After visiting Union Yes Retreat & Training Centre, we headed to Sematan.
I guess it’s the weather that made the sea so blue that day. I’ve never seen such colours here even though I’ve been here quite a couple of times.
It happened to be high tide.
The famous jetty, this is one of the place to go for those who love fishing.
I’m feeling lost today, don’t know where to start.
Anyway, that’s all for now for today and hope you enjoy the photos.
Decided to check out Union Yes Retreat & Training Centre. This is latest resort(not really new but it had finally opened for public somewhere last year, previously it’s only for the members of SBEU) in Lundu which got many people talking about. The junction to go into the resort, the road was bad! Potholes everywhere -.-” At first we thought we had gone into the wrong place. Kept driving and finally saw the building.
Left: The signboard that greeted us outside the lobby.
Right: The check-in counter.
When I walked in, I was quite surprised and couldn’t believe my eyes that this is in Sarawak. I never see blue sea here! Blue sea and blue sky is not common here. This definitely blew me away for a moment. Not the blue swimming pool. Look beyond the swimming pool.
Left: The other side of the swimming pool.
Right: The main building of the resort. I just realized I forgot to include the picture of Rafflesia Cafe.
Left: The chalets.
Right: The area in front of the chalets. You can play football here.
The overall view of the building.
Left: Blue sea, blue sky, blue mountain. Nice!
Right: Fancy beach volley ball? You can get the facility here.
Another photo taken from another direction.
Left: Do you notice SBEU( Sarawak Bank Employees’ Union) on ground? This resort is actually managed by Sarawak Bank Employees’ Union, members will get special rate staying in this resort. It’s also open to the public to make reservation.
Right: Obstacle course.
The view from Sunrise Terrace.
Left: Lastly, visited the toilet before we made our way to Sematan.
Right: The shower rooms.
Too bad… No photos of the rooms available. Will see if I have the chance to go there for a holiday one of these days as my dad did mention something about going there for 2 day 1 night trip in near future. We’ll see.
You can check the rates in their website.
Going to share you the first part of my road trip last weekend. Going to show you the views that I saw when we were on the way to Lundu from Kuching.
Mountain view from somewhere in Batu Kawa.
This is one of the views fron one of the highest peaks of the road to Lundu. Very nice view right? Look at the faraway mountain.
Left: Going uphill…
Right: Finally reached the bridge. The view from the bridge. Last time, without this bridge, we had to use ferry to cross the river and usually there would be massive queue during public holidays that would take at least an hour or so to reach your turn. Sometimes we had to park our car at one of the villagers’ houses, paid them some money, then we would walk to board the ferry and then my uncle would wait for us with his van at the other end to save those waiting time. Gone are those days.
I’m sure it’s common to see such mistakes these days. “U” should be “You”. This is the case of too much SMS.
These are just some, there are quite a number of “u” in the following paragraphs.
Serious, very serious issue. Many people can’t spell properly and influence too much by such kind of shorthand nowadays that is not supposed to be used in formal or official matter. At the same time it’s quite amusing also especially when you found it from the handouts given to you by your lecturer but it’s not the lecturer who typed it, some other people typed this, the typist must have SMS a lot! *LOL*
P/S: Spotted one more but I didn’t highlight and correct ;p
I went missing the whole day, just got home few hours ago and then went out again. Only now I can sit down and online to clear some stuffs.
Went for a road trip this morning with my family. Very bright and sunny, took quite a lot of photos at Lundu and Sematan. Quite satisfied with them. For the first time I saw very blue sea! Usually it’s brownish sea and blue sky but it’s different today. Gonna share lots and lots of photos with you these few days.
While on the way back, it rained and it’s still raining now. It’s much cooler now compare to few days ago.
That’s all for now. So tired and sleepy. Good night!
