      Ladies that lunch

      18 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

      Nilo and me wake at 3am and watch the Liverpool game. I'll be glad when the season finishes so I haven't got to set my alarm. It's a tense game and I'm glad her neighbours are so far away as my language leaves a lot to be desired. I get back into bed just after 5am and manage to grab a few hours kip before getting back up. Nilo is originally from Ipoh and makes us white coffee from there before catching the ferry back to Langkawi. We pick the car up and and drive all the way to the waterfall cafe for coffee only to find its closed. Its really funny here because businesses just choose randomly when they will shut. We're desperate for a coffee so drive down to the marina. It's really sad when we get there as every business is closed apart from the one coffee shop. Nilo has arranged to meet two other ladies Yvonne and Halina at Rockafellas bar and we enjoy a few no alcohol drinks but I'm impressed for the set up here and with multiple screens I pencil it in for watching the game on Super Sunday. We stay a few hours and brain storm about Yvonne's hotel. Its a top end hotel and we discuss about who her target audience should be. I advise that noone from the uk will come as the flights to Malaysia are £1200 where as the flights to Thailand are £600 which Is crazy really as they are so close but you could pay for your flight and accommodation for the same price as a flight to here. We bid our goodbyes and its been so nice spending time with intelligent and kind local women. I check back in to my little home from home and the boys invite me out to our local haunts. I enjoy a couple of beers tonight as I havent had a drink for a few days and Andrew kindly drops me off.Okumaya devam et

      Rock lobster

      21 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

      I wake this morning and feel rough again but after my early morning coffee at Raos I do feel a little better. Its quite funny because I don't even have to order anymore they just know what I like. I speak with the owner and he gives me little samples of some of the food dishes, a pumpkin dish and a curry, although im not into curry for breakfast I enjoy it. Uncle Johnny appears and as we're sitting there a guy comes in who obviously has some issues. They explain that he's homeless and although you don't have to be homeless here they feed him and give him a drink. I stroll back to my chalet and chat with my two new neighbours and we all make our way out for something to eat. After lunch we walk to the shopping mall just to abuse the air conditioning and in here are massage chairs. We all take a seat and for 2 rm 40p enjoy 6 minutes of pummelling and manipulation from our legs to our backsides. The boys grab a bear but I've opted for an alcohol free day today as I want to save myself for tomorrow. We sit on the beach for half an hour but its so hot today we make our way back towards base. We stop off in Cinnamon and I enjoy a cold coke but as I go outside for a cigarette capture some activity out of the corner of my eye. A closer inspection shows a fisherman dropping off his catch of lobster of the day delivered in a box of sawdust I watch in awe as he fishes these snappy little fellas out of the box to sell to the restaurant. He puts his hand in and it's like a magic trick where these bright red lobsters keep coming out of this small box. I make my Way back and a little later in the evening Peter and Joe invite me to dinner. Instead of taking a left we take a right and end up in a Syrian restaurant. I enjoy a lamb kebab followed by Turkish tea and head home for another alcohol free night.Okumaya devam et

      Super Sunday

      22 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 30 °C

      So today is the big day. I don't know what I'm going to write about once the football season is over but at least I'll be able to sleep through the night. I feel very anxious so have booked a boat trip to while away a few hours this afternoon as the game doesn't start till 11pm. I head down the beach first for a few hours as I've woken up nice and early after a good night's sleep . Just as I set up my towel the biggest black clouds come overhead bit I decide to stick it out and with how windy it is today they are gone as soon as they arrived. When I take a dip in the sea its really choppy and I wonder whether the boat will go out as there aren't any jetskis out today which is unusual for the weekend. After a bite of lunch I head back for a shower and to grab my gopro then sit and wait for the bus to pick me up. At 215 Eddie comes around the corner and when I say the bus hasn't arrived he admits he's forgotten to book it. I walk the seafront for an hour its so much busier here at weekends and as i pass pizza hut decide to indulge in a bit of western food for a change. Because its very Muslim orientated here you cant get your typical pizzas but i order the chicken and pineapple and its delicious. When i leave the restaurant i have a little chuckle because they have a police parking area outside and the hatchback is open and 2 police officers are sat inside at a table and chairs eating their dinner. In the evening the original plan was to go to Rockafellas but we start the evening in Flo's. Its a bar on the top of one of the seafront hotels and it's really nice. Air conditioning and a big screen and reasonable prices. Pretty much the whole group from Rainbow joins us and we watch as both games unfold . Its quite crazy as we see the liverpool supporters getting the news of Villa scoring before we do. The game goes to the wire and sadly we don't get the results we want but we've given it our everything and that's all that counts. YNWA JFT97Okumaya devam et

