2010-11-10: Langkawi - Another day in paradise

We arrived to Langkawi late Sunday afternoon and a kind boat seller picked us up at the airport. After viewing his 53 foot Bruce Roberts, he drove us to our hotel. The boat was not for us, but it´s always nice to see an older boat nice, tidy and well maintained.
We have spent 3 full days hunting our dream boat. Looking at boats here is definitely not pure pleasure. We have 30+C, and inside the boats it´s sometimes considerably warmer. In total we have looked at 8 boats during these days, which is all the boats that could be of interest for us. Disappointingly none of them suits our needs, and we have decided to not buy any of them.

We stay at a small resort in Cenang. Our cabin (the left one on the picture) is only 5 meters from the water at high tide. Everything is rather basic, but there is air condition, warm and cold water, refrigerator and a wonderful view. We fall asleep and wake up to the sound of the waves. We love the relaxed atmosphere and the amazing seafood here. Yesterday we had lobster and giant tiger shrimps at our favourite restaurant Orchid Ria.

Langkawi is really a true paradise.




The beach in Cenang is clean and the water is clear. There are a lot of activities going on all the time, but it does not disturb us. We have a week left to spend here, so we will work on our sun tan.

We will not look at more boats, if not anything special happens. The days on the beach we will spend figuring out plan B, as we do not believe we will find our boat here.
