More Langkawi

It was a short motor trip from the fijord to the anchorage off Kuah town. Once we had the hook firmly set we contacted our friend Phil and his partner Naylene who have lived here in Langkawi for the last six years. We met Phil while he was doing a short delivery of a boat from Australia to the Marshall islands and knowing that we would someday we would visit Malaysia made sure to get his address. They run a sunset charter business for tourists and spent a day driving us about and showing us the basics of Kuah Town.













I mentioned the sea eagles that we see everywhere, below is a rather large one taking off on it's evening fishing trip.















After a short time in town it was time to head out
to another anchorage area. here we did a bit of beach combing along with a complete cleaning of the boat bottom. just as you would mow your lawn.







It's quite amazing what sort of things you find along the beaches. Here I found a full and very cold one liter bottle of home brewed beer.
A few days later it was back to town where I managed to hook up with another old friend.
