We're on a short 2D1N spontaneous holiday with my 2 little rascals. As usual, recording footsteps on the breastfeeding rooms we found. This time around is Central Festival at Hatyai.

Langkawi-Koh Lipe family trip 2014
Off we went for a short holiday again. This round we have 6 people, including my 82-year-old grandma and my little 21-month-old cheeky koala. It's another challenging trip having to travel with my grandma (Imagine boarding ferry and long-tail boat a few rounds with an 80+ senior citizen!! And yea we brought her out for the island hopping trip too~) but we've so used to running around everywhere with our oldest and youngest in the family, so it was considered a smooth one.
Most people would go through Pak Bara, but we prefer Langkawi. To save time and effort on booking separately, we threw the task to our regular use agent to settle it, in fact the price is almost the same but we just have to pack and go. And I only booked Langkawi hotels on my own.
*If you want to have the contact you may just PM me through my email.

Phuket: A day out in Island Safari
I like elephants! I like almost all kinds of wildlife. But when I was so excited about going for an elephant trekking, one of my friends was reluctant to do so, because she was scared of furry things, and of course she's afraid of getting too close to animals. Howeve when we reached Island Safari, she changed her mind. =) So you see, gigantic elephants are cute afterall!
It's always crazy to go for outdoor activities without sun shades. First activity of the day -- 4x4 safari jeep ride.
Finally we arrived at the river bank. That's our second canoe activities after the first one 2 days ago at Phang Nga Bay. This one was exciting, we didn't even have to paddle hard, basically the canoe was flowing with the tide. However we nearly missed catching the rope on the other long tail boat to go back to where we parked the jeep!
And guess what... our friend's canoe was caught inside a whirl pool near the river bank. There was a broken bridge at the side and while they were paddling, their canoe went offside heading towards the bridge. Poor them as the water was flowing quite fast and they had to go against it to get out from there. What a mess.
When we got back to the Safari, and went for Ox-cart riding. There were lots of poo poo all over the ground... and the ox was peeing even it's walking! Stinky poo poo and pee pee...
The kampung boy.
Afte that was Thai cooking demonstration. Have some green papaya salad. Taste good.
Then we watched Muay Thai (Thai Boxing). I was quite disappointed when I knew that we wouldn't have enough time to watch Muay Thai during the visit because the first 3 nights we were enjoying food and massage. But this 'educational' demo was just in time as it's good enough to show how they fight (it doesn't matter lar...since no time to spectaculate a real fight).
Finally came the elephant riding time! These giants are adorable too. But only they stink (all wildlife stinks, just accept that).
The "hairy porter" asking to be fed. Just pay for the bananas, they're not costly.
So finally I was riding on the elephant! Bumpy roads up and down the hill. It was jerking as if you're excelerating and then braking frequently... good experience. Worst when it's going down hill...was a bit scary.
After the ride we watched the baby elephant show. Meet the toddlers. They're not even a year old.
Elephant NBA. He performs it everyday!
Or even football~ Goal Goal Goal.
How about a tonne of massage? I would say this is X-factor. Dare to give it a try?
Maybe enjoy a special massage for the guys. 'Treasure hunt'. Hahhaha... The keeper put a banana into his pants.
Last but not least, meet Miss World 2008, Samlee. The beauty queen loves shaking hands.
Monkey plucking coconut. Something special for the Caucasians but that's what we call it a day for the monkeys in the villages here in our country too.
In conclusion, don't miss the program. Spend a day out in the green with the animals. Or at least try the elephant ride. Like I did. I love it.
