Redang Trip 2010, Day 1

I have plan this Redang Trip a month ago, so here is it..the day has come.
We go Pulau Redang by Bus from Ipoh to Terengganu, so the bus started to pick us up at Mobil, Bercham on 9.30pm 17th July(Fri Night). We sign in for the travel agent package, so the bus will pick up other passenger at Tasek & Chemor and off to the Gerik Highway to Terengganu on 10.15pm. We reach Terengganu at 6.10am and off to the Bus Station to pick up my brother frens from JB. Then we have our breakfast at Terengganu China Town on 6.30am...as we know chinese ppl in Terengganu only consists of 10% of the population, so in order to have Chinese food we need to go china town...

China Town @ Terengganu

Left: Terengganu Roti Bakar, Right: Wan Tan Mee

As the advertisement in front of the Chinese Restaurant show the Roti Bakar of Terengganu style, my brother order one of it and i order the 'Wan Tan Mee'. The Roti Bakar is quite nice but the wan tan mee is so small portion n is taste so so only n it cost RM3, quite expensive compare to Ipoh.

We stay at Redang Bay. At 1st our trip shud stay in Beach Resort but due to fully booked, so no choice we have to go for Redang Bay which is cheaper than Beach Resort.
