Been Overseas?
Monday, December 29, 2008 @1:03 PM

Well, I can say that I am back from Langkawi, well, back as in 2 days ago, haha. Well, final thoughts. Good. Well, as usual, I'll give a summary....

Day One

We departed Singapore at about 5.30-6am, forgot the time exactly. My bro and I got a first glimpse of the new JB checkpoint building. Well, it's architecture is impressive, but is not really efficient. We took a long 3 minutes waiting to clear the station, then to the next part which is checking of the bags comparing back to the old checckpoint which finshes the job quickly. Carrying on, we went for some breakfast. I ate 10 RM worth of food. Lol. It was okay, soup with abalone strips and those clam abalones. Quite worth it in my opinion.

After breakfast, we then began our road trip to Langkawi, yes we are DRIVING up. Well, took a long 6 hours to Ipoh. Where we checked into a hotel, and began some shopping. The road was comfortable, till I slept quite a way through, although reaching Ipoh was a great sight, you see some huge rocks that you may have never seen in your life. Lol, my bro was smart, he brought a pillow along and slept almost the whole journey, typically.

So checked into the hotel, ate some nice Crab Tung Hoon, it was delicious I can say, we were typically on a eating spree. And in the night, went to eat again, Ipoh's Chicken rice, only without the rice, we had kuay teow instead. Meatballs were good. Went to a "Pasar Malam" there, nothing for me to buy. So we headed back to the hotel.

Day Two

Left the hotel after having a buffet breakfast, then proceeded to this place called Kuala Kedah to take a ferry, another 2.5 hours drive. Bro started sleeping again, as he did, he said he shasn't slept for 72 hours...excluding the previous day.

So we reached this Kuala Kedah place, and had lunch there, my mom went into a toilet and saw a rat, then we informed the staff, who went in to check it out, the reaction was awesome, they started shrieking, amazingly I did not get a stomachache! Lol. Then we also found a new name for plain water, "Sky Juice". Lol. After the meal, we headed to the ferry terminal, in which we can't travel by car-on-a-ferry, so we left our car at the terminal and boarded a 2.30pm ferry on the way to Langkawi, listened to my iPod while other commuters had to listen to some TV, with no pictures but with sounds. Haha. Epic.

When we reached, we rented a pathetic car as we can say, but it was alright, the petrol was not full and we had to pump it. Checked into a great resort, with a jacuzzi in it, well the room was great, although we only had two twin beds. So I slept on a couch for the day, but speaking earlier...

For dinner, we had like a big feast, we headed to a restaurant and ate like LOTS of seafood, stingrays, squid, "La-las", and kangkong. It was like close to about 2-3 kg of food then. We then headed to ANOTHER restaurant, and ate some fish, prawn and squid again. I was stuffed. I then headed to the lobby to get my internet. Used for a while, then went to bed. After watching Star World.

Day Three

Left my room at about 8am, ate breakfast, which was again buffet, but a grander one, they had STEAKS for breakfast! So why care? I just took my fill, not thinking about lunch, and then went back to the hotel room. We then went out to see animals typically. First was a trip to their Underwater World, a little disappointed in not seeing any but 1 shark. But we saw lots of Stingrays. Lol.

Second was a trip to the Crocodile Farm, it was alright, although we did miss the show :(. We then saw this crocodile which had no teeth, but it did look tamed, and not intimidating. We then went to eat some Coconut, the water was amazing I can say, chilled to perfection. Lunch came after, thank god I ate much for breakfast. Oyster Omelette, Pomfret and whats other, Fried rice and kailan. it was alright though, and I ate Coconut again lol.

I followed my bro to explore the resort, we headed to the swimming pool, and then to a pointless trip to the beach, where we walked in circles, we did manage to find some crabs, small ones, they are like camouflaged with sand color. Headed back to the hotel, took a soak in the jacuzzi, then headed for dinner. Dinner was Seafood again, was pretty full after that and we headed back to the resort where I had to go to get internet again. :D. Came back watched TV and slept in the twin bed this time ^^.

Day Four-Five

Breakfast as usual with Steaks again. Robbed many and then headed back to the room, packed up, went on a bit of driving with my mom, then went back to the hotel lobby for surfing, while my mom and bro checked out. We then headed back to the ferry terminal of Langkawi, and booked a ferry and went for lunch, Kenny Rogers. We then headed to the ferry....

We went into the ferry, and was amazed to see someone occupying our seat. We then decided since it was so inconvinient, we headed to the back to sit, which was SO HOT. I can lose 500g just by sitting there all day! Oh well, reached the jetty and decided to drive all the way back to Singapore, with stopping at Muar. Reached Muar and prayed for Assam fish, which I had. Thank god, and drove back to Singapore. Another 2 hours, reached Singapore at 3am. Went back home, lay on my bed, and got knocked out.

Well that is about it. Shall update this post if something is there.

Ciao~
