Langkawi Day 2

On day 2, we went for Island Hopping. We went to three beautiful islands. Langkawi has hundreds of small islands. These are the most popular. The first one is Pulau Dayang Bunting (The Island of the Pregnant maiden) which the Lake of the Pregnant Maiden is located. The lake is said to have healing power to the barren lady. Uh, well, I don't know... they say... so ask "them"
See the shape? It's looks like a pregnant lady lying on her back. Most of the islands here are intrusive of precambrian limestone or something (hey! how do they describe it?) In layman's word, they are of limestone (marble) and they are very very very old. Thet is why they made to various shapes. next, we went for eagle watching at Pulau Singa Besar (The Big Lion island)

Well, the camera is not the latest in market one .. but still can see... okay lor. :D

Lastly we moved to Pulau Beras Basah (the Island of Wet Rice - betuika?)

The picture was quite hard to capture bacause it was not suitable for children's view. keh keh keh so... this is the best we can shoot. But the island is beautiful. With white soft sandy beach, blue crystal clear water... Owh! heaven!
