Weather was pretty cooling..,small raindrops and windly morning.
Had toasted bread and warm soya milk for breakfast...Waiting for cabby "uncle" to give me a ride to the Fu Gang harbor...Along the way, I saw some arigculture farm, of course will ask the driver. Driver told me is either rice or "Ping Lang" As the weather here is much more cooling so it is suitable to grow these.
As I was rushing to the harbor, no extra time to stop by and shot...abit of regret for not sharing!
Arrived at the habor, very crowded and alot of youngsters..All heading to this "Devil Island". I approached the counter for help and managed to contact the host. Seems the host is too busy and forget to make arrangement. I foot my own ferry ticket to the island. 1-way ticket cost around SGD 20.
Unloaded my heavy backpack and walked to the end of the ferry to catch the scenery. During the journey, one of the uncle caught my attention and we began to chat. He introduced me "Devil Island" and their life there. Simple and easy life style.... Out of sudden, uncle shouted extremely out...think till his top of this voice!. Dolphin!!! I saw them! jumping up and down happily from the "black sea"! Their speed was extremely fast and I couldn't even manage to catch a few shots! Arghhh... Uncle told me if you are lucky, sometimes can even see the whale splashing water out! OMG! This is the natual that I have never encounter!


Arrived at the harbor, the host not showing up ....kinda of lost to me. Forturnately an aunite (around her mid 50) approached me and offer me help. Doubtful and fear? But my guts told me just follow and look around. Auntie drove me to her apartment. Aunite owns a hostel and offer a good rate (SDG 22/night) to stay at her place. And my room is facing the ocean view and very cooling. I took this deal and stayed over. Aunite drove me around the nearby estate and telling me place to get cheap stuff.Beside that, she drove me back to the harbor to pick up tourist. Great exposure! After meeting up to 2 french ladies and heading back to the hostel. I gave them maps translate to them the places of interest (since aunite not good in english).
After some introduction, I started to walk around the estate to explore myself. Exhuasted but managed to see some parts of nice scenery. Feel free to commend. Thank you.
