Guess who I went with?
:D
Them!
:))
So basically, we meet each other in KLIA2 because all of us are from different states (but I was in KL a day before with Daphne to hunt for something we wanted to bring to Kohlipe)
Met Joe at KLIA2 and we were lost-.-(too big and complicated)
Fate is about sitting together side by side in the same plane! As we booked our ticket and checked in online at different time, we still managed to sit together. All of us were so happy. HAHAHA
Fasten our seatbelts together with our babies
Yes, we brought them along :P
After around 55 mins we reached Penang!
:D
Went to shop and eat and then stayed at Joshua's house.....
The next day,
woke up at 3 something as we had to reach Caltex(petrol station) to meet our driver at 5am.
SO TIRING & TORTURING!
We had some problem with the driver and the tour agent and we ended up waiting 2 hours in the car-.-
The van came at around 7am and we started our journey to Thailand:)
Luckily, we were able to make it in the end:')
Forgive me for my bad memory as I don't really remember how long does it takes to reach there. But overall our route was from kl->penang->hatyai->pakbara jetty->kohlipe
We took 2 vans as we switched to another van when we reached hatyai and then took speedboat to our destination.
From penang to pakbara took around 4 to 5 hours and for speedboat is 1 and a half hour.
(in the van)
We slept all the way coz we were too tired
getting ready for the speedboat!
(speedboat)
thank god, after 1 n 1/2 hour we were still alive.
The speedboat was seriously...disgusting?
It was fast, and it hitted the waves, thus, making the boat so unbalance and and and its more scarier than riding on a roller coaster
everyone started to rub some oilment on their temples and nose, some people even prepared plastic bags
we started to close our eyes and pray that we won't vomit
so so uncomfortable
There was a kid vomiting in front of us and he couldn't close his mouth, so he puked all the way to the back (he was in his father's arm) and kesian his dad with all his 'leftover'
EWWWWWWWWWWWWW
After that we were so dizzy@@
Changed to a small boat and bike(known as 'taxi' in kohlipe) to our resort
PS// If you are going for 3 days or less than that, try using a bag pack instead of luggage as you have to get down from the boat and walk on the sea. Luggage would be troublesome because they will dump your luggage on the speedboat first and it might get wet. After you get down from the boat you still have to wait for them to pass you your luggage; however, if you are bringing a back pack you can easily get down and go, save a lot of time:)
Put our belongings in our room and we went to the beach for some photo taking session! We have to get ready for dinner by 6.30pm so we have around 2 hours to hang around and get ready
Our room
FYI, we were staying in Varin Beach Resort, which I think is quite new
We added a mattress for Joe :P
PS// Kohlipe is 1 hour slower than M'sia's time
Jalan-jalan time
Grabbed some food as we didn't managed to have lunch
We were using monopod and it was so fun!!
Everyone was looking at us with a weird look but who cares! XD
Quite a number of stray dogs there ><
Forgive me for spamming so many photos
Feel so sorry if I don't share them because it is really beautiful there!
Pictures say it all
:D
Dinner time
Spicy but quite delicious though, probably we were too hungry
After that we went for a walk and I did pedicure:D
Not those professional ones but overall I am quite satisfied with it:)
Daphne and Joe went for foot massage after that
Day 2 coming up sooooon!
Stay tune! :*
