A bitter sweet ride: First sweet escape of 2012

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim,

Tetiba pulak macam takde masa nak hapdet blog. Been a little bz bee lately dengan kerja-kerja ofis yang semakin menuntut perhatian dan menghampiri dateline. Anyway masih jugak sempat ber-vacay, actually a short holiday dengan family last weekend. Dekat mana tuuu...hehe. Dekat PD je sempena my other half kena attend team building kat sana for 3 days. So, disebabkan tak nak keboringan dekat rumah on the weekend, we decided to follow him, sharing a 3 room apartment hotel at Regency Tanjung Tuan Beach Resort with 2 of his colleagues' family. Regency is a hotel apartment, tiada standard room macam hotel-hotel biasa.

We were lucky sebab masa check-in tu, we were informed that 3 room apts all have been fully booked despite the successful booking that we have already made 2 days before. Nak tak nak diaorang pun upgrade to 4 room apartment...yahooo!! Memang puas hati dengan harga yang sama dengan 3 rooms apartment, the interior was spacious, budak2 memang boleh lari 100meter dalam tu....ngeeee:) Since kami satu family yang sampai paling awal, so managed to take the master bedroom overlooking the beautiful and clean beach. Paling best dapat menikmati pemandangan sunset yang sangat cantik right from our balcony....subhanallah.

Day 1 which is Friday, sampai dah petang dekat waktu Asar and my other half terus kena attend dia punye kelas. Luckily the other family arrived and kita orang just duduk sembang-sembang, sesi ice-breaking....haha since we barely known each other. Pernah jumpa sekejap-sekejap je masa event company Heitech Padu sebelum ni and sangat bersyukur dapat se-apartment dengan orang yang boleh ngam dengan kita. FYI, this is the first time actually I stayed overnight in PD, malu nak ngaku sebenarnya. Biasa pergi sana balik hari je.

What I appreciate the most during this short sweet escape is, the ukhuwah yang baru terjalin bukan sahaja between me and the wives of my other half colleagues, tapi jugak antara anak-anak masing-masing. Lagi satu yang paling best, boleh relax sebenar-benar relax. Memang santai habislah even tho kat PD je. The kids pon were enjoying themselves to the max playing in the pool and the beach. Pantai pun sangat bersih dan swimming pool memang dijaga oleh petugas yang menjalankan tugas dengan sangat baik especially making sure the small kids did not jump into the deeper pool. That is why la mak budak boleh relax, tak payah nak susah-susah memantau budak-budak ni sangat...hehe. Definetely gonna be one of my fav apartments hotel in PD disebabkan faktor ini.

FYI, kalau tengok dari luar apartment ni memang buruk dan macam bangunan lama dengan aircond compartment dari luar memang nampak sangat perlukan refurbishment tapi interior memang sangat OK. Makanan pun not bad, kira kategori sedap jugakla. We were treated with masakan kampung for lunch and BBQ for dinner. Semuanya alhamdulillah ditanggung beres termasuklah harga untuk 3 days 2 night stay berjumlah RM 1300.00. Terkejut beruk la jugak semua yang berkenaan bila ada someone VIP dah tolong setelkan bil. Alhamdulillah rezeki anak-anak dan kami semua juga. Kebetulan masa hari dia bayarkan tu dia ada menumpang apartmen kami untuk solat sempena kehadirannya sebagai special guest. Mungkin sebagai menghargai komitmen pekerja dia yang menyambut ketibaan beliau kot....hahaha.

Anyway, a memorable vacay is not complete without some pictures, right. So, let's get the pics speak :)