      Boat trip

      23 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

      I wake this morning a little downhearted but rebook my boat trip so at least I have something to look forward to. I wander out for breakfast and come across the homeless guy who I have seen so much of over these past few weeks in various establishments, but wherever he goes they always feed him and give him a drink. This to me speaks volumes about the Malay people as in other places I've been he'd be chased away as a nuisance. I prepare myself ready for the boat and get picked up promptly at 2pm we are taken to the local pier where quite a few people are waiting but I'm relieved when they put us on separate boats. As we sail between the islands the Captain points out the Pregnant maiden island to the left. Its strange how these limestone mountains take on the shape of familiar things and after stopping briefly we continue our journey onto the island. The lake is over 255 million years old and was formed by yearsof dissolution and eventually the collapse of an underground cave network filling with rain water. The myth here being that drinking the water will bring fertility. There are a few ways to see the lake, one with a canoe and the other with a sea dart- an electric floating device that pulls you along through and under the water. I opt for the seadart and after 15minutes out on the far side of the lake it loses power and just stops. I wave and shout to try and get attention but it's only when someone else that's hired one comes close that I manage to get there attention and they go for help. It could only happen to me. He manages to get it going again but I feel a little nervous and just return to shore. Nevermind pregnant maiden more like damsel in distress. Back to the boat and we are taken to Eagle Island where we watch as white bellied sea eagles swoop down to feed the bread tossed to them by our boats. They really are majestic animals and I'm surprised by how big they are. There are also Brahminy Kites which are the brown birds that replicate the eagle at Kuah and the reason Langkawi has its name. Helang means eagle and kawi is the reddish-brown colour. We then take a pitstop at pulau beras basah and idyllic little island with the most beautiful beach. Whilst on the beach I'm joined by five young boys who invite me out but want me to pay for the beer. I politely decline and board back onto my boat. Safely back on shore I grab a quick bite to eat and get an early night.Okumaya devam et

      Change of plan

      26 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

      I wake this morning and have doubts about moving on. I'm supposed to be heading to the East Coast on the 1130 ferry which will get me into kuala perlis at around 1pm then an overnight bus at 8pm which means hanging around in the port for 7 hrs . The bus will arrive in at 430 am and I then have to wait for another ferry- all for a couple of days snorkeling on a remote island . After a good deal of thought I've decided to stick it out here and catch a direct flight to Sabah on the 30th at least I will get to watch the champions league final. On tge 1st and 2nd is a festival in Sabah and this will be an experience that I've never had compared to the snorkeling which I've done lots of. Yesterday I met a lovely lady called Lucky and when I go to Raos today she invites me to go kayaking for the sunset tonight which makes me really glad I stayed. Over the past few weeks ive seen rambuttans growing on one of the trees opposite Raos and when i mention it one of the guys goes and gives the tree a shake and comes back with an armful of them. I head to the beach for an hour and as i sit there i spot a submarine in the water. I shocked later when i show the guys the picture and they tell me its actually called submarine rock and has been there longer than me and i just haven't seen it before .The weather turns again and im always shocked at how quickly the clouds roll in and how it changes the look of the beach. I spend a few hours booking flights and looking at accommodation for my onwards travel. Where I'm staying they have been building a bar - rainbow bar which is near to completion and the great news is they are having a pre party the night of the champions league which means I can get to watch the game at 3am on a large screen. I'm pretty excited for this. The rain comes in later in the afternoon and Lucky messages me to ask if we can change to tomorrow for the kayaking as the weather isn't right and as much as I don't mind getting wet I certainly don't want to be out at sea in a storm in a kayak. I take myself back for an hours siesta and then head out for a bite to eat and a few drinks with uncle Johnny at the wunderbar Ken and Tom are her and quite shocked to see me. As I sit down i go to talk to the young guy next tto me to introduce myself and im also shocked when i realise its a mannequin We have an indepth chat about situations around the world before I head home for an early nightOkumaya devam et

