Day 4 Singapore to Malaysia

An early rise and we were off to the Queen Street bus terminal to catch a bus to Johor Baru in Malaysia an hour trip that cost $2 SG each. We had to quickly jump off the bus before leaving Singapore to pass through Singapore imigration. We lined up with scary looking men everywhere with guns and before you know it Mike is stopped...He pulls out his passport but the scary little man has only one very important question for him "how tall are you?" after Mike revealed the answer to this all important question the little man replied "woooh you big" and let him pass through. Back onto the bus to Larkin Station where we boarded a bus to Mersing a 2.5 hour journey to the east coast of Malaysia. Mersing is a little fishing town where the ferry departs for Tiomon Island. We drove through acres of palm tree plantations, old run down buildings, and muddy rivers (relatively different to the modern skyline of Singapore) and arrived at Mersing. The heat was like nothing I had ever experienced and with our packs on our backs we hiked off to the jetty for our ferry... another 3 hours later we arrived at beautiful Tiomon Island. WOW...I am trying to figure out how to upload photos from the ipad to my bog (which is proving a little tricky) if anybody knows how, or what app I need help would be appreciated. I cant really explain this place in words.
