Assalam and hello to all…
A few weeks back on Thursday night, I and my husband went to Langkawi for honeymoon (don't know how many times already, because everyday is honeymoon day to us)…we went there with our very best friend, Jasrul and his wife, his brother and his future brother-in-law, Arif with 18 other couples.
NIGHT 1
We head to STAR (not quite sure the full name of the school) at 6.15p.m. We were informed that the bus will arrived at 8p.m but we waited until 9 p.m, still no sign of the bus. Then at 9.15p.m the bus arrived and we quickly pack up our things in the bus and started the journey around 9.40 p.m…Two buses were set up for this vacation…
The bus headed to Kuala Perlis, the point where we need to take ferry next… It's not quite a smooth journey. Although I slept almost all night, I was informed that the bus we're riding stops for 1 or 2 hours to wait for the second bus change to another bus because of some problem…Then we continue our journey and make a few stops at R&R (Rehat & Rawat- highway facilities) before reach Kuala Perlis…
DAY 1
A hill which has been "cut off" by deforestation…but nice ray of light there…
In the tentative, we have Island Hopping activity in the evening started from 3p.m. but guess where we are at 3p.m…? Hahahaha… we're still on the ferry…. We reached the Kuah Jetty at 3.20 p.m and take the provided bus to the hotel (Langkasuka Hotel). When we checked-in the room, we're surprise to see 3 beds with one extra mattress on the floor, meaning that 2 couples in one room…Another bad news… this is like "A Series of Unfortunate Event!" (movie)…haha….we really dissatisfied with the organizer and the hotel. So we went down and ask them to separate our room. It's impossible for us to have a true honeymoon with a condition like that…the problem still not solved until 4.30 p.m…so we decided to take a taxi/van to small jetty since my husband already booked a boat for Island Hopping activity and didn't want to cancel it… we went to a few island around Langkawi , one of them is Pulau Dayang Bunting (Pregnant Maiden Island) – the island really look like a pregnant women…
See?
A very small gap between the sea around it and the lake... Masyallah...
There were not many picture I snap here because I really want to feel the air around… very nice scenery…we were brought to Bras Basah Island, only see from a far since it almost dark , and see eagle feeding (although it is almost 7p.m and the birds had gone home, we still manage to see a couple of eagle flying around and fly down to take food given to them…). Then we were brought to Awana Hotel (just look from a far, sitting on the boat…).
After the Island Hopping activity, we rent a van (really old-looking van) to go back to the hotel…after we had a short rest and done the Solat, we went to Restoran Nelayan (Fisherman Restaurant) to have dinner. We were the last customer there and we really had a meal… we ordered seafood (prawn, crab, and 2 big fish for the night…really hungry….) and ate as much as we can…haha..
Again, blur picture because of my camera is not good if its dark…
To be continued….
Happy moments dictated,
