Langkawi Day 1: 椰林 Restaurant, Underwater World, Oriental Village, Cement Factory, Crocodile Farm, Taman Awam Teluk Yu, Black Sand Beach, Air Hangat Village, Barn Thai Restaurant, Kuah Town, Langkawi Parade Megamall, Pantai Cenang Pasar Malam

Next day, we go to Penang Jetty to check-in at 7.45am. I will dizzy if i sit ferry so we go Jetty earlier, and finally we manage to sit at the second level of the ferry. We reach Langkawi around 12noon. When we just step out from the ferry, got a lot of car renter start asking us to rent their car. After arguing with a car renter, we rent a car for our transportation for 3 days at RM140. Off course, Hui Shin is the driver for this 3 days, because she is the only one that can drive manual car among us. Hehe... and, I'm the one who show the road and read the map. And the last SHIN, rest in the car. Haha.... After pump the petrol, we go to Pantai Cenang and start find our resort. Our resort is very near to the Underwater World. We booked the Family room because the normal room is more expensive than the Family room. The normal room juz got 2 single bed, while the Family room got 2 double bed. Me and Whye Shin share a double bed and Hui Shin get a double bed. Dono why, Hui Shin always got a lot of stuff at her bed...her bed very messy...Haha....Me and Whye Shin's bed very clean one a : p

After check-in, we start find our lunch.....We cant find "Fat Mum" Restraurant, so we have our lunch at "Ye Lin" Chinese Restaurant which intro by Forum's net friend too. "Ye Lin" looks like a expensive restaurant, but actually the price is ok la...not expensive. and most important thing is the food is delicious!! We order "Fu Yong" Egg, "Tie Ban" Tou Fu, and "Wa Tan Ho". We finish all the food...Yum!Yum!

After lunch, the sky start raining, so we cant go to the cable car as our plan. We decide to go to Underwater World which is the only indoor activity. We go to the Underwater World but we didn't enter, because the information people say a lot of fish kill by poison which happen last few months. As we plan to go Singapore's Underwater World, so we cancel this Langkawi Underwater World. We go shopping at the duty free shop beside the Underwater World. The Zon's wine is cheaper than Kuah Town, but the chocolate is expensive.

After visit the duty free shop, the rain stop d. And we go to the Oriental Village and the cable car. When we reach Oriental Village, we only know that the cable car didn't open due to big wind. So we just walk around. We go to the rabbit farm and take some photo at there. The rabbit is very cute and it not scare people.

Then, we drive and circle the whole Langkawi Island. First, we pass by Cement Factory and then we stop at the Crocodile Farm, but we also didn't enter, because the ticket is RM10, too expensive d. Then we continue the journey and stop at Taman Awam Teluk Yu. The garden there just we 3 person and a family. We just stop awhile because it start raining again. Then we go to Black Sand Beach. The forum friends said the beach has nothing to see, but we still decide to go there, because we already at that area. When we reach the beach, we saw 3 children playing at the beach, and the sand is gray and black color. Wonder why the children still can play at there. Forum friends said the beach is almost white sand, and no more black sand, but we saw a big black beach. Donno we go to the correct beach or not... Hehe... We also visit the shop at the beach. We bought coconut and 4 packs of junk food whichi is cheaper and fresher than Kuah. I also bought 1 pack of nut for my uncle.

After Black Sand Beach, we decide not going to Tanjung Rhu, because the beach is very far and just allow the customer to visit. So we go to Air Hangat Villange. When we reach there, is already 6pm and the Air Hangat close at 6pm. Although it close at 6pm, but we still can enter to the village.... We are the only one at the air hangat after one family go back. At first i donno that we are not allow to put in our leg into the pool, i just follow what the family do. After that i just notice the signboard. We need to use a pail to take the water and put our leg into that pail. It is really comfortable because the weather is cool. We sit at there very long time and when we leave the door that we come in is locked. We tot we locked in the village. Lucky still got few workers at the gift shop and they show us another way out. Then, we go to have our dinner at Barn Thai Restaurant. Tree of us already hungry but we still need to walk 450 meter bridge. The bridge is abit scary, it need to take very very long walking distance to the restaurant and the bridge is abit old and environment very dark and in the jungle. Luckly, we cross the bridge when the sky still abit bright. We are the only customer in the restaurant when we enter it, after awhile only got a couple come in. This restaurant is a high class, romantic and expensive restaurant. We just order one Tom Yam Seafood Soup and Thai Rice. After our dinner, we still need to cross the bridge again. and this time the sky is totally dark wo....so we walk fast and faster and faster to get out from the jungle...Haha...

