Our last few days at the Perhintian Islands was spent scuba diving, snorkeling, swimming, reading, watching the nightly lightening storms, and enjoying the views of neighboring islands. We both passed our scuba tests with flying colors and enjoyed a dive to a boat wreck where we saw a school of puffer fish, a huge barracuda, a lion fish, and a few scorpion fish. We tried our best to fully enjoy ourselves and I think we accomplished our goal. Each moment was wasted to its fullest extent.
Yesterday we left the Perhentian Islands and spent the day traveling by boat and bus to reach, Jerantut, the gateway to Teman Negara, Malaysia's premiere jungle national park. This park boasts 100 tigers, 600 elephants, and a variety of other small cats, mammals, and birds. We would have to be some of the luckiest people in the world to see either the tigers or the elephants, but we do expect to see some smaller wildlife.
