Our room (they called it a "Garden View" room) was located at the corner and thus the balcony was larger than the normal rooms. Affluent Sillyporeans would find the promotional room rate of Rm230/S$100 value for money with this kind of quality. But because the Swiss Garden Resort & Spa was in the list of accommodation under my company's staff welfare scheme, I get to claim further S$50 for a night stay. Perhaps I should had taken leave and stay for another night.

Took a nap with Sara on the comfortable bed and woke up feeling all hungry. I did not really want to spend another Rm20/S$8.70 eating a bowl of beef noodles (it was not something to die for and the quantity was miserable) in the hotel's cafe. Thus, we ventured out and found a seafood restaurant (it was more of a warung-styled eatery) just 10mins walk up north along Jalan Beserah. No prizes for guessing what will happen if one put 2 hungry pigs and an inexpensive menu together. We ended up having 6 dishes on the table and it costs us only Rm27.50/S$12. The rest of the evening was spent walking along Balok Beach to exercise all the calories off.

Sara woke me up at 6.45am and we went to view the sunrise before having our complimentary breakfast. Apart from sharing the beach with a big bunch of people (they were all enjoying the sunrise), the rest of the stay here was uneventful. Did the usual check-out a 12noon and took a taxi back to Kuantan. Took Sara to the Central Market (beside Terminal Makmur) and ate noodles for lunch before we boarded our bus back to Johor Bahru at 4pm. There were nothing much significant from that point onwards and we reach Sillypore at 11pm.

On hindsight, the holiday was probably too short and I got hit really hard by the Sunday night syndrome. Felt really shitty when the bus got stuck in a traffic jam in the outskirts of Johor Bahru. Getting back to Sillypore sucks; perhaps the dreadful office had taken a toll on me. As my bus crossed over the causeway, I wonder when will all this end. It must be soon, somehow (I hope).
