Dreams That Come True

When I just arrived at Malaysia about 4 years ago, I heard people talked about Langkawi like Indonesians said about Bali. It really makes me so curious to go there. I kept on dreaming to go to Langkawi until finally I found Air Asia’s BIG SALE, which answer all my dreams.
So I went to Langkawi with my family during my school holidays. It was an amazing trip for me, because all things that I dreamt of this time eventually come true.
We decided to go for Go-Kart for our first activity, it was so nice for me. While driving the go-kart, I felt that I was the real racer competing with my sister who also enjoyed it very much. Next, we went to Langkawi Cable Car. There is no other word to describe the Cable Car except AMAZING, because we can see the very beautiful panorama from the top of the hill which is 705 meters above the sea level. On top of the hill, there is a hanging bridge which is scary but at the same time is fun. After walking at the hanging bridge, my father brought us to Kuah, the city centre of Langkawi.
Next, we went to Cenang Beach, the most famous beach in Langkawi. The beach was very clean and very nice. In Cenang Beach, we played parasailing. Parasailing was just AWESOME cause it was the best activity that I’ve ever had in my life.
On the next day, we went for Island Hopping. It was a great experience that I’ve had. Firstly, our tour guide brought us to see Dayang Bunting Island, which means Pregnant Lady Island which has the Lake with natural water. Over there, we can swim in the lake which is very close to the sea. And also, we meet people from many nations and races. Secondly, we were brought to see the eagle feeding attractions. We were able to see closely a lot of eagles flying on top of the sea getting their food on the water. And that was just great. Before going back to the beach, our tour guide brought us to Beras Basah Island. The island was AMAZING, with white sandy beaches, and we can see clearly beautiful fishes swimming under the water.
At night, my father brought us to taste some tasty Thailand food at Wan Thai Restaurant. The foods were very tasty and nice. It is really unforgettable experience.
Unfortunately, that was my last journey in Langkawi. I feel very excited, and sad at the same time. I hope I can come back to Langkawi again one day.
