At noon, I was already packing my belongings and about to say goodbye to the folks on Pangkor Island. The trip from Havana Beach Resort to Pangkor Jetty in Pangkor Town was on board a taxi. I was soon waiting to take a ferry back to Lumut.

Pangkor Trip '07 - Day 3 - A Fireworm

This post is part of the Pangkor Trip 2007 series.

Day 1	Lumut · Approaching Pangkor Island · Havana Beach Resort · Nipah Bay Beach · Dinner
Day 2	More Hornbills · Boat Ride & Pulau Giam · White Tom Yam
Day 3	A Fireworm · Back to Lumut

The morning was spent as usual at Nipah Bay Beach. There were many water sports activities there, for example jet skiing, canoeing and banana boat ride. I tried out the banana boat ride and it was great fun (sadly, no photos). Later, somebody caught a fireworm washed up on the beach using a water bottle - and I had a chance to photograph this sea creature back at my chalet at Havana Beach Resort.

The following photo and a video show the fireworm swimming in the water bottle from a top-down perspective:

Pangkor Trip '07 - Day 2 - White Tom Yam

This post is part of the Pangkor Trip 2007 series.

Day 1	Lumut · Approaching Pangkor Island · Havana Beach Resort · Nipah Bay Beach · Dinner
Day 2	More Hornbills · Boat Ride & Pulau Giam · White Tom Yam
Day 3	A Fireworm · Back to Lumut

I had today's lunch at Purnama Beach Resort, north of Havana Beach Resort at Nipah Bay. After the main course, I tasted what was called "White Tom Yam". Although "white" without a hint of spiciness, it could put your tongue on fire like a regular dish of tom yam.

The rest of the day was spent either at the beach or at the hotel. I took my dinner once again at Purnama Beach Resort during the evening.

This ended day 2 on Pangkor Island.
