Part 2 : Club Med - Day 2


Journal Entry 232


We started Day 2 on a free and easy mode. 

Woke up at 8 in the morning . Got the rest to wake up as well so that we can have more time for the day.  Did not really see the morning side of the village when we arrived yesterday ; therefore, we quickly bathe and got ourselves ready for some breakfast & sightseeing.


The garden walkway to the lobby


Again, the loooooong walk to the lobby to get our breakfast. As we walked towards the cafes, we were being greeted by the main pool of the club where the main water activities of the day were held. It was fun watching the kids enjoying themselves playing and soaking in the water. Anyhow, as hungry as we were - we adjourned to the breakfast buffet spread for the day. Again, way too many choices  and my take is that if you have never been to Club Med,  the buffet spread will sure to impress you. I kid you not !!


Done with breakfast, the girls suggested the Zen pool which was located quite far from the main lobby,. The pool were only meant for adults and kids were not allowed. Anyhow, I did not managed to swim as my 'aunty' came to visit (##$%$%%). Talk about pure coincidence. We spent around an hr there before we hit the beach.

The sands were very soft & the boys decided to play with the waves this time. Scenery is alike to our Penang beaches. The sea was actually quite choppy with strong waves when we were there -could be due to the monsoon season. In fact, red flags were put up along the shore to warn  the beach goers against swimming for fear of underwater currents.  Miss Chin did not join so, I have to 'jaga' bag for them. 

Us - at the beach

We spent about an hr as well before we went back to the village for a quick bath and again, eating ! Non-stop eating. Had lunch till around 2pm before we laze at the bar. Spoke to a few GOs and guests while we checked out the afternoon activities. They had water aerobics too ! Damn, I missed it :( ..  We waited till 5pm for the flying trapeze. Miss Chin was afraid of heights, therefore did not join again (really waste money :(). Sigh, I guess the only part I can 'ganti balik' is to eat as much as I can !! The rest of them joined and it was exciting seeing hubs and Jo swinging so high !!

Swinging to left and right
Played for 2 hrs as they had to queue for their turns. We decided to stop as Bernard wanted to catch the sun before it set. It was getting dark and windy too. Anyhow, we managed to beat the rain & caught a glimpse of the sun before it sets.

The rain came and we seek shelter back at the hotel. Had a good bath and went for dinner again. Of course, we stayed back for some night shows by the GOs and got ourselves more free flow cocktails for the night.

For Day 3 and finale , stay tuned !
