of their guest were non malays so they didnt make a full spread.... fare enough i guess....
Our appointment was around 2pm so after breakfast we decided to go to Teluk Cempedak again to have a look see... but not before taking a detour around a Chinese fishing village....
Well like i said ....Teluk Cempedak Beach was surprisingly beautiful..... didnt really take good photos of the place.... well.... another day perhaps.....
Drove around Kuantan for a little bit before heading back to the hotel to get ready for the appointment.... left Kuantan around 3.30ish....
On the way back to KL it rained and rained and rained lah... and not to our surprise it was so jammed as we got nearer to KL...... sigh....in the stupid jam... thinking about Teluk Cempedak really helped.... but the thing that really got me thinking is this signboard in Kuantan Town....
