Up at 5.30 to pack and get back on the train. All went smoothly. Met a girl called Emily who was Canadian and slightly crazy. Also met Ryan and Caroline who were also heading to Krabu. We all hopped in the back of this truck with all of our bags and made it to the trainstation. Booked on the us to go to Krabi and it was only 169 baht so about 3 squib for a 5 hour journey. Had lunch of rice and chicken with a lot of chilli in it. Arrived and got in a tax...

Chilled out in the morning, up quiet early to pack up. Had breakfast but it was't as good as yeaterday. Got back to Kuah and but my bags in storage and had a wander around there before getting back on the ferry. Hour and a half later arrived back in Kuala Kedah and then managed to get back to Alor Setar and into the hostel. Had a wander around the town which was actually quiet rough and I was the only tourist to be seen. Some really nice architecture though...

Really nice up there though and there was even a breeze, I haven't felt one of those in a while. Had some lunch and headed back to the hostel. Sat by...

Made it to the ferry terminal and sat and had coffee before getting on the ferry for a couple of hours to get to Langkawi. There are no buses on the island so I had to get in a taxi to get to the hostel but thankfully all the rat...

Quiet a boring day. Just packing up and getting ready to finally leave KL. Piled everything into my new bag and thank goodness it all fits. Booked hostel in Langkawi. Finally got to the evening and managed to get to the train station all OK although if I had known what the monorail was like during rush hour I would have got in a cab. It makes the london underground look like nothing, there were people piled on top of each other, faces pressed to the windows....
