Aina Cuti Cuti Langkawi

I was at odds with myself on this one... Should we or should we not?

To be honest, we were not especially comfortable with the idea of travelling, well.. not travelling per se, but the idea of sitting in a confined space albeit for just an hour.

In the end, I made sure Aina was given a flu shot to boost her immunity (we consulted the family doc, and this seems the only thing one can do at this point), because if she gets a common flu now, it would be sooo NOT good :-s

So, on top of that, we decided to wear masks at the airport and on flight. Aina was not too happy, but when she was asleep, we sneaked it on her... :-D :-D :-D


As soon as we arrived, got our luggages then headed to the carpark to meet with the rep from the car rental place. Proton Wira for 48hrs, RM120... :-D We went for lunch at Hj. Ismail's @ Chenang Beach, then headed for Malibest Resort, our temporary home for the next two nights :-D

We rested for a bit, unpacked, then around 5pm we left for Tg. Rhu.




Then, since Aina had SOOO much fun at the beach, chasing after waves, we had to buy her this new top and pants to change her from her wet clothes.

From Tg. Rhu we went to Kuah to buy chocolates and Ana wanted to get souvenirs. We ended up having dinner at the little kiosk at the junction along the shops, which served great laksa and nasi lemak.


The next day, we decided to treat Aina and Ana to a visit to Underwater World. Aina was so excited, she screamed and giggled the whole time :-D :-D :-D

For lunch, we just crossed the road and had nasi campur at the little restaurant. A bit pricey, about RM5 for one prawn. Good thing I only took one! AhahahHhHAhHahhahaaa....

After lunch we drove around, went to see the new Chenang Quay (or something or rather) which offered dining by the sea. We were scouting around for a place for dinner.


In the end, we stopped at the Laksa Power van near the Airport for a bowl of laksa before heading back to the hotel to rest.


That night, since it was my birthday and our 3rd Anniversary, we had a seafood dinner at Restoran Hj. Jelani (a short walk from Malibest Resort). Quite pricey though -- a plate of Butter Prawns (6 pcs of prawns) for RM40! Dunno if it was worth it, but the food was good... :-)

On Sunday morning, Aina had her final run on the beach with her babah before her bath, then we went out for breakfast and headed back to pack before checking out.

We decided to check out a bit early and drive around, hoping to find monkeys near Perdana Quay area to feed some scraps that we had.... Yippeeeeee!!! There was a whole community of them but pity Aina was asleep so only Ana and babah had a great time with the monkeys. No pics since I was holding Aina :-P

We reached Langkawi Airport a bit early, and decided to have an early lunch. It goes against my principle to pay RM9 for a packet of Nasi Lemak, or RM6 for a cup of instant noodles!!! LOL

Aina shared my Spaghetti Bolognese then hubby exchanged his chicken meal for my pasta :-s


Aina fell asleep during the taxi ride back to Puchong, and I put her down on the couch while I unpacked the bags of dirty laundry and 'stinky' souvenirs i.e. ikan bilis, ikan kering, etc. LOL LOL

Poor baby was out until it was time to wake her up for her bath...
