CNY Picnic by the Beach

It's the 2nd day of CNY.

Instead of staying back indoor as usual, there goes the plan to have a picnic at Batu Layar beach.

It is somewhere near Desaru, 1 hour away from JB.

The long white sand beach decorated with uplifted black shale rock make it worth to visit despite the long distance away from city.

Beautiful geology at the beach.

The geology that makes great stage for photograph.

Blending in with the nature and get tanned.

Even a great escape for the old ones.

Some photography play and that's how you felt at the beach.

Watching bunch of kids playing with sand made me recalled my childhood! T.T

I used to have a bunch of cousins who build sand castle with me under the hot sun by the beach once upon a time when I was a small girl.

You must picnic by the beach!

Bring all the foods and utensils all the way from home and ...

Cut the cucumber fresh on scene...^.^

Heat your foods up on spot using the mini gas stoves! 

We even had the traditional Chinese tea hot from kettle.

(*The wind is just too strong. So, an umbrella would be great help.)

Have a sit on the thinly grassed and shaded area under the tree while enjoying the food!

Or you may bring your own comfortable chair...

That's the view you admire while having your meals.

Trust me, the more you ate, the hungrier you are. =)

Picnic was one of the often weekend activities for Malaysian as well as us when we were still small kids.

After the years, we had grown up and busy with all the academic studies or works, it became once in a blue moon activity.

But, the feeling and expectation never change!

That is Chang's family picnic style.

Relax and enjoy~

I wonder what kind of wonderful dream while napping by the beach.
