Langkawi, Malaysia - Sunshine and Saltwater

For Chinese New Year this year, I escaped the cold Beijing weather and enjoyed the sunshine in Malaysia. We thought about staying here:

But, there was no vacancy. We didn't do much on this trip. Mostly, we read books, spent time in the sun, swam in the pool and ocean, and relaxed.

We were visited by wildlife poolside.

And on the walk to and from the pool.

We decided one day that we should probably leave the hotel and see something else, so we booked a trip to go check out the mangroves.

We visited a bat cave.

We saw some wild dogs.

We licked salty leaves.

We had lunch in a floating restaurant.

In the evening, we went to the night market.

When we got back, we canceled everything else, so we could lie by the pool and on the beach, read, relax, and swim. We also had massages.
