Day +818 : Holiday in Langkawi (1)

I am fine today.

Langkawi Holiday Day 1 (Monday, 29 September 2008)

Yesterday, we touched down Langkawi airport at 9:00am, 10 minutes earlier than the scheduled arrival time. Immediately upon arrival, we proceeded to a car rental counter in the arrival hall to claim the car that we rented a day earlier. A day rental (24 hours) of a Perodua Kancil cost us RM60. I saw other counters were offering RM50, but I couldn’t switch as I had already paid the rental in advance.

We made a wrong turn into a kampong road after leaving the airport, and this buffalo was there to greet us
After refilling the petrol, we went straight to Kuah Town. There were so many duty free shops there that sell almost the same things; chocolates, liquor and wine, cigarettes. We didn’t smoke and drink alcohol, so the only thing that captured our attention was chocolate. But which shop to shop?

To be continued and see you next post :-)
