Chilling on an Tioman island

We caught the 7.30 am ferry to the island of Tioman. We had booked a place to stay with a lady that had met us off the bus (not something we would normally do). We needn't have worried though as when we arrived to Panuba Bay and checked in to the Panuba Inn Resort it was lovely. We had a room with a balcony that looked out to the ocean on a paradise island. The best part was that the room was only costing us around 11 pound a night!

It was very relaxing and as there was little to do we filled our days eating, sleeping, snorkelling, playing cards, laying in a hammock, drinking, reading, playing yatzee...it was tough!

The snorkelling was cool. I'm sure when Dave has scuba dived before he has seen more but for me it was like floating in a huge fish tank. There were so many fish to swim amongst and quite a lot of coral (some of it was dead though). There were also some purple crabs that I thought I should stay away from! Dave enjoyed jumping off the jetty (I am sure we will put the pictures on here!).

There was also an unfortunate incident where a large millipede attached itself to one of Dave's toes! He didn't seem to notice (I'm not sure how) and brought it into our room (we'll get that picture on here too!).

We met a very nice Danish couple called Maria and Thomas that we spent time with who were very cool.

We thought about staying longer but decided that there is only so much lounging around that you can do! (N)
