Leaving for the Kelong@ Pasir Gogok

The actual location of the Kelong is at Pasir Gogok near Pengerang, Johor. (see map)

After making final arrangements with the rep of the Kelong, we passed thru immigration and left at about 2pm.

Because the party numbered 17 people, we had to take 2 bumboats as Singapore regulations only permitted a maximum of 12 per boat.

There were:
Roland, Yinleng, Kevin, David and William
Seok Tuan
Swee Wan, Yee Hui and her son and 4 other friends
Robert Chin and family

The boat we took looked like the one in the picture.

The trip consisted of:

Changi Ferry Terminal --> Pengerang Immigration (1 hr +)
Pengerang Immigration --> Pasir Gogok Kelong (15 mins)

The kids enjoyed the ride immensely and were full of anticipation. We passed a kelong on the way and were glad that the small and basic one was not the one we were heading for. It was a smooth ride for all.
