since the memories are still FRESH in my mind, i decided to blog about this trip first instead of the previous trip, but don't worry. i will still blog about them *wink*
booked this trip's flight ticket months and months ago during AirAsia sale when i was still in Form 6.
actually, my travel mates were Hee and Raph, but ended up to be Cindy and Bryan LOL
checked in for them, but something came up and both of them couldn't join at last.
so Cindy and Bryan booked last minute ticket and joined me!
bless enough to have them for joining me *kisses*
reached LCCT at 0050 on 17/5/2013. flew to Penang at 0715 in the early morning.
such exhausting wasn't it? by the time we landed on Penang International Airport, we're already half-dead.
the flying duration was only 35 minutes, damn fast LOL. can't even take a good rest.
you know things get f'cking annoying when babies cry non-stop in-flight. that's something i really can't bear with. OH DEAR!
*stop my nonsense*
after landing, we went to a jetty by taxi to go over Butterworth with a FOC ferry.
we got no idea where's the jetty too =.=
FOC ferry |
the camera picks people to focus on and it actually focused on the owner and ignored me =.= that's why my face was blurred! |
actually we planned to go Kuala Perlis instead of Kuala Kedah, but the taxi uncle kept on telling us to go from Kuala Kedah *damn we're being cheated*
by the time we reached the bus terminal, we bought the bus ticket to Kuala Kedah which cost RM9 per pax and it took us 2 hours.
the booth person-in-charge was being really dishonest that he told us upon reaching the Kuala Kedah's bus terminal, take another bus for just few minutes to reach the jetty. ended up we took cab from the bus terminal to the jetty because you got to change few buses and it actually takes lots of time! *being cheated again*
from what the taxi driver told us, he suggested us to go to Kuala Perlis instead of Kuala Kedah 'cause Perlis has more ferries. *lesson learnt*
Kuala Kedah's jetty. |
the ferry ticket costs RM23 per pax. it took about 1.45 hours to reach Langkawi.
we rented this car for only RM90 for 48hours! damn so cheap isn't it? auto some more.
contact number : 0195434553 Mr. Hujan. (cute name LOL)
trust me, you MUST rent a car/motorcycle to travel around this wonderful island. it'd be the cheapest way of travelling instead of cab!
throughout the trip, Cindy's monkey-- Bryan, was the driver! THANKIU!! =D
Rainbow Lodge |
our room! |
we didn't book any room before reaching, since it's an easy-going trip, we decided to book until we're there.
Rainbow Lodge at Pantai Cenang area. RM70 per night. they actually moved another single bed in for 3 of us!
maybe the photo doesn't look good but it's really comfortable anyway. very spacious too.
after setting down, we went to bought shampoo, soap and toothpaste. of course, some food too. *starved*
went food hunting after taking our shower. so comfortable after long road/sea-trip.
we actually traveled on few kinds of public transport that day, from aircraft, cab, ferry, bus to car.
damn grueling =.=
actually we wanted to give a try on Wonderful Seafood Restaurant (recommended by trip advisor), after searching for so long, we found it and then they didn't open and we're like WTF!!
you know that feeling when you drove all the way from Cenang Beach to Kuah, and you found out it didn't open. DAMN lah.
20km from Pantai Cenang to Kuah!
went to the next door instead, just normal but we're okay with the dishes.
there's 1 very ridiculous waitress kept on telling us how delicious is their butter prawn compared to Wonderful's. and she actually wanted us to go to Wonderful the next day to try out their butter prawn.
the hell. what's she thinking? =.=
so our dinner only cost us RM49 with plain rice, vegetable, bean curd, prawn and squid. CHEAP!!
FYI, this shop is located at Kuah area, nearby Bella Vista Hotel. just ask people if you couldn't find the route in your gps app.
chocolate hunting! |
Hoegaarden for only RM3.90 |
bought chocolate at Teow Soon Huat Departmental Store. it's a duty-free shop.
hence, expect that the prices of chocs and alcohols are dirt cheap!
did some researches before coming here, and i get to know this shop has the lowest price in the entire Langkawi.
went back early and slept after this. didn't sleep for 48 hours so expect me to be extremely exhausted!
*sorry if this post bored you out, it's more to informative blog post as i could hardly find information before going there after 'googling' for quite a time. so i would like to do it! =) and that's our way of getting from Penang to Langkawi. Must not follow our route! it takes more time and tends to pay more.
till then, i will blog again tomorrow!
