a break from madness

i badly needed a break after all the madness at work....so we drove off to mersing over the long weekend

if you ask me, the beach there is better than the ones in bintan (n comparable to bali n the thai islands). yet it has managed to escape the notice of the 'sharks', who'd no sooner transform an idyllic beach location into one pandering to the populous touristy crowd.

which is all the better for me!

plus seeing fully-clad locals swimming in the sea is a definite welcome sight than near-naked angmohs i've been accustomed to :P

to sum up the weekend: nice break..wish it was longer...but i'm not complaining.

now on to serious things....like manu winning the champions league...yeah!
