Step 1 : Langkawi Island

The first trip after our marriage, not the real honeymoon as we went together with the schoolmates of mine.

Date : 1 May 2008 - 3 May 2008

Location : Langkawi Island

Itinerary:

DAY1 : Departure from Sungai Siput (N) to Kuala Kedah, Check-in at Langgura Baron Resort, Sand walk in Cenang Beach and makan-makan at Kuah Town

Woke-up early in the morning and our journey start after we took our breakfast at the wet market. Journey took ~3 hours and we reach the Kuala Kedah Jetty. Wow...so many people already queued for the tickets. Normal lar...since that day was Labour Day. Finally we get out tickets for 12.30pm ride.

Once we reach Langkawi jetty, we directly rent a van and headed to Laguna Baron Resort in Pantai Cenang. We passed by the Langkawi Underwater World before we reached that resort in 1 minute time.

Rest a while and then we dressed up for sand walk in Pantai Cenang. Night time came and we just went to Kuah Town for our dinner.

DAY2 : Island Hoping to Pulau Singa Besar, Pulau Beras Basah and Pulau Dayang Bunting, Visit Field of Burn Rice at Kampong Raja, Up Hill On Langkawi Cable Car, Rest In Royal Langkawi Yacht Club and back to Kuah Town For Dinner and Shopping.

We woke up with a lot of activities waiting us. After the breakfast, our first activity was out shore to Pulau Singa Besar, Pulau Beras Basah and Pulau Dayang Bunting from Awana Porto Malai jetty.

The island hoping 's activities include watching the eagle feeding in Pulau Singa Besar.

Reached Dayang Bunting Island, we need to up hill and down to meet the lake of Pregnant Maiden, the largest lake in Langkawi. You can swim and foot massage by “cat fish” and a sip of the waters endows fertility to any childless woman. Hehehe...

After lunch we headed to the Field of Burn Rice. Entrance to the burn field, there are shops / stalls selling food, clothes, hair accessories, toys etc... Weather really hot at that time and we just managed to stay over there for ~30minutes.

And the most fascinating moment for me and my HaB in Langkawi was when we reached the paek of Mount Mat Cincang. How to go there? Easy lar...just by cable car. Just little sweat due to hot weather.

DAY3 : Shop around Langkawi Underwater World

Another morning in Langkawi and we still got another half day to go. We shopped around the stalls along Pantai Cenang as well as walked to Underwater World. We didn't plan to enter the giant aquarium due to the fish poisoning incident in September 2007 in which we expect less fishes to be shown over there. RIP Fishes.


Reached 12pm, we packed up and leave the island.
