My Short Holiday in Senai & The Final Flight of the "Yellow Banana"

1st of Feb, right after Chinese New Year. The time where most of the people are returning back to work, early in the morning, I packed my flight bag, my overnight backpack, my trusty riding jacket, my helmet and headed down to my trusty bike.

I don't really wear my riding jacket if I am moving around in Singapore, and with my riding jacket on, it could only mean one thing. It means that I am riding into Malaysia, specifically - Senai to carry on my flying lessons.

The journey was very smooth, no jams during the custom which really surprised me. Maybe all the malaysian bikers have not returned back to Singapore for work. I cleared the customs in a jiffy and carry on my journey down the 2nd link highway. Nice breeze and very fresh air.


"The Yellow Banana"












Upon reaching the club, I found out that the plane which I usally flies has met up with an accident and it requires repairs. Kinda disappointed though, had to make do with the smaller size plane, the Cessna 150 aka Yellow Banana, due to its colour paintwork. The cockpit is small and cramp as compared to the Cessna 172 which I frequently flies. I also learned that the "Yellow Banana" had been sold by her owner and it maybe her last flight with the club. I was also glad that I managed to fly her before she is gone.
End of the day, after all the flying is over. Finally!! I get to check in to the resort hotel. Maybe even get a decent meal or something.

After getting the key, I went up to my room. I was awe by the size and the interior decor. It was much better than what I had expected. The room is damn nice and cosy. It had a very nice view to the pool and I really like it. Too bad I am sleeping alone. Hahahahaha.

The resort is really a nice place to relax, its has a few restaurants inside, serving a variety of foods. It has a very pool with a bar attached, tennis courts, squash court, a poorly equipped gym, bowling alley, olympic size swimming pool and a spa. Last but not least a well equipped golf course, I don't know how many holes cos I don't play nor understand the game.

For sure, I will definitely return back to the resort for another stay!
