Tranquil Teluk Pelanduk near Linggi

Also from the February 2010 picture file...


Mid February, me and wife made a little trip to a bay called Teluk Pelanduk in Negeri Sembilan...


Situated some distance south-east of the resort beach of Port Dickson and its quite maddening holiday crowd, it offers a tranquil escape from the hustle bustle of city life and everything else.


Teluk Pelanduk is actually closer to the mouth of the Linggi river. For the record, the river, at least for half its length, is a natural border between the states of Negeri Sembilan and Melaka...


A zoom to the south from the spot I was standing at to take the previous picture shows the floating restaurant which lies off the village of Kuala Linggi in Melaka. Kuala is the Malay word for estuary and thus Kuala Linggi means the estuary of the Linggi river...



We drover further south-east to savour more tranquil views...




That's when we came across an interesting looking food-stall and decided to have tea. By the way it was way past 6 pm then...





Ah. That's my dear wife and baby...






This food-stall has its own calming aura being situated at such a nice spot besides the open waters that is the Straits of Melaka.






We went further south-east and saw this little island. If not for the fact that it was almost dusk, I would certainly take the time to cross the small wooden bridge to get on it...





From here we could get a closer view of the hills at Kuala Linggi...





Oh. Anyway this trip to Teluk Pelanduk, our first ever was made so that we could join the wife's secondary school reunion at a nearby resort. This is the only picture I took from the meet. That's all! :]
