Langkawi revisited (Part 1)

I used to work in Langkawi for a couple of years. It's one of my family's favourite vacation spot. So we decided to go Cuti2 Malaysia this time around. Stayed at Pantai Cenang. Visited some of the places we'd never been. Our first stop was Dataran Helang (Lang). Aiman wanted to swim in the fountain pool there. Daddy & Atok had to restrain him, otherwise he surely would get his feet in the water.
Next we went to Oriental Village. There are some animal show here, souvenir shops and the best of all The Cable Car. Since none of us have ever been in a cable car before, we were very excited to try it ....including Aiman. It was a bit scary once the gondola heads for Gunung Mat Chincang. Aiman became very quite... Everybody felt a bit 'gayat'.



But once we were on top of the mountain, the scenery was simply breathtaking. You can see the blue sea dotted with some yachts. During the ride we saw a beautiful waterfall ~ Telaga Tujuh.



The cable car has the longest suspension in the world between two stations. It was built without constructing any roads through the jungle. Some people were seen walking the walkway at the highest station. The ride was more than enough for me!

In the evening, Aiman wanted to go to the sea which is just at the back of our place. The scenery was beautiful. There are some water sports for those enthusiasts e.g. banana boat ride, parachute ride & jet ski. And as usual Aiman doesn't want to come out of the water.

Enough for Part 1. Will continue later about the chocs, kain batik & Corelle!