      Here we are again

      27 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

      For the first time in a long time Uncle Johnny beats me to breakfast at Raos. I love this little place as so many locals eat here and I've met a lot of lovely people. Today is no exception as I meet good friends of uncle Johnny called Michael and Eunice. Its crazy as my Grandma was named Eunice and I called one if my chickens the same, but it's not a name you come across often anymore. I love to sit and chat to local people and for those that know me I can talk the rear end off a donkey. I also get chatting to another lady who makes tit bits which are little savoury snack made of butter ghee and spices and tells me that it's wonderful doing a job she loves. In the afternoon I lay in my hammock finishing my book and I think a leaf has fallen on me but when I look down a ghekko is perched on my leg. I remember a time when I would of jumped up and screamed, but I just lay here enjoying watching him. I do some more research and book my accommodation. I've opted for a dorm again as I'm hoping that i might find someone who's doing the trek that I can join up with. I also search for somewhere to get my nails painted, but when I enquire it's going to cost more than £50 so I decide to leave that idea and maybe try again I Saba. I have a good catch up with a few people at home and finish the evening with a bite to eat and a couple of beers in Wundabar. There are a few different people here but everyone knows uncle Johnny. A young guy called Daniel comes in and tells me his grandfather used to play with uncle Johnny but is a guy called Alfonso Soliano one of Malaysias greatest musicians and the score writer of the National anthem. Its crazy how connected people are here and I can really see why Langkawi is such a big draw for them. I just have a few beers and make my excuses before walking home.Okumaya devam et

      Champions league

      28 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ ⛅ 31 °C

      Breakfast in Raos my usual place consists of a Tose which is a pancake/thin omelette accompanied by a coconut chutney and Dahl with a brew coffee. I'm not a big eater in the mornings and curry for breakfast is definitely not the norm, but after a few months I'm kind of used to it and actually really enjoy it. I need to eat as much as possible today because there will be quite a few beers being sunk later and I need to absorb the alcohol. One of the locals has invited me and Uncle Johnny to his home to take advantage of his pool and I'm glad to say its a lot clearer than Uncle Johnny's and the views are spectacular. Its up in the hills and overlooks the mountains and paddy fields below. The rice grown here is grown on flat land unlike terraces in other parts of Asia. The crazy part is most of this rice is actually exported and the Malaysian people eat mainly white rice. We enjoy a few beers and I really enjoy the tranquility of this hillside location. I've arranged to join Andrew and Nathan at Flos but have to get a grab as it's pouring down. When I arrive the rain and wind is so torrential its pouring through the slatted windows and soaking the carpet and the doors are having to be held closed. We head to cinnamon for a farewell drink and Amy gives me a little present to say goodbye. It's also the pre opening of the bar that's been under construction opposite my room. The rainbow bar is also showing the game tonight on a big projector screen. At about 2am I stupidly think I'll get a quick hour shut eye , only to be woken at 440am to shouting and realise I've missed most of the game. I jump up and walk into the bar to find Real Madrid are 1 0 up and the shouting was being done by Man United supporters. I stay for the end of the game and although dissapointed I'm proud of the team. Thank God I literally only have to roll into bed.Okumaya devam et

