“Wake up in the morning feeling like P. Diddy (hey, what up girl?)…” Ke$ha Tik ToK.

Was I feeling like P. Diddy? I woke up a little disoriented after Rizma‘s voice kept chanting “Bella.. Bella..” somewhere in the distance at 7o’clock in the morning. I opened my eyes and the first thing I heard was flapping of water and for a split second I imagined I was on a 5-star cruise in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Hmm.. Maybe that’s how P. Diddy feels every time he wakes up in his private yatch!

I walked out to the balcony right next to my bed and beheld a beautiful shining morning and a high tide water right under my feet. I don’t want to imagine how it would look like if it were any higher.

"Bila Bila Restaurant from pool corner"

Waited for Siti and Fie for breakfast but it seemed the two ladies overslept – no doubt because of the super comfy bed, fluffy pillows and soft dewy comforters enveloping them throughout the night. If Rizma didn’t wake me, I think I would’ve overslept too. We had breakfast at Bila Bila (Malay word translated as “anytime”) Restaurant, right next to the Infinity Pool and very nearby my room. Breakfast at Bila Bila is from 6.30am – 10.30am. The Bila Bila restaurant serves a huge variety of cold starters, poolside food, international and local cuisines and desserts until late night. Maybe that’s why it is called “anytime” so that you can come here whenever you feel you need a snack. Oh, and there’s karaoke at night too.

We were told the night before that after breakfast, there will be water sport activity at the Smiley Beach. Activities at Smiley Beach opens daily from 9.30am – 6pm but at this time of year, we’re told that the high tide will only last until around 11 o’clock so if we want to try out water sports such as sailing, kayak, windsurfing and such, we have to be early. So at about  10 o’clock, all 24 of us set out for Smiley Beach.

(I then found out blogger Rose had to withdraw due to health issues. )
