15th June 2006
We leave KL on a Thurs night by bus. There’s nothing much but traveling the whole night so let’s just skip 15th June.
16th June 2006
We reach Kuala Perlis early in the morning(6am+). The sky was still so dark; seriously i had no idea that Kuala Perlis Jetty was just a stone throw away. Got ourselves some ferry ticket and boarded our ride to LANGKAWI!!
luxurious ain’t that, but nope….that wasn’t our ride. We boarded the ‘Old’ Mighty Ferry
the weather was fairly fine that morning
"Argh! Volcano!!"
It has been years..many years since i last came to Langkawi. To my surprise the walk from the jetty leads us straight to a small shopping arcade. So different from what i last remembered. My favorite Starbucks was there too!!
"strictly no parkin’ "
We rented some cars to fetch ourselves to our lodging place, called "Langkapuri". Budget hotel; quite old but clean with beautiful seaside view.
Everyone were tired so, for the first destination in our Langkawi Exploration…Slumberland
"not all went to slumberland though"
Right after we’ve been fully charged we started our
"Le tour De Langkawi". All we need was just a road map
"it’s like ‘Risk Map’ with simple roads"
First stop "Oriental Village Langkawi"
The main attraction here - the Cable Car " ..to where?" to a panoramic view of the whole Lankawi of coz.
"it was quite misty up there"
"the observatory deck"
"we were 705 meter above sea level"
"therefore, we decided to pose for our little achievements"
At the deck i saw this lonely giant bear sitting there.
So, i went over to greet him ‘hi’
Besides the cable car, the oriental village itself of coz’ was quite a nice place.
First day was just about that..but wait, there is more to come. It wasn’t a one day tour…..
coming next….Langkawi Breakaway 2006: 17th June
