A Day Out with Coomera
   We took the ferry shuttle over ‘to
the other side’ and a quick taxi ride to Cenang to
meet Helen and Mark (Coomera) at the Underwater World. They had asked a
man for directions to our ferry stop but he said “no such place”, they asked
where does the Rebak Resort ferry come in “no such resort” and each different
way they could think to illicit the simply answer they needed,......... they
gave up with the negative answers and rang us.
 We were soon looking up to the cable car (just visible – the middle point a useful
pointer......but it only looks like three tiny dots, a must do one day soon) at
Telaga Marina. We found that the chandlery is only open from two until six so we
went in search of brunch.
  Looking
right and left, we could be in many
Continental ports.
 We settled in The Loaf and everyone
had the Special (beef rashers as no pork in these
parts), I had a little salad as I couldn’t possibly have fought my way through
such an epic.
 We went to an Artisan Batik indoor
market and saw some beautiful tops, bags, sarongs etc. – all hand painted.
Outside was this rather splendid staghorn fern
complete with dangles.
 Frangipani
everywhere.
 Via a fruit market stall and the
chandlers we headed for the beach. These sharks looking
pretty sad.
  Not as sad as this
once lovely building – we thought may have been a restaurant.
 Looking out to
sea.
  Big rocks.
  To our left the
Cement Works dominate, to our right a lovely
beach.
 Mark drove us to the Royal Langkawi
Yacht Club for a drink or two where we enjoyed the ambience of a modern and well
run marina. At the bottom of the stairs is a collection of
propellers who had ‘had a bad day’. Then it was a quick stop for us to
pick up some salad and then back to our food stalls by the ferry. We, being
creatures of habit had our satay chicken, rice and a small coke for the princely
sum of three pounds and twenty pence. Helen and Mark were off to have KFC. Back
on the last ferry, what a great day out.
ALL IN ALL A SMASHING DAY
FULL OF VARIETY
A LOVELY DAY GOING ROUND
