Avillion, Port Dickson, Day I (Part 3)



Paper work, registration cum checked-in had done. We're now on our way from Level Three i.e. Hotel Main Lobby to Level One, to go to the Acheh Water Chalets.End of this passage way, the lift is on the right hand.
Riau Beach is on the left as we walked toward the lift.Not the best for me, Tumasek Beach is better.
As proud as a peacock,indeed!This animals farm allows Avillion guests to feed the animals at 10am daily.
Alright, a few steps will leads to my Water Chalet. Do you like the scene in Avillion so far?
My room was 821. C'mon in, allow me to show you more.
See!! That was Water Chalet. Quite impressive.Wait no more, have a look at the view out the balcony.
More Water Chalets, the white roof building is the SPA and facing the Straits of Malacca sea.
The Water Chalet with potted trees is the Premium Water Chalet. So, much more bigger than the one I'm staying.I'm not complaining as I'm satisfied with what was given.
Oh no!, another pose.
PS decided to join me in the posing too.
This day bed was PS's night bed on her first night then it was mine the night after.

All the water chalets are sitting on stilts above sea waters.The Acheh point was my water chalet for the 2nights and 3 day stay (November 31st till December 2nd '09)
This is the front of my chalet where PS stood.
As we stepped into the room, the serene caught my immediate attention.
PS was showing that she's going to sleep well in her chosen bed.
The layout of the Water Chalet. Guess what is behind the blue glass door?
It is the open sky bathroom.
Bathtub for individual preference.
Wash basin for his and hers.Oops, PS was blocking the 2 basins from viewing.
Open sky showering
If it's rain, shower with raindrops but during night time, will be able to enjoy the moonlight during night bath.

This is Water Chalet, Avillion Port Dickson. The room looks great, isn't it? I simply loved it and I don't know how about you.I know that I'll be making full use of it.
Excuse me, HB! Don't you think that you're using my netbook and I need it to upload photos into my blog.
Good friends forever on my favourite spot in the Water Chalet.
I'll always bear in mind of this day bed whenever I need a place for quiet relaxation.
HB and I, the most important persons for PS
The irresistible white mosquitoes netting.
Neat mosquitoes netting tied up as part of it's decoration.
White as snow background as PS lets down the mosquitoes netting before bed.
While HB was having his dinner, photo session was going on in the room.

Light House in Tanjung Tuan

How many of us knew of the light house existence and it's history behind it? According to the stated board, Tanjung Tuan or Cape Rachado ( name given by the Portugese) is situated in the state of Malacca. Has a Light House facing the Straits of Malacca. And what follows in the board, then you need to make a trip here to read it yourself.Won't be interesting anymore if I were to reveal it all to you.Sorry readers!

Five of us which were HB, PS, two friends and I intended to take the 1km walk to see the Light House.
Names needed to be registered before the walk could begin.
The journey to the Light House was not easy. The way was steep but none of us give up and with determination, we continued our walk till the end.
Oh no! still not there yet. Never mind, we are able to make it to the top.
Came across the board of historic name of birds which migrates here.
There's even a pathway for bird watcher if you are one of them.
It had brighten our day. We were able to see the Light House. Just a few more steps and we're at the foot of the Light House soon.
The ever standing proud Light House. Notice the small booth for resting next to the staircase.
Tanjung Tuan Light House is the oldest light house in Malaysia. It stands on the highest point of the cape and was build in 1860. Also believed that , Parameswara the first sultan of Malacca, was buried in the area.
From the foot of it, we climbed up the staircases to take a look at the view from the top.
As I looked up, the Light House was indeed tall in height.

This highest point scene reminds me of Uluwatu, Bali
