Boating at Lac Beauvert

This post was first published on August 16, 2014, on one of my older blogs. Decided to repost it here at Her Little Guilty Pleasures due to the reasons that I mentioned in this post.

Went boating for the first time in my life. Menggelabah tak habis sebelum pergi sebab tak pandai berenang. Walaupun ada life jacket, masih rasa takut juga. I'm not a risk taker and I don't like doing things that I consider dangerous. But, alhamdulillah, everything went well. Errrr, sort of I guess :)

Overly excited us :p
Update in 2019: Still one of my favourite pictures of that summer :)

Went there with my colleagues and we decided to rent the biggest canoe known as Clipper Boat as there were seven of us. Sebelum naik, dah siap pesan dekat my colleagues supaya jangan main-main sangat dekat boat tu, and please paddle well. Farah oh Farah -_-

Oh, well. What did you expect from a group of beginners eh? Mula-mula, okay je. Dapatlah sampai ke tengah Lac Beauvert. Lepas tu, berhenti dekat tengah-tengah lake sebab nak tangkap gambar. Then, nak paddle balik dock. But guess what? Canoe tu dok berpusing je dan kami asyik langgar tebing. Guests yang ada semua galak menggelakkan kami.

Tapi, alhamdulillah, at least boat kami tak terbalik ke, apa ke. Dan, alhamdulillah, dapat luangkan masa dekat Lac Beauvert yang cantik sangat-sangat dan dapat spent masa dengan kawan-kawan dekat sini sebelum masing-masing pergi membawa haluan masing-masing lepas ni :)

Air Lac Beauvert yang jernih sangat-sangat sebenarnya.
Setiap kali tengok pun rasa nak menangis ㅠㅠ

  3. Ya Allah jernih betul air dekat sini. Nani pernah ada bad experience buat aktiviti macam ni. Hahah! Masa tu dekat tasik, tetiba bila dah sampai dekat tengah boleh pulak bot bocor & nak tunggu bot yang lain sampai tu lama kemain. Hahah! Sejak pada tu memang jadi serik.
