Finally the bus came ard 6.30am n many of us rushed to get the better seats. After siting down, i realised tat tis tour grp has many tourist from other countries.. for example Korea n Thailand. Nick sat next to a korean women lah.

After all the check-ins @ the Check-point, Ard 8am We had our Breakfast @ a local coffee shop, I ordered tis Da Bao which was realli huge!! hahas for the first time i actualli needed a spoon to eat the bao hahas. As usual mum ordered alot of food..haiz. As my mum n nick went to the bakery, i went to the next door 7eleven to purchase a bottle of mineral water. While browsing thru, saw many types of bottles while singapore dun have.. was attempted to buy.. but second thought better not as i still got a long day ahead.

8.30am.. The bus stopped @ a tibits stall.. nick saw tis preserved mandarin peel n bought alot of it.. i was wondering y as the packaging looks familiar.. it was onli when my mum told me that tis is also sold in NP at 70cents per packet.. Here they were selling at RM2 for 3 packets.. SOO CHEAP!!. mum saw her favourite dodo hahas

As the bus was early, Our tour guild allowed us to do some shopping at the nearby shopping malls n market.. but for my family, we didnt buy anything as there were nothing special.. practically all clothes.

Had our dinner @ 6.30pm then ard 8pm.. all of us assembled again to board the boat to c the fireflies..
Finalli ard 9pm.. my family got onto the boat.. its was like a 5mins ride b4 we saw the fireflies..
