Langkawi..Land of the eagles..

Published by Coconutkun under on 5/16/2009 07:56:00 AM
Langkawi article is finally here! yeah..took so long just to collage the photos..i took so many photos..gosh! The one you see on the left was a rare phenomenon..just happen to stroll by the beach when this particular tree started to shed its flowers one by one..sat under it watching flowers drop around me..it was magical..

So, here i was at Andaman, a 5-star hotel/resort..Sorry ha, for those on a tight budget, this place is definately not for you.. but its worth it. Do you know that up until today, back in Klang, i can still close my eyes anytime and still smell and feel the sea and gentle breeze of Andaman.. The holiday there was that good..and frankly, there is nothing to do here other than just strolling the beach, swimming and err..strolling the beach the whole day..If only life was like this peaceful.. As for locations, if ive got my bearings right, this resort is located like the most south-west side of Langkawi far far away from the city..in fact, this is the furthest end any taxi can take you on this Island..now thats how secluded this place is..

At Andaman, youll be greeted by a large hallway, followed by a hall in which the lobby/reception counter is located..The design of the building blends a mixture of concrete and wooden structures. Adding the Timang Burung (music being played at that time) into the equation, this gives a real traditional feel to the resort.. I bet you cant wait to see the room, its 900 ringgit a night..cry~...So first things first, the view from the room is the forest..cant get the beach view which costs more..and this come with monkeys..they are notorious!-stealing things from the room;so we were advised to keep the doors closed..Still recalled chatting with a fren on the phone that night at the balcony and a loud hooting noise came from the forest..it was dark and i couldnt identify for sure where it came from..the frightening thing was, the sound got louder and louder;as though the "thing" was coming closer and closer..really scary experience..the fear of the unknown!

The thing about this resort is that its full of Japanese and gwailos..Ppl just come here for one reason, its a holiday for their mind..to clear the mind, destress, to get new ideas, inspiration, those sort of things...For me, as usual, that was only part of it..I was also there for their food! and they dont come cheap .sigh.. cry~.. So, here's what i had for lunch & dinner(day 1) and breakfast the following morning. Lunch was at a shopping mall before i went to Andaman (cosy lil cafe which ill give thumbs up anytime)..Dinner and breakfast was @ Andaman-Eat till cry~ ...the lobster itself costed RM 350..but decided to give it a go ahead..Please share..and Thank god breakfast the next day was complementary with the room..

Okie la, actually wanted to cerita panjang2 wan..but my new work takes alot of my time lately..Yeah! Pink has a new job now.. The next article is about my hike at Mt. Irau. Cameron.i cant wait to write that article too..Before i chiao, heres a picture of a bird i took at Andaman..Have fun finding it!
