Hi guys, few of us Malaysian BRO make it to a holiday hideaway from city last 2 weekend. And i'd like to share some photos Just sit back and enjoy I know some of you may have seen it but let me share it here as well smile

I was at the jetty waiting for my ferry,note the local fisherman boats at the back, to get into Langkawi Island, an island in North Malaysia while the others took a flight from Kuala Lumpur.



And i get seated in the ferry at this time...


And right after i meet the other guys there, we took a first picture! Errr...our watches took the first picture


And the first lady get the smug shot smile


And my friend warms up his dSLR... smile

The Blue face...


The Dark couple...watches i meant smile


My Carbon Gold aka CG!


The husband and wife...


And the Orange Chrono!


And lunch was served smile


BROs starts to get busy smile




We head straight to hotel after lunch...The Andaman Hotel


Its this hour when we finally reach the hotel lobby lounge.


The view from the lobby lounge...




And we refresh ourselves with the welcome drink


And the rooms...


(It wasnt messy like this, i took a nap before i took this picture )



And its time for the beach strolling! Look at the sun shining on my BR!


And my CG has to stay at home cause i did not bring the velcro !


The beach!!


According to the hotel attendant, it was much cleaner before this. Ever since the great Tsunami hits, it broughts a lot of marine life to this part of the beach...

And i saw some of the nice corals and reefs....




A sea urchin, out of hundreds there...


And i found some seashells... a hobby since childhood...



Sunset time! Wish i had a BR02 to show the hour !








After seeing sunset, we proceed to dinner! Yeah! Malaysian loves to eat and BRO loves to eat too!


We went to this seafood restaurant called Wonderland, thanks to a local watch friend who recommended the place and checked the bill as well! Thanks Andrew!


And the Tigers!



Tigers with BROs!




And we ended the 1st day as it was nearly 12am when we reach hotel after the seafood dinner

Execellent photos. Some even suspect that Bell & Ross sponsored our trip. Funny. Any way, I expect a better coverage from you for the coming Cameron Highland trip. Shall we make it a Seiko trip this time? We should seriously ask for sponsor this time. Reg...
