Summer Couple trip to Langkawi (6 - 9 Aug 2023)


This is the highlight of hubby's 40th birthday, we had a short gateway to Langkawi for 4 days 3 nights.
We took Scoot flight on Sunday afternoon and reached there around dinner time.





Our room got upgraded to Junior suite and his Accor membership card was upgraded to Gold member, it's such a coincidence and it happened on his birthday. And our room number is 805 which is the mirror of his birth date.


After checking in, we had seafood dinner by the beach at Bamboo Chenang while watching Fire show.




On the next day, we had plan for mangrove exploring in the afternoon. The weather was not friendly in the morning, it's pouring the whole morning. Thanks God, it's cleared up by 1pm so we could enjoy our excursion.










We visited bat cave, fish farm, mangrove exploration and finish it with late lunch at floating restaurant.
We had so much fun on the second day at Langkawi.






On the 3rd day, we planned to go to Sky bridge and sky cab to have bird's view of Langkawi, unfortunately it was pouring so we detoured to crocodile park.











Thanks God, it's cleared up in the afternoon so we could have jetski island hopping tour for 4 hours.
We loved this adventure, blending with nature, swimming in the salt lake water, watching eagle feeding, crushing the wave.










In the evening, we had romantic seafood dinner by the sea and had ice chendol for dessert before returning  back to hotel.

We catch morning flight back to Singapore on National Day and had privilege to take pictures with Scoot's air crew.






It's a refreshing getaway for both of us.

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 7)

This is the highlight of Cappadocia which is hot air balloon ride. As it depends a lot on the weather, we were lucky that we could fly to watch sunrise. We were picked up around 5.30am in the morning to Urgup area and arrived 20 mins later. They provided us with light breakfast while they lit up the balloon.  We started riding it around 6.20am and it's so breathtaking to see the Goreme area and hundreds of balloon joining us. The sunrise is around 7am and by 7.30am we already landed safely.  We had champagne celebration and received certificate too and returned back to our hotel for breakfast. Around 10am, we were picked up for Green Valley tour. Stopped by at Goreme Panorama and Pigeon valley for photo spots. After that, we went to Underground city where Anatolian people lived underground to survive from natural disaster and dangers. It's amazing how they build the houses and lived there for a long period of time. Then, we continued our tour to Selime Monastery and Cathedral ...

Reflection

It's been such a long time that I sit down, press a pause button and reflect back what has happened in my life, what things I should be grateful, what are the lesson learnt and what I should improve Things have gone so fast in my life and it's like unending cycle. It's been almost 2 months since I helmed the new project in the company I am working and it took half of my life. I felt like I had a new baby but not "literally baby", it's more responsibility as many lives are on stakes. I had no experience, no mentor and coach, no team per say, only one person who's not hundred percent fully committed in this project and on top of that, the company threw me in the deep sea that  I need to swim and survive. It reminded me back when I started my motherhood journey. With no knowledge, no experience, no mentor, no helpers and little money, we need to nurture the living baby and finally we survived. The first one was always the harder, but after the second and thir...

Dreams come true - Cappadocia (day 6)

It's time for another dream destination - Cappadocia. After arriving at Athens International Airport, we miscalculated the transit time. We only gave 1.5 hours in between without realising that we needed to change the airline and domestic route so we rushed out and checked in 25 minutes before the flight departed. Thanks God, we were still allowed for checking in. After settling in Turkish airlines, we were provided with warm baguette and drinks which could calm ourselves and our seat was next to emergency door so we got leg room. We arrived at Cappadocia airport which was very small and reminded me on my hometown's airport in the old days. Then we were picked up by airport transfer to our cave hotel - Panoramic cave hotel. The journey to the hotel was amazing, we saw many natural chimneys that we never saw before. Arriving in the hotel, we checked in to our pigeon nest room which was chimney suite and never stop took pictures of the room and the scenery surrounding. In the lat...