      Last full day

      29 Mayıs 2022, Malezya ⋅ 🌧 29 °C

      I wake this morning but am sad as I know this is definitely my last full day. Nathan my fellow liverpool supporters is there and Uncle Johnny joins us a little while later. The chef has cooked a new dish called lala cockles they're a certain kind of cockle with the prettiest shell. I've been bitten again and I don't know what by but I think I was when we were at the steamboat the other night as its all at the backs of my legs and I think its probably something that was in the wooden benches. Nathan gives me some cream to put on it and it does ease the pain. I manage a good half hour phone call with Amber filling me in on the scenes back in my home city of Liverpool. Im sad to have missed the festivities but am also proud in the support the team has around the world. The weather today is crazy and the wind is like a mini hurricane. I've been invited to Eddie's birthday party tonight and grab a quick beer in flos to get a view of the sea. The waves are the biggest I've seen since travelling and I'm glad I'm indoors as sheets of corrugated roofing are getting lifted off the beachfront buildings. The guys offer me a lift to the supper club and I'm really glad to have gone here as its a great opportunity to say goodbye or Jumpa lagi (see you soon). I stay a few hours the head to Rainbow bar as Uncle Johnny is playing tonight and I gave him my word that I would go. Michael and Eunice are here and I really enjoy my evening spending time listening to music throughout the time I have 2 songs dedicated to me. I'm leaving on a jet plane and the Malaysian song Fiona. My heart is heavy as I say goodbye to these wonderful people who have made my time on Langkawi so special but it's 1am and my alarm is set for 730am so I bid my goodbye s with a little rendition of "time to say goodbye ".Okumaya devam et

      Hängebrücke

      1 Aralık 2022, Malezya ⋅ 🌧 25 °C

      Hang loose steht heute auf unserem Programm. Wir schauen, dass wir möglichst früh loskommen, weil wir zur wohl größten Attraktion Langkawis fahren. Eine Hängebrücke in schwindelerregender Höhe.
      Als wir ankommen ist nichts los. Aber ist schon erstaunlich zu sehen, wieviel Sonderstatus man sich hier erkaufen kann. Am Premiumparklatz spart man sich beispielsweise für ein paar Euro circa 30m Fußweg. Für 25€ pro Person, darf man in die Expresslinie, die einfach nur die Innenspur der Wendeltreppe ist. Und dann gibt es drei verschiedene Sorten von Gondeln: normale, Panorama mit Glasboden und VIP mit 3 gepolsterten Sitzen. Natürlich darf man als „Normalo“ auch nicht einfach in die nächste Gondel steigen zum Auffüllen und so ist es ja vorprogrammiert, dass es Staus gibt! Unglaublich!
      In der Gondel sind wir recht froh, das Wort „Doppelmayr“ zu entdecken. So hoch über dem Boden mit nur einer Stütze ist man/frau in Europa noch nie gewesen. Bei jedem Ein- und Ausstieg werden Fotos von uns gemacht, bis wir irgendwann verneinen. Wieder mal zum Erstaunen, drucken sie auch alle Fotos in Sekundenschnelle aus! Es werden bestimmt 95% davon weggeschmissen!
      Vom Panorama und der Darbietung der Brücke sind wir nicht so begeistert. Da sind wir aus dem Alpenraum einfach andere Kaliber gewöhnt. Trotz allem, ein schöner Ausflug und von oben wirklich eine richtig steile Schlucht. Und warum man wieder einen kleinen Supermarkt oben am Berg braucht, ist auch fraglich.
      Schilder weisen überall darauf hin, dass Affen nicht gefüttert werden dürfen. Ein paar von ihnen lungern auch entlang der Wegs und wir dürfen dann beobachten, wie geschickt sie Mülleimer für Mülleimer umkippen und öffnen, um etwas Essbares zu finden. Und als wir zum Zuschauen scheinbar etwas zu lange stehenbleiben, fährt uns ein Großer ziemlich aggressiv an, so ungefähr „schleichts euch!“.
      Unten ist jedenfalls auch noch viel geboten. Inklusive (erstaunlich dass sie dafür nichts verlangen!) sind ein Museum zum Fotos machen mit gemalten Hintergründen und ein 3D Dinosaurier Kino, bei dem Momo ziemlich Angst bekommt. Als Mittagessen gibts dann die leckeren Germknödel mit rote Bohnen Füllung und Schokofüllung. Außerdem natürlich etwas Chicken für Holger. Und für die Vitamine nötige ich alle bei einem Straßenverkauf einer Bananen- und Ananasplantage stehenzubleiben. Frischer gehts ja wohl nicht! :)
      Während eines ausgedehnten Mittagsschläfchens für alle beginnt es zu regnen und hört auch so schnell nicht mehr auf. Zum ersten Mal sind die Moskitos eine Spur angriffslustiger, aber wir haben genug Autan dabei. Wir spielen und malen in unserem Wohnzimmer und gehen dann für eineinhalb Stunden im Pool plantschen. Natürlich erhalten wir als Gegenzug fürs viele Lachen und Kreischen wieder zwei Kokosnüsse :) Holger ist währenddessen noch einkaufen und besorgt ein paar Happen fürs Abendessen. Und so verbringen wir den Nachmittag mal ganz „zu Hause“.      Okumaya devam et

