What a lovely place.\u00a0 Langkawi Island was not on my itinerary until SK at the Tree-in-Lodge in Singapore persuaded me that I could not leave Malaysia without visiting the island.\u00a0 I am so glad he did.\u00a0 It has beautiful mountains, jungle and lovely beaches – no wonder it is the pearl of Malaysia’s tourism.\u00a0 Me and my bike came by ferry from George Town.\u00a0 It’s a fair distance as the super-fast ferry took 3 hours at, I guess, more than 30nm per hour.\u00a0 I stayed in a good backpacker lodge called The Honey Badger Hut.\u00a0 It about 25 km out of the main town but a perfect location as it is only a short walk from the best beach on the island and close to shops and restaurants.<\/p>\n

I rented a scooter and had a glorious day exploring the island.\u00a0 The main attractions are a walk to the Seven Wells Waterfall and a ride up to the second highest peak in a cool cable car system.\u00a0 At the top they have a suspended pedestrian bridge angled across a valley where the views are just stunning.<\/p>\n
