I ♥ Langkawi cont.

After island hopping, we met the Singaporean couple again at the Jetty Point after lunch.

We went to the tour agent office and decided to go to the cable car together. So, there we went!

Cable Car of Langkawi Geopark =)

It was quite a long journey there. Took about 20-30 minutes to reach the place. It’s located at the Oriental Village. We walked around the place a while before finding the cable car station.

When we got there, there were soooo many people queuing! But, determined to go for it, we joined the queue and waited for about 1 hour.

At the 2nd station up at the hill!

It was worth the waiting. And just like what I had mentioned on my previous post, the cable car ride was very scary!

Took this picture while on our way down…

Zoomed in to take this awesome picture of the 7 wells =)

It’s more than 700m above sea level and worst of all, it has the steepest gradient of 42°. It terrified me that I was holding on to the handle and praying all the time! Didn’t know I have fear of heights.

Look at how steep the cable was!

But, once we were up there, the view was spectacular and the temperature was lower. Love the place there. It was breathtaking!

Love the view up there!

With Mummy and Lynna =)

After snapping enough pictures there, we went to queue up again to go back to the ground. The ride then, was more relaxing and less terrifying. =) Phew!

I looked more relaxed when on the way down…

Later, we went to the mini zoo beside the station. Not many animals there. Just rabbits and deer which we could actually touch and feed. So cute!

 Cute deer!      

Then, we went to the Eagle’s Bay to take pictures! It’s very near to the Jetty Point, where we were earlier. The van driver told us that the eagle statue costed RM2 millions! No wonder so huge. =)

♥ Mummy and Daddy ♥

What a day in Langkawi! It was super fun and enjoyable. I totally didn’t expect it to be so fun. Glad we met the couple in hotel. We even ended up going around the town together for the whole day! What a blessing. =)

Verdict? Langkawi is a must go! Either with family (recommended) or friends, just go and you wouldn’t regret this.

I ♥ Langkawi

After meeting the Merlion, we continued our vacation to Langkawi!

Bye bye, Singapore!

Trust me, it’s not a good idea to do that. Firstly, the flights there really drained our energy. By the time we arrived, we were so exhausted!

Secondly, it’s a huge change. Travelling from such a developed country to a very small town really made a big difference. Couldn’t adapt to it for the first few hours but, soon, we realised Langkawi could offer us something that Singapore couldn’t.

"But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as EAGLES they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint" Isaiah 40:31

The beautiful islands and beaches!

The speed boat we used to travel!

We were in Langkawi for just 2 days & 2 nights coz’ we only arrived there at night. So, there weren’t enough time to do a lot of things!

We were thinking of renting a car. So, on the next day, Daddy called to ask about it. While waiting at the lobby, we met a couple there. They were very nice to us that they recommended the island hopping tour they were joining.Since the deal was quite good, we decided to ditch the car rental idea and went island hopping!

At the jetty =)

It was quite an impulsive decision but, we totally loved it! The sea was great and I loved the whole tour.

We went to 2 islands and a fish farm. First island was just a place to swim but, all of us didn’t want to waste our time there since nobody planned to get wet, so we skipped it.

Then, we went to watch eagles feeding. The eagles were small but, it was very interesting to watch. They fed them chicken skins because chicken skins could float on the water.

Pic blurr because of shaky boat and poor skills (duh!)…

Later, we went to the fish farm. It’s like a small hut in the middle of the sea. They got a very big, yellow shark there. Others were big fishes but, I think they were baby sharks.

Family pic!

A while after, we proceeded to the famous island, Dayang Bunting Island. There, located the biggest lake in Langkawi, the Lake of the Pregnant Lady. It’s a fresh water lake so, it was quite amazing to have a fresh water lake on an island in the sea.

Fatty lady in the pic! Haha=)     

We went for a boat paddle. We got the automated boat coz’ we were too tired to paddle. Lol!

Lynna and me on paddle boat=)

While we were busy paddling, Mummy, who were sitting at the hut, saw a Singaporean actor! So lucky. And she claimed that she got to talk to him. Too bad she didn’t get to take a picture with him. No camera with her that time! =(

After about 1 hour there, we left. It was a quite trip back to the jetty because everyone was tired but, we enjoyed it very much! Amazing experience to see God’s awesome creations.

No doubt, I ♥ Langkawi!

 

P/s: Stay tune for more on my last Langkawi post!

Ready to BLAST OFF!!!!

Half an hour more for our Malaysia's first cosmonaut to blast off into space!


I am really nervous about this because I don't like rockets, space shuttles or anythings to do with outer space! But, I am really excited for our Malaysian cosmonaut. It is going to be a great experience for him!
I really pray for journey mercy for him and the others who are blasting off soon! May God bless them!
