i recently just got back from a trip to the east coast. it was a really educational trip, went to meet loads of old relatives, visited old family mansion homes, and of course some climbing. but this post ain't about all that. this post is about my long delayed langkawi post.
our plan was to take a bus to kuala perlis, then take a ferry to langkawi. but guess what, being the teenagers we are, we did not arrange for transport to the bus station up till the last minute. so we called in a favour from an old friend.
ROBIN!and also being the teenagers that we are, we also lost our way and almost missed the bus. had we been 5 minutes later, we would have totally missed the bus. so anyway the bus trip took around 7 hours!
FREAKING LONG RITE! next time i'll fly there.
anyway, the bus was cold, and the seats were on lah.
as usual we had to take a few shots to document the whole trip.after the freaking long bus ride, we were dropped off at a bus station 5 minutes away from the jetty. funny thing was that when we got off the bus, we were all blur and stuff, this man came to the entrance asking "siapa pergi ke langkawi?" and min ern just came to him and said "ya saya pergi ke langkawi"
it turned out that this guy was some agent that people go to when they want to go for a holiday. we sat down and talked about which hotel to stay at, how much would it be to rent a car, island hopping, etc. funny thing was, we already had made arrangements with a guy called azlan. he booked the hotels for us and stuff. when i got out of the bus, all blur and sleepy, i actually thought that this guy was azlan. so we sat and chatted discussing the prices and was almost convinced to follow this agent.
then suddenly, azlan called me. and i was like "oh shit! its azlan!" and was contemplating if i should pick up the phone. eventually when i did, it turned out that azlan was at that same bus terminal. he was wondering where we were, and when he found out that we were the people sitting on the table right across the terminal, he got pissed.
so he came walking towards us shouting at the other agent saying "mana boleh macam ni?! sayasudah buat booking dengan hotel" etc. eventually we decided heck, lets forget about the fat impostor and just stick with azlan.
after discussing the prices for the trip, we headed off to the jetty and got a boat to the beautiful duty free island of langkawi!
the boat trip took us about 2 hours. and the boat was moving really slow. after awhile we decided to move to the front of the boat to get a better view and also for some fresh air.
after the 2 hours we finally arrived at the jetty in langkawi!
in my next post, i'll tell you what happened in langkawi.
while waiting, here is a teaser.
