Danz,
Appreciate your effort to organize another trip. Hope your
condition had improved after the cruise.
I’m ok to go by coach or plane. if by coach, can we leave
on 4/11 nite, eve of Deepavali, and arrive KT early morning?
How much additonal to pay for the cruise and spa?
james
James,
Appreciate your concern, I am okay as long as I keep to the medication. Most time I skipped having breakfast which is not the right thing to do.
Depending on the response and consensus we may leave on the date suggested. It cost about RM90-120 for a full body massage per hour basis. The Lake Cruise per person is about RM60.00.
We have an option to go by air or coach. As the journey to and from by coach is much longer, an additional day is included.
Dan
Danz,
Thanks for yr consideration.
What I’m suggesting is if travel by coach, leave on 4/11
nite and return on 7/11 as planned. If we leave on 5/11 and
return on 8/11, it would mean taking a day leave for
those working. If we leave on 4/11 nite, we should be able
to be in KT by 10am and on Sun 7/11 leave at 11 am and
reach SG by 10pm, so no need to take any leave.
Appreciate you can take this into consideration if going by
coach.
James,
Thanks for the good suggestion, yes we will depart on Thursday night by coach on November 4,2010.
The cost of S$260.00 by van consists of $140.00 for cost of transportation and $120.00 for two nights stay at the chalets. Any excess charge will be refunded. We need a minimum of 10 pax to go!
A note on the chalet, it’s built like a treehouse, the room are spacious and the bathroom area is just as large as the bedroom. Getting to the chalet is by buggy only and all chalets have a good view of the late.
Dan
Rats! I’m not in good enough condition to go galavanting in the great outdoors yet. Oh well, maybe another time.
Enjoy yourselves, people. while I stay home sulking and salivating ….

I remember you were the first person who put together the first kelong trip. Well, we will miss you coming to join us for this trip.
Dan
Danz4joy!
Wah!…sound very tempting..but not perfect timing for me le,as i have prior plans with my family oredi..hhmm
Nonetheless…i would suggest travel by air is a better option..thinking of our tender age la…too long journey by coach can be quite tiring & backache..dont u think?..ooppss!
Hi Nor,
No worries, there always another times! Yes, definitely most would prefer to go by plane.
Dan
Hi Dan,
Hope you’re feeling better. Thanks for organizing this trip which I’d loved to go but have already made plans to travel during that week – maybe next time you can organize another one again as I’ve not been to Taman Negara, heard so much about the waterfalls etc. Wish everyone an enjoyable trip. Take care and have fun. Rgds, Lisa O
Hi Lisa,
I am okay and up and about, thanks. Yes I am sure most would have made plan for their holidays well in advance. We need ten pax to make it happens, otherwise may re-schedule for next year.
I am still trying to get a lower fare and now in negotiation with Firefly.

Dear Dan,
I would have joined you for this trip if I had not been committed to 3 other trips already. Is this lake in eastern Malaysia?
I will definitely try and join in if you organise this again next year. Meanwhile take care and keep the enthusiasm burning!
Dear Cat,
No worries, we may re-schedule for March next year if the response is poor. Yes, it is in eastern part of Malaysia.
Still keeping to my medication and taiji, I will not be deny my zest for life and the spices of life!

The 260,000 hectares lake contains 340 islands, with countless pristine cascading waterfalls and rivers from which flows crystal clear water from the surrounding highlands. Blessed with extensive biodiversity. Lake Kenyir borders western fringe of Taman Negara, providing nature-based activities for the adventurous traveller!
Dan
Dear folks,
The trip to Lake Kenyir scheduled on November 4-7 by coach at $260,00 is not getting good response.
We decided to bring the date forward to October 28-30, 2010 to take advantage of the lower fare on return flight direct to Kuala Tregganu which includes all breakfast and meals at $250.00 only!
Hope this would interest some of you.
