Palm oil

On the way from Singapore to Mersing, we drove by palm oil plantations, I would say 90% of the time. Palm oil is being used everywhere, even on wine gums. Greenpeace on palm oil.

Dragon Island

Had a fab holiday on Tioman Island, gotta find more getaways on www.myoutdoor.com.

According to legend, Tioman Island is the resting place of a beautiful dragon princess. Whilst flying from China to visit her prince in Singapore, this beautiful maiden stopped to seek solace in the crystal-clear waters of the South China Sea. Enraptured by the charms of the place, she decided to discontinue her journey. By taking the form of an island, she pledged to offer shelter and comfort to passing travelers. [1]

Holiday

Coming up the next months and we look forward to it. First some fresh air, dark nights and sea breeze at Pulau Tioman, at Bamboo Hill Chalets and in the Boat House at Bagus Place. Second deserted roads, dark nights, rock boulders, Queensland winter coolness, high quality produce, ... in a campervan from Cairns to Brisbane.
