Tour around Langkawi

Took a ferry from Alor Star Kuala Perlis to Langkawi.

1 hour ferry with Malay horror comedy show.

 
Toured around Langkawi island with a helpful driver


First stop - Underwater world

It's much bigger than I expected given that it is in an island. 
RM28


the pengiuns simply remind me of Happy Feet. haha



 


As I look at the sea creatures, I thought of the times where I was teaching my students on the different characteristics of marine life.

I remember how excited they were when I introduced the different fishes and sea creatures. 
and the many craft we did together. 
(^.^)

Second stop: Pentai Cenang Beach

was told that this is the most beautiful beach in Langkawi.


How I wish I could just lay on the sand and listen to the nature sounds.



 
 parasailing - I want to try this one day. =)

 



Third stop: Another beach
I can't remember the name.

more for fishing and picnic





Fourth stop: Cable car
RM15

please be prepared to wait. 
we queued for nearly 1 hour before we got on it.

There were two stops for you to view the scenary of Langkawi. 

 this is the first stop where you can walk on the bridge to view the scenary.

As we were rushed for time, we only stop at the peak.

This was all we could cover in a day due to the time spent in travelling from one place to another. 

after looking at the map, I realised that there was actually alot more places that we could have visited. 

well, I may return for a second visit. =)


Took the ferry back to Kuala Perlis with the same horror comedy show. -.-"
