Early in the morning, we take the 9.30am ferry to langkawi. We also rented the hotel, book the island hopping and rent the car at the jetty kuala kedah before go to langkawi.After couple of hours, we reach the langkawi. We went to take the rented car and directly go to the motel we rented.The location of motel is very nice. It's on the beach. Have a beautiful beach view.After we put our baggage in the room, we went to KFC Cenang Mall for our lunch. We had a happy lunch, because it's without any tax (gov tax) and also very hungry.

Our first day be spent in Underwater Water Langkawi. It is the famous and only aquarium in North Malaysia. It got a lot of species of fishs and animals such as penguin, seals, sharks and so on.The most famous is the penguins. There are two species of penguins in the aquarium. One is African penguin and another one is Rockhopper penguin. They are so cute, and also other animals. Then, we went to mall to buy liquors back to hotel to drink. Those are cheap due to duty free.At the night, we played the game with drinking beer, cider and wine. This was a happy night.
