Day 186: Perhentian islands
The curiosity about this island is that you have electricity during fixed hours: 7pm – 8.30 am, 10 am – 2pm. It means when they shut up the electricity in the morning, if you don’t have air con special conditions and like us, have a fan in the room – the fan will shut up and you will wake up sweating from the heat at around 9 am…:-D
Together with Ruben we have to cross the jungle and reach the other beach, called Coral bay, where we start our Open water course. This road leads from Long Beach to Coral bay and it was made 2 weeks ago, before you have to go through the forest.
Going through the forest you can see lots of huge lizards (even between the bungalows you can see sometimes some of them wondering around). They are supposed to be harmless, but anyway, I tried to keep a bit of a distance haha
So the course has officially started!!
Fist thing is to learn about equipment….
And then start fist exercises in the water, just at 1,5 meters depth
Ruben and his Buddha :D
And later relax, have dinner and some drinks in the Spanish bar!
