One Fathom Bank (Part Two)

Landing onto the jetty itself is a challenge since the sea is abit more rough than a calm sea but everyone managed to get onto the jetty safe and sound.

The lighthouse itself is really a magnificient structure. Coloured in the usual white and red colour, it actually has a lower part of that consist of a foyer, dining room, kitchen, prayer room and toilet on the ground floor and some guess room and a control room on first floor.

There is also a diesel room on the ground floor and I guess this is where all the electricity are generated to power the whole lighthouse. Imagine that the whole structure is fully air-conditioned and running 24 hours, 7 days a week throughout the while year.

After settling down, we moved on to get our stomach filled againg with ighost special nasi lemak... following with a handsome serving of kuih labu prepared by gneleey and the angels.

How the kitchen looks like... notice the uneven design to follow the lighthouse's design.

Kuih labu in the making...

The girls doing their parts as Team C, the one that prepare the foods...

The girls frying the kuih labu...

Looking at the weary angels (having them stranded in the kitchen without the chance of at least go around seeing the place like the rest), aircraft and I decided that we should help them out. Taking ove the cooking task, I start frying kuih labu.

The girls can cook, so can me! :P

I was having fun frying the kuih labu... Yum yum...

Next up, aircraft take over with the nuggets.

aircraft in action... selamber saja...

As for the rest of the gang, KurauKing set up a few fishing rods and without wasting any time, pstan, kobee and kimmy tried their luck with the sea.

Find this photo special. Dunno why...

Never give up even under the hot sun... this kaki pancing tried to get away from the sun

Next came the free time when the choice is either going for another boat ride for speed fishing or stay in the lighthouse to catch the sunset and any other pictures...

While waiting for the sun to set, we move around the whole place looking for nice angle for shooting. Here are some of the pictures taken then.

Sunset at OFB is really magnificient. Managed a few picture for myself.

Something different.
