An Outing to Sekinchan, Kuala Selangor

It was a public holiday so my nieces and my sister were able to take us to Sekinchan which is about 65 km away from the capital city. It was a nice cloudy day which made it a pleasant drive. Sekinchan is noted for its good seafood and small restaurants that cater to patrons from other places.

Somehow we found our way to Pantai Redang, a lovely expanse of white beach.

 Since it was a holiday, many stalls had been set up to take advantage of the crowds. They did good business, selling dried seafood produce, sea shells, food and kites.

There was a little temple with a wishing tree, festooned with red ribbons.
On these ribbons were supplications from those who had thrown them high up into the branches.  It is the belief that if your ribbon stays up there, your wishes will be granted.

We had a look around, made a few purchases and went off in search of a restaurant where we would be assured of a good meal.
