a week of solitude… NOT!

well it’s nearly the end of the week and all the goals i had in my mind to do this week has been silently sitting, waiting for some form of motion from me. been brain empty, solely on vacation mood… lackova brain syndrome really. anyways, i went to langkawi sun night. took 12hr long train ride, a taxi ride, an hr long ferry ride and a bumpy van (which had so many problems, i tell u soon!), to finally reach our destination.

ok first was the van bit… this rodents were all waiting for us. that’s how they feed. they have to con and cheat on poor, innocent, unsuspecting, (did i mention poor?) local tourists such as my family and i. they got a van, and we went off… two inches. the engine died on us and refused to start. as in we were in the middle of an intersection and the van just decided to nap!

so we waited more while he got some gas for the van.. it still din work! it was blazing hot and we were nearly well done, not to mention the two elderly couple and vanora that were with us… finally he got us another van, but that didn’t have gas either. wow i was burning from the inside too. gonna pull the guts outta him soon if i didn’t get a freaking van that works… finally he got a measly RM5 in the van and told us the station is nearby, don’t worry. just go straight and take a left at the lights. then we could fill up.

so the journey begin. we went straight like he said. straight. straight. still straight. freaking straight for ten minutes! i was so sure we were gonna hafta haul the freaking van back to the freaking company fellas cos it ran outta gas again. finally we saw the elusive traffic lights. wow… a huge burden fell off our shoulders upon reaching the station. you know it’s still a service to fill petrol here? not like PJ and KL where we gotta do everything ourselves. anyway those service people were so eager to "render help" in arranging activities for us. everyone’s a tour guide here.

so anyway we went places, took lotsa pics but wow the scenery was fantastic… i was so happy really. was a weekend of fun, but tirelessly we ru about and do things, we don’t realise our exhaustion until we have our shower and drift off to sleep…

was a beautiful trip. am glad. thought block now… (signs of mania!)

ciao peeps…
