On 21-24 of April 2012 once again i've repeated my trip to MABUL ISLAND but this time i went there with my beloved HUBBY.. Ok actually we just went to MABUL for 2 days 1 nite only (it is only a small island so not much activity can be done there unless u r a diver)..
Day 1 - we arrived at TAWAU airport around 6pm (its already dark there). From the airport we took an airport cab to our hotel which is the King Park hotel. The fare was RM45.00 which i think it is very reasonable as the journey took us about 45min to reach the hotel. We have a very nice chat with the taxi driver which is very friendly indeed. He even show us the popular spot to get a very nice SEAFOOD (my fav) which is facing the sea. I also ask him for a tip to get to SEMPORNA from TAWAU (here u can say the accomodation n food is cheap, but u will want to be careful in choosing your transportation as in can be so damn expensive). The nice guy told us that if we are not careful, we can be charged up to RM300 for a one way journey.. Fuhhh that is lot of money more expensive then our flight ticket!! But we are lucky as the driver is willing to offer us for only RM120 to go there and he also advise us to get on a bus to get back to TAWAU (we need to go to SEMPORNA early in the morning to catch up with the boat. Thats why we have to take the cab). Phheww.. soon we arrive at our hotel.The King Park hotel is located at the HEART of TAWAU town.. That nite we walk toward the SEAFOOD spot where the cab drive has showed to us before. It is only within walking distance from our hotel.. There are a number of restaurant which u can choose by ur own. We choose a MALAY restaurant which offer seafood and DEER soup (SUP RUSA).. SURPRISINGLY the lobster price here is only RM7 for 100g. Wow.. No way to get this price back at the PENINSULAR.. After the meal we headed back to our hotel to take our rest before start tomorrow adventure.. So excited!! (especially hubby. Hard to get him to sleep that nite. Over excited)