At night, we go to Kuah Town to do survey....what survey?? Survey the price of chocolate, wine, plate lor.... Wanna know how much we buy?? Will tell u later on..... After survey, we also stop at Langkawi Parade Megamall before we go back to our resort. We just walk the ground floor and buy nothing.... Buy nothing?? Nono...i buy someting... I buy a waffle for my dinner... Hehe... Din i hav my dinner at Barn Thai Restaurant?? Yaya... i ate at there, but is not full... Haha.... One the way back to Best Star Resort, we saw Pantai Cenang Pasar Malam... actually not pasar malam... is just got many many shop at there lor....

Langkawi Day 2: Pantai Cenang Beach, Oriental Village (Cable Car), Kuah Town (Zeno Duty Free), Cactus Restaurant, Kedawang Pasar Malam

Second dat at Langkawi Islang..... We wake up in the early morning, then we call the Cable Car hotline and confirm that the Cable Car is open. So we fast fast go to have our breakfast provided by the resort.... The breakfast is simple, but the Mee Hoon Goreng is nice.... and the view oso nice... We sit at the beach to have our breakfast.... Nice?? Then we fast fast rush to Oriental Village again to take the Cable Car to the bridge.... When we reach there, the ticket counter close because too many customer?? U heard that before?? Stop selling ticket because too many people already bought ticket?? The ticket counter open at 12.30pm, so we have to Q under a very very hot sun just to get the ticket.... After bought the ticket, we still need to Q for the cable car.... Around 1.30pm we finally reach at the top of the mountain... and we go to walk the bridge among the two mountain... Donno what is the English Name for the bridge d. Actually i feel that the bridge very unstable....you can feel the bridge is shaking and some of the plank abit loss... From the cable car, we can see the Temurun Waterfall. The Temurun Waterfall needs to climb 45mins staircase, so we didn't go. I met my industry training colleague at the bridge there....I know they will go to Langkawi at the same time oso... I meet them 1st time at Penang Jetty. We take 8.15am ferry, while they take 8.30am ferry. Then we met at the birdge the second time. and the last time we met is at the Langkawi Jetty. We take the same ferry go back to Penang.

After Cable Car, we go to Kuah Town to have our lunch. Then we start our BIG BIG shopping at Zeno Duty Free shop.... Let you all guess, three gals bought how much?? RM200? RM500? Nope...is RM1000++. I bought 1 white wine for colleague, 1 Martill and chocolate with wine for my cousin, 2 DOM and 3 Dunhill for my uncle's shop, and small amount of chocolate for my own family. Zeno Duty Free shop got a special offer, we can get Forrero Rocher(30pc) at RM17.50 when buy more than RM100. Other Langkawi shop is selling RM18.50 and the price at Penang or other state is RM37... I take 2 boxes and Whye Shin & Hui Shin take 5 boxes per person. Imagine we have to carry 12 boxes to pass the Tax area... Lucky the officer didn't check our bags. After the big result of shopping, we go back to our resort and start taking the photo... Haha... then we go to Cactus Restaurant to have our dinner. The Cactus Restaurant is at Pantai Kok, which also near to Pantai Cenang. The restaurant plants many many of big cactus, then most of the customers are non malaysian... We are the only Malaysian in the Restaurant. I tot the restaurant is very expensive, but actually is normal price, and the food is abit big plate. The owner of the restaurant is very friendly. He likes to 'Chit Chat" with his customer... After dinner, we still got a lot time, so we decide to go to Kedawang Pasar Malam. The pasar malam is small and most of the people are malay. We see some foods at there, but we are too full, so we cant buy and taste it d.... After that, we go back to our resort. We see neighbors are preparing their BBQ dinner... They start "Chit Chat" with us. They are from Johor, and just back from Thailand. They actually is from Thai, but shift to Johor many years ago. Then they also talk about the Thai Buddhist.... After "Chit Chat", we go to bath and go to bed.

The place we have our breakfast. It locates at the beach.
