Top 10 reasons why I won't be re-visiting Langkawi anytime in near future :

1. Babies screamin their little lungs out throughout the ferry ride; both ways.
2. It rained cats and dogs. And mabbe a lembu or two.
3. The place was jammed packed with tourists. I could have sworn I was in Saudi...
4. The tourist attractions were overpriced and under-maintained.
5. The morons next door belted out lagu-lagu Balada till 2 in the morning; both nights. Try picturing Ramli Sarip crossed with the helium-voiced Mika. And add a dash of that bastard called Aznil Nawawi. Finally manage to shut their piehole after I lodged a complaint with the management.
6. Food mostly sucked. Except for a few acceptable ones near Kuah.
7. The car I rented came with eksos senget 45 darjah. Shouting was compulsory to avoid getting drowned out by the booming din.
8. Kerbaus everywhere. I kid you not.
9. The price of duty free goods varied greatly from place to place. You have to comb the entire town to get the best price.
10. Couldn't get any decent shots throughout the entire trip due to overcast skies. And when it did clear up... it was time to go home.

But there were a few gems which popped up once in a while, but they were rare and way too far in between.

This car should have came with accompanying earplugs. But to it's credit, it didn't breakdown once over the 3 days I was there. Most important... it was clean. But I almost suffocated to death from the lethal cocktail of air fresherners.
