Weekend away in Kuantan

1 Malaysia holidays should be celebrated like this. Different race, culture and nationality going somewhere and having some fun. That's exactly what we did. Well with a little purpose in it.

 The weekend was planned to head to Teluk Cempedak, Kuantan to participate for Ache Brasil Capoeira's 3rd Batizado (graduation). It was at the beach the whole time. Very hot, very windy and very fun trip all in all. With Malaysians off all races, malay, chinese, indian to other nationalities like Brasil, Africa, France and Canada.  Having a traditional outfit bbq party, to driving to Cherating to waking up the french boys for a day of fun :) Here are some pictures to share.
Even the Brazilian wore baju Melayu

EVIL French boys had their own private pool in their villa

Its time to wake them up
Kevin was not as happy as Younes to be woken up
Well everyone came out at the end.....
And loads of fun...

Of course we raided the private pool


WEEeeeee

The getaway girls!


 My review on this trip is simple 


Teluk Chempedak, Kuantan is fun filled with local cultures and families around. It is more packed with people and there are night shoppings and cheap food. But if you are planning for a sun tan in your bikini and some quiet time, i would not recommend this to you.


Cherating, Kuantan is a more relaxing place with lesser crowd on the beach and more foreigners. The water is clean and is plan tranquility. Food is more expensive though and not as much culture to experience :)
