However, lady luck wasn’t on our side as a downpour began shortly after we were there.
That’s the lot of us in the pool
(Nads took the picture)When everyone decided to go back to the hotel room to catch a few ZzZzZ’s,
I visited the spa after our swim to get myself a good massage – something I’ve been longing for ever since those dreaded final exams!
It was a really lovely spa; very spacious area with aromatic scents all around & instrumental music playing in the background as well.
Check it out:
Need to loosen up those muscles yo!
their Reflexology was the bomb, I assure you
I’m so wanting more!
After a great catnap, it was already waaaayy past dinner time. All of us were hungry and itching for some tomyam & seafood =) Oh no.
TomYam = spicy shyt!
But.. I’m lovin it!
It was a picture-perfect atmosphere
So authentic, with those ‘ataps’ and all.
Time for the after-dinner partayyy! =D
*w00tw00t*
My, my Gloria… you look so stylish when you’re high
=P
okay, enough pictures from that night.
>_<
We were all supposed to wake up early the next morning for the buffet breakfast, but most of us were too tired and lazy to wake up. I had to drag myself out of bed even. =(
But oh well, Gramps once told me, never miss the morning sun if I can!
So I got up, headed for a stroll around the resort and to catch the rays of the sunshine
Hurrah! I ain’t too late!
^_^
Sitting by the pool armed with my two little white beauties – my cybershot & my iPod, I kept my hands busy the whole morning.
Music calms the soul
Also, I photographed little vibrant children swimming in the pool
… sitting there long enough, this was what I observed.
Isn’t it beautiful how two toddlers completely unknown
to each other can form a bond so quickly?
Socialization at its divine innocence
simply beautiful.
Look, even their parents stopped to watch the melodrama
Bejeezus!
Breakfast buffet time is almost up!
Was too caught up in those morning photography… thank heavens I didn’t miss it!
The pastry they had that morning was really good
Lunch @ Sun Cafe was quite an experience too, it was very well furnished and decorated. They had desaturated pictures of a diversity of faces hung on their walls. Open air and naturally lit, I find that place very comfy to dine in.
Oh, and their fresh fruit juices rock!
Pineapple & Papaya
And we’re on the road again!
Destination : Island Hopping!
and… that’s our ride this afternoon
^_^
Better hold on tight!
It’s a very bumpy and windy ride!
But thanks to the Sony Cybershot, known for its super steady shots
*cheers*
We were scheduled to hop around 3 islands, first being the famous ‘Tasik Dayang Bunting’ or known as the
Lake of the Pregnant Maiden
If you look closely enough, you will see a shape of a pregnant maiden lying on her back
Amazing how nature works wonders, no?
We had a steady hike up all the way to the pregnant maiden’s hill to get to the lake
That’s the lake within that island
Legend has it that ladies who wish to be more fertile and to bear children, they would go to this lake and swim in it.
Daniel.. do YOU really wanna be a hawt mama?
umm.. ya’ll ready to be mama’s yet gurls?
XD
nyahahaha.
But hey, it’s probably an old wives’ tale, for ancient folklore can only be that believable.
We also passed by Pulau Jong and was supposed to catch a glimpse of Pulau Singa Kechil but somehow didn’t. I guess the boat went too fast
AND GLORIA SPOTTED A DOLPHIN!!
(yeah right lah, woman)
=P
We crusaded the oceans again in our bumpy boat ride but managed to capture a good shot of us!Really, really windy. Probably more than 250 knots. =)
The next island we hopped onto was the Eagle Feeding territory
That’s where all the eagles are hunting for their food
We t
hrew chicken meat & skin for them to swoop down to catch it
I really wonder what’s its like seeing things from an eagles eye view.
Marvelous, indeed.
Soon enough, we were back on the bumpy boat ride blading through the rough seas!
Believe it or not, your fingers will hurt because the speeding boat riding against the waves made the force of the water too strong
The final island we arrived on was a picturesque beach with a coral-filled sea. That’s where people go snorkelling too =)
Why, hello waves.
Nads and & by the sunny beach
Ya know what sucks?
Daniel gave me an extra coral that he found but I totally forgot to take it back home.
Dang. -_-
Yes, children. Bury dad alive
=P
Later into the evening, we went to a nearby ‘pasar malam’ known as the night market.
They sold fried burgers! How cool is that?
Nads was lucky enough to get one, cos boy, they sure finish really really fast!And yes, our night party continues. Whooooopsie, Gloria had one too many I suppose, and was on the highroad again. teehee.
=D
Sleepin’
high in style, babe!
Next morning signifies our last day in Langkawi. Bought all the stuff we could and did some extra last minute shopping.
Hmm.. I wonder how we can dodge the custom officers well enough to bring those booze & fags back to Penang!Somehow, we did.
*grins*
I’m just so glad they didn’t take my precious bottle of Bacardi away.
Here all the stuff are, safely and soundly home with me
My stuff & the gifts I bought back for family and the boyfriend
I betcha we enjoyed the trip inside out
HAD A FAB TIME WITH YALL PEEPS!!!
