Langkawi

---

Langkawi is known for its scenery, beaches and marine life, it is also a popular honeymoon destination (not as good as Fiji though :-) ) Best of all, for us, the island is duty free which means vodka for me.... yeyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :-)

We hired a car for a couple of days and drove around the island checking out the beaches and the lovely waterfalls and trying to avoid the monkeys on the road !

So far on our travels we have not fallen sick but for some reason our tummies are not agreeing with Langkawi which is strange as it seems really clean.

Malaysia is noticeably different to Thailand in that there seems to be more money here, for example, the roads are in better condition, more people drive cars, english seems to be the common language here as most people can speak english and the road signs/menus, etc are in english :-) Which is good as we don't know any malaysian yet! It has been strange getting used to the ringet after adjusting to Thai Baht, we have noticed that things are more expensive here but you can still find the bargains if you look hard enough :-)

Langkawi has been great and it has been nice having a car for a couple of days.

Next stop Penang (George Town)

PS Jade, Early birthday wishes to you in case we don't find an internet cafe on our travels as we are off to Cameron Highlands soon