      Langkawi

      26 Aralık 2022, Malezya ⋅ ☁️ 30 °C

      Seit zwei Tagen verweilen wir nun auf Langkawi, einer großen Insel in der Andamanensee, an der Grenze zu Thailand. Flo hat sich leider eine dicke Erkältung zugezogen, daher sind wir jetzt richtig froh, dass wir hier einfach mal nur abhängen und auftanken können. Unser Bungalow liegt direkt am Meer, es ist einfach herrlich hier.
      Einziger Wermutstropfen: Im Meer können die giftigsten und tödlichsten Quallen der Welt vorkommen, die Würfelquallen. Diese kamen bisher eigentlich nur in Australien vor, haben sich seit einigen Jahren aber immer weiter ausgebreitet und schwimmen jetzt eben auch an den Küsten Malaysias (und leider auch schon im Golf von Thailand und um ganz Indonesien) umher. Ein Grund dafür ist die Erwärmung der Meere und dass der Lebensraum von Meeresschildkröten vom Menschen immer mehr eingeschränkt wird. So geht die Population der Schildkröten stark zurück, welche eine der wenigen Fressfeinde der giftigen Würfelquallen sind.
      Ein Teil des Strandes ist durch ein Netz abgezäunt, aber hundertprozentig schützt das nicht vor den Quallen. Wir sind im Moment noch extrem vorsichtig und gehen quasi nicht ins Meer. Eine ausgewachsene Qualle kann ein Kind in fünf Sekunden töten… mit diesem Wissen im Hintergrund ist ein Bad im Meer natürlich wenig entspannt!

      Aber es gibt zum Glück zwei richtig schöne Pools in unserem Resort und das Meer ist auch spannend, ohne dass man hineingeht. Am ersten Morgen finden wir bei Ebbe zum Beispiel einen Baby-Oktopus am Strand. Der wäre dort verendet, wenn Freddi ihn nicht mit der Schaufel aufgehoben und in einen Eimer mit Wasser getan hätte. Er saugt sich sofort an der Schaufel fest und braucht eine ganze Weile, bis er sich wieder erholt hat. Direkt danach können wir an einem Event teilnehmen, wo uns die Tiere gezeigt werden, die an unserem Strand vorkommen. Dazu wird ein Netz ins Meer und wieder heraus gezogen, und darin kommen jede Menge Fische, Krebse, Seesterne und Quallen zum Vorschein. (Es gibt auch ungiftige Quallen hier).

      Am Abend gibts lecker frischen Fisch (Rotbarsch) zu essen, das genießen vor allem Flo und Merlin sehr!      Okumaya devam et
