A day with the locals
11 mai 2022, Malaisie ⋅ 🌧 29 °CI wake quite late but sometimes sleep is needed. I go to the local restaurant and take tge banana rice with chicken masala. I've messaged Ruth but had no response so I guess she's sleeping. We were due to take a proper Malaysian lunch with Aiman but he messaged earlier to say it would need to be tonight. When I get back to my room Ruth is awake so I go back to the restaurant with her and just have a coffee. We've opted for a beach day and after lunch make the 5 minute walk down there. Its so hot today I'm in and out the sea like a yoyo but refuse to pay the 30rm for a brolly. Box Jellyfish are predominant here and im always wary when I can't see my feet so it a quick dip in and out each time. On the way back we stop at a little restaurant on the front and grab a coke and water but I honestly think they over charge me and its a crazy thing because its next to nothing but it's the principal. We head home and shower and Aiman picks us up as promised. I've not eaten Malay food since I've been here and he takes us to this traditional Malay roadside restaurant. The owner goes out in his fisherboat during the day then goes to bed while his wife cooks them. While were sat in the restaurant a guy comes in with supply department and a warship on the back of his t shirt and I say I'm ex navy but I don't think he understands. Afterwards we head to bistro 33 and watch live music I look at the menu and a beer is 7rm in here and a gin and tonic 18rm(£3.30) I have two beers and a g+t and Ruth and Aiman have 3 g+ts and the bill comes to 82rm the locals get near enough half price drinks so it's really handy. On the wall is a picture of the prime minister he was in charge for 20 years and then did another 5 years but is now the electorat of Langkawi. Very well respected here which is more than can be said for boris. We go on to woods which was the bar we were in the other night and play pool. We even get Ruth playing and she does really well. Another wonderful day in paradise.En savoir plus
