BBQ and Picnic at Padawan

A marvelous weekend was spend with good laugh and fun with friends at a beautiful stream at Kampung Benuk, Padawan. It a potential place to be a nature tourism spot.

We start our journey at 8.30 am by going to breakfast, as we were informed by my friend to be at the meeting point at 9.30 am... we rush and at the end all of us meet at 10.30 am but have a good fun drive.

A view of the mountain range at Padawan before we turn into the access road to the picnic spot.


We park our car at our friend's house and walk a bit to the picnic spot. Then we set up the portable tent by the side of the stream.


Nice and welcoming, cool stream water which is not deep and the water current is not strong, suitable for kids to swim in.


Our friends with their kids searching for river snail (Tekoyong in the local language).
Our friend trying his luck fishing at the stream. The fish is biting but unfortunately did not catch any fish.

A good swim at the stream.

BBQ was planned for during this picnic. We had BBQ lamb and cat fish (Ikan keli). we also have pansuh ikan keli (A traditional way of cooking by putting the fish and ingredience into the bamboo).
Yummy...yummy stuff. left me alone doing the BBQ as they are having fun in the stream.
