• Last Full Day, Langkawi Mangroves

    After a biblical storm overnight, it was up early for a 9am pick-up for the Mangrove River Safari.
    We set off at a dash up to the north of the island in a minibus. Unfortunately, the man leading the tour was too fond of his own voice, which got drowned out by the chatter in the reception area. Several of we paying customers were fed up of his endless and ineffective intro talk. We set off eventually.
    I'd sprayed anti-bug treatment on my arms, legs etc., just to be sure.
    All things considered, it was pretty good. A tunnel under the rocks wasn't available to our boats as the water level was to high. (Didn't know it was tidal.)
    Not bad - a morning's entertainment.
    What I need to do this afternoon now is to plan a bit more carefully my onward journey from Langkawi to Kuta Baru on the east coast of Malaysia.
