I was really excited to get back out on the motorbike this morning for the last day on Langkawi, so I forced myself to get out of bed early. When I got out on the road, I didn't have to make as many stops today because I knew where I wanted to go and how to get there without getting lost.
My first stop was Seven Wells Waterfall. I asked at the hotel which waterfall was the best, because I had a limited amount of time. They said Seven Wells, because there is a total of 7 waterfalls, including one large one. Compared to other waterfalls I've seen, this one wasn't too special. Not to high, not too wide, but it was still pretty. There were tons of large rocks at the bottom, which the water had smoothed over many years. I had to concentrate as I walked over them so I didn't slip!
This is above the large waterfall, where the other 6 smaller falls are located. I felt like I was on the edge of the world here. It was really slippery in this area!
For lunch, I went to a Thai restaurant on Chenang Beach, Sawadee Thai Seafood Restaurant. I really wanted to get just a basic Pad Thai, but they didn't have any. I opted for lobster, but because it wasn't fresh, as in caught that day, the waitress recommended the King Prawn. King it was! There were only 2 of them, and they were so huge! I got the kind with a pineapple glaze and it was delicious. Look at how big they are!
Late in the afternoon, I took a three hour ferry ride to Georgetown. On the way, I enjoyed some of the chocolates I bought in Duty Free. Langkawi earned duty free status a while back, and you can find good deals on perfume, alcohol, cigarettes, and chocolate. Since chocolate is very expensive in Korea, I decided to get MnM's and Whoppers... yum!
By the time I made it to Georgetown, it was dark and I was ready to crash. I had a few problems locating where to buy a bus ticket to Kuala Lumpur, thankfully I managed to get one for 12:30 the next day.
I stayed at the Hutton Lodge which is right next to the biggest night market in Georgetown. Unfortunately, I didn't have much time and was exhausted by the time I made it there. I was just hoping that I didn't have nearly as many problems making it back to KL as I did leaving KL!
