Day 2
second day, i woke up with a great muscle pain on my right calf. this must be due to the the all the carrying and 7 hours of walking a day before the Langkawi trip (no joke). but it is not a big problem and we proceed with our trip anyway.
Isabel waking up feeling refreshed and getting ready for the next destination.
which is of course Langkawi Cable Car. the ticket is only RM15 for an adult (with Mykad).
and i mean very high! can't blame me for freaking out, right? hehe!
taking an photo on the viewing platform. and this is only a pit stop, mind you. there is a skybridge on this level too but it has been closed for maintenance for many years. pfft!
the last stop. the temperature was cooling, but the heat from the sun was melting us at the same time!
family photo in the cable car while on the way back.
other than the cable car, there is also an oriental village down there. but i think it is forgettable. and so we left right after the cable car ride.
since we have no plans for the day, i decided to take the longer route to Kuah town. and boy, that was a real petrol waster route. nothing much to see on that one hour journey as we mostly pass by villages and hills, not much seaside to see though.
had a great Thai food at Wan Thai. food was really great and the price is reasonable too. too bad no photos as we were famished at that time.
after lunch, it is off to some chocolate price survey at the town and back to another session of power nap and a dip in the swimming pool again...
the plan for the night is to drive back to kuah town after the nap for a dinner at Teo Seafood Restaurant as we read about the rave reviews there and then stroll at the Eagle Square to have the obligatory photo with the big eagle there.
but turns out is is not a good idea to drive from Cenang to Kuah at night. the road was dark, creepy and there was not much car. but we still drive there nevertheless. reached the restaurant and we see a large crowd there. we decided to skip this and also the eagle square and return to the hotel right away...
the 17km journey feels like eternity. moral of the story, not going to drive that stretch of road at night next time. too creepy. the hair at the back of my neck were standing at that time. huhuhu...
as for the eagle square, next time then!
dinner was spend tapau-ing food from the malay restaurant next to our hotel. not bad though.
Day 3
time sure flies fast when we were having fun. an this was the last day of our vacation. nothing much was done on that day. woke up, had breakfast at the hotel and off we go to the shops beside Underwater World to get our fix of chocolates, liquors, cigarettes and perfume before going back to the hotel to pack and leave for the airport.
stopped at one of those stalls along the beach nearby airport for a laksa and cendol. the view was nice, the same cannot be said for the food though...
at the airport waiting for check-in. Isabel was tired and i think she knows that holiday was over from her look in this photo. again, she had been a good girl throughout the flight back and slept for the whole journey.
it's been a short and tiring vacation but it's been a great one. and i know there will be more fun vacation to come. this is only the beginning!
