(^44) Chalets Kampong Merchong – Kuantan - 111 km
Roadside stands sold various exotic cuisine - lemang was a delicacy
of sticky rice baked in bamboo. It’s a good thing I take pictures as I
sometimes think nothing happened until I look at my photos.
Someone once said: Travellers see more than they remember and
remember more than they see. I thought it a very true statement.
Kuantan was considerably larger than anticipated, featuring a
backpackers' hostel without bicycle storage. So, instead, I settled for
a guesthouse. Luckily, the place was opposite the night market, and
as I hadn’t eaten all day, I shouldn’t have gone shopping hungry.
I tried to fix the laptop’s touchpad but only broke the entire thing.
Therefore, I sought out the computer shop in the morning.
Kuantan – Kerteh - 97 km
I laughed out loud when biking out of Kuantan - the joy of moving on
and the freedom it brings can sometimes be overwhelming. I must
admit I usually have this feeling on the downhill. LOL. Although
several places of interest were sprinkled along the way, I didn’t feel
like stopping and biked until reaching Kerteh. Unfortunately,
conservative Kerteh didn’t have a considerable number of attractions.
Not even beer but a good enough bed could be found, which was all I
needed.
