Sg Lembing & Awana Kijal

I'm glad that I had the time to join this trip ... Lost and de-motivated lately, this trip really comes at the right time ...


Our first group trip of the year in 2008 is to Sg Lembing and Awana Kijal.


Sungai Lembing is a tin mining town 42 km northwest of Kuantan in Pahang, Malaysia. Per local legend, the local ruler saw a vision of a spear in the nearby river and thus named his town after this vision. Until the 1970s, Sungai Lembing was a major producer of underground tin.


Well, Sg Lembing is also Addy's hometown and the main attraction or the objective of this trip was to see the rainbow at the waterfall ... For some, they wanted to sit on the rainbow and slide down from there too :P However, Rain kept on following us and we end up seeing a smaller waterfall ...



We supposed to see this instead of this (see below)



Although the waterfall is small, i was having fun walking along the stream ... Cool water tingling my feet ... The feeling was great ...



This is how the underground mine look like ... They were among the largest and deepest in the world.



Entrance to the underground mine ... It was closed but it also served as a place for some creature as home ... wink wink ...





while waiting for our cars ...

after sg lembing, we proceed to our next destination awana kijal, seaside ... wee wee ... on the way, we stop by a temple and walked into a dragon (from the back to the head) ... Says that we will be able to change our luck ... Hopefully, it is for the best for all of us la ... If not, chiak lak la ...

Teluk Cempedak, place where we stopped for lunch ... I wonder why it is call Teluk Cempedak, no cempedak around also ... hehehe ...

After a few hours drive, we finally reached our destination ... Awana Kijal ... Such a peaceful place ... Nice beach ... Fell in love with it ... Will definitely come and visit you again arr ... :)
