Things to Do  

A relaxing afternoon

A relaxing afternoon, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  But it doesn't always have to be stormy weather in the afternoon, it can be beautiful and calm too, like I had on this day. It is wonderful to just walk around and find the perfect bench close to the beach and see the sun LAZZZZILY go down.... it won't be long before the sun... 

Fun in the sea

Fun in the sea, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  When you go a little further into the sea you will hit the waves, and they can at times be quite high, hahaha, really fun to play with. Especially the last day we had quite some high waves. No time to be LAZZZZY here, you have to pay attention all the time. I forgot a few... 

The trip continues....

The trip continues...., Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  So off we are to our next destination.... The trip continues.... I can't be LAZZZZZY all the time :-))Well I guess this has been a very LAZZZZY page, hahaha, I wonder how many times I have written this word down. But I think I most have broken some kind of record, LOL :-))... 

Escape the LAZZZZINES?

Escape the LAZZZZINES?, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  If you want to escape the LAZZZZINES of the resort, you can make a choice of lots of excursions. There is a little shop where you can book all kinds of daytrips, two-days, a week, or whatever you feel like. There are unlimited possibilities. So you don't need to worry that... 

A nice drink to top off the evening

A nice drink to top off the evening, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  How about an after dinner drink? After such a LAZZZZY day and LAZZZZY evening, I think we should end it in a appropriate way. In the lobby lounge 'The Horizon' they have a nice seating area, with lots of LAZZZZY chairs where you can sit down and relax. Just order a drink and... 

Dessert Monster

Dessert Monster, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Okay..... back to reality.... confession time. Yes, you read the title right.... it's me.... I am a dessert monster! :-)) Hahaha, I just loooove desserts! And they had a really good dessert buffet here. This is not the place for LAZZZZY dessert people, only for the real... 

Playing our song....

Playing our song...., Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  LAZZZZZY and relaxed after dinner, the band came to our table to play our song...... Such a romantic moment...... 

A wonderful dinner together

A wonderful dinner together, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Another evening, another restaurant. After another of those LAZZZZZY days we had a wonderful dinner. I think my smile says it all, we had a wonderful time :-) 

Italian Restaurant

Italian Restaurant, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Time for dinner! There are several restaurants at the resorts that you can choose from, so plenty of choices of what and where to eat. The LAZZZZY people might not want to walk that far and take the first restaurant they meet: The Italian restaurant. And well, that is not a... 

The pool area in the evening

The pool area in the evening, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  The swimming pool area is beautifully lit up. No one is swimming though, hahaha, LAZZZY people ;-)It is nice to walk around the resort in the evening though. I especially enjoyed it after dinner. Stretching my legs a bit, strolling around in the wonderful tropical warmth and... 

It never gets dark at Nexus

It never gets dark at Nexus, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  The day never ends at Nexus. The sun might have gone done, but there is light everywhere. Even the palm trees get an extra bit of attention. So forget about being LAZZZZY in your room, it is time to see the resort in a total 'new' sort of light :-) 

The sunset

The sunset, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  The sky turns orange, my camera clicks, a sigh, life is wonderful. Amazingly there is hardly anyone on the beach (just like during the day actually). Just wonderful. Listening to the waves, sand creeping between my tows while I LAZZZZILY stroll around, the wonderful colours... 

The sunset

The sunset, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  I was so happy to see the sunset. Many of you might know that the sunset is my favourite moment of the day and I love to take photos of it. But on this trip I was a bit out of luck and this was my first chance to enjoy the sunset. And what a wonderful place to do so! Sitting... 

Not always THAT good weather

Not always THAT good weather, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Karambunai looks so idyllic, but it is not always so. The weather can change quickly here, and that is something you have to keep in mind. So when you are sitting LAZZZZZZILY on the beach and you see that beautiful blue sky turn into dark blue on the other side of the... 

Ducks have the right of way! LOL

Ducks have the right of way! LOL, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Just a funny picture here :-) I had to laugh so much when we walked around at the golf course. This group of ducks clearly decided that THEY had the right of way, hahaha, and they made a lot of noise to make clear that WE had to wait... kwak, kwaak, kwak, kwaaak :-)So we... 

Only allowed with golf buggy!

Only allowed with golf buggy!, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Worried that your being-LAZZZZY image might be damaged by playing golf? Well, don't worry too much. You can always explain to everyone that you raced around the golf course in a golf buggy. So the real 'physical' element of walking around several kilometres has been cut down... 

A round of golf maybe?

A round of golf maybe?, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  Something I really wanted to do, but never got to do, as I was tooo busy being LAZZZZZY, was playing a round of golf. I did take a quick look at the golfcourse though and it looked great. Now I am home I regret not haven given it a try. Oh well, maybe a next time :-))A round... 

The gardens and the beautiful flowers

The gardens and the beautiful flowers, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:  The day is coming to an end, it is getting a bit cooler outside, and so the perfect time to go for a LAZZZY stroll through the gardens. It is amazing to see some of the flowers, so beautiful! This one I know, hahaha, but only in a much smaller version though and only as an... 

What to Pack  

SLR Camera

SLR Camera, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:   I had my SLR camera with me at Nexus Resort, but I preferred to use my digital in this case. I always make a choice between my digital camera and SLR depending on the place I visit, things to see, situation and light. Pro's for the digital: it is quicker to grab, cheaper... 

Electrical appliances

Electrical appliances, Kampong Karambunai

 sim1 Says:   With all this digital equipment it is important to have fully charged batteries all the time! And I have to say that went perfectly during my trip. In Malaysia they use 240 volts and 50 Hz. It is a rectangular blade plug (see picture)Beware : an adapter by itself will not...
