Retro: A Trengganu Vacation Album (1999)

Our Trengganu vacation in July 1999 15 years ago was a prize won. Yay! My second time to this East Coast state of Malaysia with family - A, B and my sister CY. I do love Trengganu and it was a fun trip based at the Sutera Beach Resort. We also did get about to see the wonderful sights in Kuala Trengganu and thereabouts and meet up with B's college friend and family.
Note on the trivial: A third time for me in Trengganu was official for a meeting, so not much getting about then.
Note on the not so trivial: These are re-photos, so they are rather so-so ...

A very early dawn arrival in Kuala Trengganu ...
