atv ride and mangrove paradise resort

After seeing Kampong Ayer and the Empire Hotel first week this month when my sister visited, I never knew I could still get to experience some more of Brunei. This afternoon, the girls and I went to Tungku Beach for the ATV adventure ride. Though I had tried this once in Boracay, I still felt like I only did it this time. We both tried the big and small vehicles. It was an afternoon full of fun. The girls had fun driving through the sand, going back and forth the entire adventure area, and shouting.

I wonder though why there's not a single ziplining adventure in Brunei. Brunei must be a very good place to have a lot of ziplining businesses. 

After the fun adventure, we had dinner at Mangrove Paradise Resort in Jalan Kota Batu. The restaurant is located in the river. It was literally above the water. Now, I'm missing the barbeques in Baybay, Leyte which had a similar setting with this resort. It had a very beautiful view because of the night lights surrounding the area. I don't know how it looks during the day, though. 

I loved everything we had for the dinner, most especially this Mango Fish. It's called a mango fish since the fish has slices of raw mangoes all over it, and peanuts as well.
Well, I'm loving Brunei more, now that I'm already leaving a few weeks from now.
