Volvo Driveaway 2008 – Kijal, Trengganu

A total of 45 Volvo owners responded to SM Motors’ invitation for their driveaway trip to Trengganu. Although all participants were given prior briefing and navigational instructions which would eventually lead them to Awana Kijal Golf Beach & Spa Resort, more than 10 cars preferred to drive in a convoy that was led by me.


Soon, some of them became my friends.


On Day 3, my friends and I visited the traditional boat builder at Pulau Duyong,


and the ‘floating’ mosque.


On the way back to hotel, we were a little overwhelmed by the magnificent night view of the oil refineries at Kerteh. We could not resist stopping by the road side to take some pictures.


But for others, the highlight of the trip must be the release of little turtles into mother nature – the sea.
