Marang

Hey again,

It has been a while I have not been active updating my blog. Not that I do not have time but I am just purely being lazy. Anyway, last June I decided to go for a road trip to the east coast, visiting my sister and my lovely nephew. Me, my husband with my younger sister and brother left Kuala Lumpur early in the morning with the hope we will be in Jerteh not too late in the evening. We had nice nasi kerabu for our breakfast and to give us enough energy to get going with the trip.

The toll in Gombak was quite jam. I was not sure why at first place but then quickly realise that it was school holidays so lots of people took the chance to go back to their hometown visiting their love ones.

The drive along Karak and east coast highways was not too bad. We stopped a few times just to stretch up and to go to the toilet. We decided to have our tea break in Marang, the very well known for its battered squid, fish and nice fresh coconut juice. On top of that we will get a superb view of the beach and open sea while enjoying the food. So, we decided to get going with the drive with the aim to stop in Marang for the food.

We reached Marang in the afternoon and headed straight to our favourite stall. We quickly ordered some battered squid, Keropok Lekor and some drinks. While waiting for the food we took the chance to enjoy the view and cooling fresh sea breeze. The sea breeze freshened us up a bit and we slowly rejuvenated from the long tired drive and ready for the rest of the trip.

The food came not too long after we ordered it. My younger sister and brother were really impressed with the battered squid. The portion of food is very generous and satisfying. We quickly ate our food while they were still hot and fresh. All of us enjoyed the food very much that none of us talked too much while eating.

We continued our journey after finished eating our food. We went for a quick stroll along the beach since we were just next to it. We decided to leave soon after that as we still have few more hours to go before we reached to our destination.
