Desaru Trip

All set to go for the short trip @ Desaru Sebana Cove with Chew Family.
Day one
Took a ferry from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal @ 1150 and arrived at Sebana Cove around 1300. Upon arrival, we clear the custom within Sebana cove marina... what a breeze...no need to quene and save time. Check into our resort which have quite a big room (hee...forget to take a picture of the room) and good view of the swimming pool with yacht behind them. Then we have our lunch ... food are okay but very slow. Probably we are hungry blah.


Then we went on to the Ostrich Farm... Ostrich Farm are very local and it is ard 25 to 30mins away from the resort. It costs us about RM 64 for 4 adults and 2 children with transport quite worth it. The ostrich farm tour are very interesting. First we are greet by the Ostrich egg. Wow...it is really big and it have served up to 25 adults lor. Not joke. Besides, the egg can withstand weigh upto 100Kg. But my little boy don't dare to stand it worry he will break it.
After the tour, we were recommended by the local to tried the Ostrich meat...taste nice but kind of funny to eat them after seeing the ostrich... : P
According to the tour guide, there are 7 Treasures in an Ostrich.

Ostrich Feathers
Ostrich feathers are great for making dusters. Unlike other feathers, ostrich feathers are anti-static and do not trap dust.

Ostrich Skin
Can be made into many products. Like bags, pouches and many more.

Ostrich Fats
Converted into ointments. Helps to relieve everything from skin diseases to headaches.
Ostrich Meat
Tastes a bit like beef, but more tender and apparently healthier.
Ostrich Bones and Tendons
These are boiled in soups. Help to relieve athritis, bone weakness and etc.
Ostrich Eggs
Each ostrich egg is equivalent to 25 chicken eggs. Besides, can uses the shell as attractive lamp shades.

Back to resort around 5pm then we head straight for a swim. Kids enjoy the pool play for around 1 hr and then went straight for dinner. Back to same restaurant as not much of choice luckily food are nice BUT slow. Imagine Ian have fallen asleep while waiting. Partly due to he did not take his afternoon nap lor. So we all give firefly tour amiss...
After the dinner, Ian woke up and went back the room to rest. But Ian is very awake and still want to play. Sigh.. So have to let him play for awhile lor. Before bedtime, ian drank around 500ml of milk and about to settle him into bed, this naugthy fellow just jumps around and start playing with curtain, switches and light bulb which he end up kana scolding and beating from his daddy. Of course, Ian vomitted lor not only on himself but also on me and the floor. So we both don't have our pyjamas hence just wear our T-shirt and short .... damn cold lor. Instead of relaxing i'm busy cleaning up the messy...so sian...
Did Damien watch too much of Titanic?
Victory....for what?
Huh nice view but not sure what Ian is trying to express???

Day Two
Sleep till 8.30am then went for breakfast at the same restaurant. Nothing much...so have plain porridge, eggs and bread. Then we went to FRUIT farm which turned up to be Fruit cum animal farm. See numbers of fruits plantation before we are stop at the fish pond. The kids were very exciting to see so many fish in the pond and wanted to feed them. Think we spent at least 15mins there. Then visit the Mango tree, Durian tree, Bee, Jambu, Coffee plant and the animal farm. Well, the kids simply loves it. From feeding the goats, touching the little animal like chick, and rabbit to owls, snake and many more.
After the tour, we are given a presentation on the bee/honey. Of course, we did purchase a bottle of honey after dear Ian said he like it. Then we went on to enjoy our FRUIT FEAST.
Once back to the resort, we head straight to the room again to wash up and take a nap then go for a dip in the pool later. Some how all of us just give up and sleep abit longer to beats the heat.
Around 3.45pm we check out as we don't have any lunch. Hubby goes and "Tabao" french fries for lunch...and it still takes us 15mins lor. Then take a 4.45pm ferry back to Singapore...
