Langkawi Holiday Part 1

Let me introduce the participants in this story:

Joachim, Myself, William and Lim at Eagle Square


DAY 1 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

We arrived at Langkawi International Airport around 10.30pm at Monday night 14 feb. Get my car and started to explore Langkawi with my GPS but there is some problem when using Langkawi so we used the traditional way which is maps from the airports travel agents.

We drove to Pantai Cenang which is most happening place I guess. We park at Rasa restaurant and walk until Underwater world to have a look what is around. Most of the shops are close because it was 12am morning. As planed we will sleep in the car that night since no reception of any motel or guest house is operating in the holy morning. Since we are hungry for food after a long walk, we stop by Artisan Pizza house for supper. (Pay for delicious). We ordered one normal pizza and another expensive one, the expensive is good and the normal is .......... with the total price is better go Pizza Hut, Haha



Artisan Pizza

We planed to over night at Pantai Kok Yacht but we are so tired we park our car at Petronas near Airport and sleep with car aircond. (not recommend because is not COMFORT at ALL!!). One weird thing is people around there like to pump their vehicle tyres's air in midnight....




DAY 2 >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

We were waked by the customer of Petronas in 7.30am morning. Since we sleep in the car, the toilet at Petronas is our first guess. We wash our face and brush our teeth at there... Haha, this is my first time experience sleep in the car and brush my teeth in the public.


Petronas morning call

After that we head to our first destination which is Langkawi Cable Car. We stopped by at the Pantai Kok Yacht because of the spectacular view and breakfast (in petronas). Hehe.

At the yacht

The ticket normal price is Rm30 but with mycard only Rm15. We are the third to ride on the gondola, you can picture that we were there before the cable car start operating. hehe A lot of tourist around, not many local since is not school holiday but public holiday.

The gondola is smaller that genting's gondola and the inter-station quite far... abit scary when windy. The view on the top is mind blowing... I can't express how it feel see it and believe it.








At the peak of Langkawi

After that we direct went to Kuah town to have our lunch and check-in to our hotel. The restaurant offer some nice food. I had Salted fish fried rice which is damn delicious and the have the Kuey Teow Mee goreng is also fantastic but one thing is Rm5/plate. Quite expensive ar.

We also have our dinner at the same restaurant but night is different operator. Trust me do not order any seafood they will hit you hard one time.

After check-in hotel, we went for a nap to recharge our energy for yesterday sleeping in the car and cable car than we went to the jetty for tickets and eagle square. It is better to buy the tickets over there since it is more cheaper than online booking if you are going on low season. (note: you must buy one day earlier ticket so can they cover insurance this and that...)

The receipt for Payar Island

I also forget how many time we passed by the airport to Pantai Cenang and back to our hotel. One day sure got 3 times above.


Eagle Square

This is the place we had our dinner and each person Rm40 because of the stupid fish. First time 4 dish, 4 people RM160. Only recommend for lunch. After we finished all our foods, we have to go to the kitchen and ask where is the f*** fish....




Bill

After that, we went to a near shopping mall and purchased tomorrow swimming trunk.!!



To continue part 2.... with DAY 3

  1. It's not recommended to sleep in the car with the engine and air conditioning running because the cabin is not airtight. Thus the exhaust gasses may leak into the cabin and . . . well you know what will happen. If you have to do this then open the windows a little bit. Live and learn. Thank god you're all safe.

    What did you pay RM480 for?! Just to see the Eagle Square?

  2. Yeah, we opened a small gap in all the windows. The aircond is circulate inside the car so it is not good.

    Rm480 is to Payar Island Snorkelling.
