A Weekend Getaway!

by - Monday, September 13, 2010

It's been a while since my last holiday, and definitely been years with this bunch of friends. We have been talking about going for a trip forever, but never had the effort and time to do so - until this recent Raya holidays.

Our destination - Langkawi! A place full of cheap liquor and chocolates! =)

During our 3 days 2 nights stay, we only went to very few places - thanks to the nice beach right in front of our resort. Mutiara Burau Bay Resort has its own beachside, and we saw a lot of foreigners with bikinis which benefited the guys a lot. =) The beach although not as sandy and smooth as the one I stepped on in Redang Island, but this is good enough for a relaxing stay.

First day of trip, we went to the Underwater World. Saw a varieties of fishes, and the guys keep on commenting on how nice the fishes taste if they were to be steamed, fried or grilled... >.<> next destination when dinner was done. We took photos in the dark, and promised to return for better photos the next day. When night falls, games started and everyone starts drinking...

Due to the effects of alcohol, we all slept in late and had a late breakfast. We kept our promise and went back to Dataran Lang once more. The weather was really killing us, and we decided to get something cold - ice cream! Shopping comes next and being the typical shopaholic, I carried a pair of Nike shoes back. I REALLY ought to have some self-control.. or should i say money management... But who cares? i love those shoes :p

And again, the guys can't wait to return to the beachside for more fun moments. We had a very late dinner accompanied by dozens and dozens of mosquitoes... The experience was not too bad though because we had the restaurant to all ourselves only without any other customers. After dinner, the guys proceed with buying more beers to start their night. Last day, we all slept in late.. again. We all had breakfast in our resort this time, and packed our stuff. After checking out, we explored the beach and found many nice spots for picture-snapping time. Our last visit was the cable-car ride. The scenery up there was beautiful, and the best part was we had awesome breeze blowing to keep us cold.

Very quickly, it's time for us to bid goodbye to Langkawi...

If you ask me, was this trip fun? I would say yes.. Not because of the place, not because of the food, or anything else - but it's because of the crowd whom I went with. The best part of a trip is to be surrounded with laughter with the people I loved. =)
