Langkawi, Day 4

We chose to do very little with our last day in Langkawi and so woke without an alarm to another tasty breakfast and a relaxing swim. The weather closed in quickly, ushering in high winds before the rain, so we took the opportunity to go to the gym. There are also tennis and squash courts here, spa and sauna, and mountain bikes for hire.

After another swim we cabbed into Kuah Town in search of a manicure (for me) and motorbike wheels (Dom) but only found an excellent lunch at a local 'restaurant' of Hiananese chicken rice ($1.70) - one of my favourite asian dishes of rice cooked in stock, served with poached or roasted chicken, cucumber slivers and a chilli sauce.


We then went back to the pool and didn't leave until after the sun set! We met some interesting people poolside, and chatted late into the evening.
The Westin Langkawi Resort and Spa was a wonderful place to spend a few relaxing days. It had beautiful grounds with an interesting view, great facilities and attentive and cheerful staff.
