New years eve

A Beautiful and extraordinary warm day, so I even went into the water! A surprise - to me too!

A night out

Just like any normal Ulrika-evening.. Noot!! But we had a fun time!

An easy life

I haven't done much the last 2 days, just reading and sunbathing. All that know me, also know I don't go for a swim. All to get you worked up, right?! ;-)

Traditional house

Could have been in Vietnam..but spotted this one just a few minutes away from Pantai Cenang.

Scenery

Was beautiful, and, as always here lush green and blue.

Kuah town

A truly boring place. Didn't stop for long.

20 - 1

They're cute like this, but not when they just keep coming toward you - in gangs!

Friend or foe?

Definately to be seen as the latter when you're stuck in the jungle!

Stranded

The scooter just died on of - right in the middle of nowhere! Of course no network here..

Out on a scooter safari

Wild life, just 5 min away from tourist 'highway'.

Sunset

I have done nothing today but stare at the sea, and read a book under this tree.

Monkeys

We saw at least 20, most within a metre or two! And Yesterday one tried to snatch my breakfast, but the cats helped me out.

Island hopping

..was up for today, here is just one of the beaches we stopped at.

AB Motel, Pantai Cenang

This is where I'm staying in Langkawi.

Time for breakfast

..a breeze and a view at the new place.

Pantai Centang

So, this will be my Christmas home. I like! :-D

KLIA airport

Cool architecture on the ceiling. I'm soon off to Langkawi island. B-)

Chinatown cuisine

Lovely chicken w cashewnuts and fried rice!

KL, Railway station

From 1896, it stands there as out of a 'saga'. This is only about a quarter of the building.

KL, Merdeka Square

The historical heart of KL. Here's the high court building.

KL Petrona towers

As seen from KL tower, 421 m high.

Majestic, and visible from all places.

Thanks God I got a place here, Pondok Lodge was a true dump!

Loved this movie, and of course the music is brilliant too!

Government building

A look at the actual building, from down under...

A view over the city and surroundings. Perhaps you can see Tokyo dome at the back?

Kawazaki, Lazona

Wonderful new & modern shopping galleria!

Fugu dinner

We tried the extremely poisonous fish - delicious!

Dean & Deluca

My favourite breakfast place.

Tokyo

A proper sushi bar makes a good start of this stay!

A nice place for a coffee and a gaze at the 'Jordaans'.

Schumann and Dvorcak in a good concert.

Our design home for these days. Nice!

A wonderful exhibition!

A weekend in the city of canals.
