Day 2 in Langkawi, Malaysia

Posted on by sonokotchi

Ate a power breakfast at Invito Hotel before heading for Langkawi.


Took a Malinda Air to Langkawi.



Yeah, Langkawi!


We stayed at the Dayang Bay Resort.

I had a nice ocean view.


The room is simple, but cozy.


We went to Malay traditional body massage and I highly recommend this Spa, the Bellies Spa.


We went to dinner.

We are advised Chinese restaurant Pat Poh by a taxi driver; but I don’t recommend this restaurant.

I think we were ripped off coz we are foreigners.

Quality is not there, but food is expensive! 

It wasn’t worth taking a photo, so I didn’t take any.

I warn you, don’t go to Pat Poh!

Day 1 in Kuala Lumpur

Posted on by sonokotchi

Somehow connection was bad in Malaysia, not able to upload my blog.

This is what happened on the first day in Malaysia.


We arrived Kuala Lumpur early in the morning.

Unfortunately, we couldn’t check in our rooms, but hotel is kind to allow us to use their shower booths at the gym.


I could use a waiting room equipped with AC. Yeah

After we got ready, we went out.


Malaysia just celebrated Deepavali on 28 October, a Hindu Festival; I could find Deepavali decoration everywhere.

These arts are made by colored rice.



I enjoyed Malay food and many different types of durian desserts.

This is Nasi Lamat.


Durian Desserts.

This is glutinous rice with durian soup.


Durian layered cake and durian puffs


I had a durian day.

I didn’t eat this, but I would like to share this photo because this durian cake does look like a real durian with such details. 

Amazing!


This Moonlight Cafe House serves other nice cakes as well: mango cake.

These are surely something that I cannot have it in Japan.
In Kuala Lumpur, we stayed at Invito Hotel.

It’s spacious and equipped with a kitchen.



We decided to go to Langkawi♪

Short Trip to Malaysia

Posted on by sonokotchi


On 3 November, it is Japanese national holiday, Cultural Day.
I found ANA’s new line, NH 885 between Handa (Tokyo) and Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. 


This flight departs Haneda at 00:05 hrs and arrives KL at 6:45 hrs.

I can work on the departure day to maximize my stay in Malaysia.

It’s worth taking few days off, right?

I took dinner at ANA Lounge;

enjoyed snacks/finger food with champagne on the plane;


we had a breakfast (eggs Benedict style with veal sausage served with Japanese Hiruzen jersey butter and blood orange jam) before arriving KL.


Let’s start my holiday in Malaysia!
