We set up the sleeping area and caught up with some conversation.

At the same time, the man revealed his shaft-driven folding bike from Beixo, a Dutch company.

The bike is selling for RM3.5K and only one working sample is available in the Klang Valley.

We went out to the mamak stall for a round of tea where I took advantage of the time and outing to get some drinking water.

Later at the shophouse, I set up the bikes and made sure that its able to perform for the round-island ride in Pangkor..

With the humidity in the air, I could barely sleep.

The heat caused my nose to drip and man, it was a night of suffering.

Nevertheless, we weathered the night and woke up at 5am in the morning.

That was my queue to hit the toilet and bathroom.

The bikes were already rigged up and as daybreak approaches, I got a glimpse of the Marina Island development.

This is a township on its own, self-sufficient.

But I guess its kinda in the slump as there were no big developments in the area.

Lumut, as it seems, is not ready to grow, but I think in the years to come, this will be the place.

Patric suggested a boat ride from the Marina's ferry terminal which is about 1km away from his shophouse.

After locking up the place, we set out to the ferry terminal.

To use the Marina ferry services, one must be a member of the Marina Club. That is the pre-requisite requirement.

Its a yearly RM10 fee and a return fare to Pangkor (about 10-mins boat ride) is RM10.
