Kampung Kuala Nyalau revisit

We revisited Kampung Kuala Nyalau again on the way to see Batu Selungun,
the Elephant Rock of Malaysia.
It is from here that we will take our 20 minutes boat ride to the rock
where our crew member Helmi will be bringing us in his relatives boat.

The tranquil suroundings in the village.






Look who's climbing up the coconut tree,that's Helmi our host
and a hardworking shutdown crew member.



With Helmi cutting and Fazillah happily waiting for a drink.






A mini jetty used by the villagers who are mostly fishermans.






Houses here are either build on higher ground or the tradisional Kedayan style,
on stilts at least 3m above ground
for safety against wild animals and floods.







The village football field.



The community hall of the village.



The village headman(Ketua Kaum)Haji Saibi Tuah's house where we had lunch,
he is Helmi's grandfather,many thanks for the simple yet very delicious meal.



The only beach chalet in the village.







Tongkat Ali,a favourite plant in the village.



Ripe tongkat ali seeds a plenty here for the picking.

    Orang kampung di sini sungguh baik hati dan masih mengamalkan hidup bermasyarakat,tolong menolong dan bergotong royong yang semakin pupus di semenanjung.
