Langkawi to Phuket in Thailand

Finally after what felt like many long weeks waiting and w a i t i n g
 for minor repairs to be done at Telaga marina
 We set off sailing again. What a great feeling.
The sunsets and sunrises the wind in the face.
We really enjoyed the first few days.


There was always something spectacular.
We hope that you can see the rainbow.

On our 10 day long voyage to Thailand we visited this "Hole in the wall"
a natural park in Malaysia. The opening was almost that-a hole in a wall.

It was a very very narrow entry.
Suddenly the water was almost still in here. So protected from the winds.

This was really very special...there were about 20 or so eagles just circling.

Lots of tourist arrive here few times per day to see the eagles.
They have trined them to come for a feed ass soon as they hear the boats.

Taking a great eagle picture was not the easiest task.
This is the best I was able to get.

Our first stop in Thailand. So so different to sleepy Malaysia.
There was a great big party going on till 3 am in the morning.
This is also the time when the toilet broke
we noticed problem with dinghy
 and the very first sign of engine troulble.

The next day our plans were changed
and instead of taking the scenic route to Thailand we took the most direct one.
 Robert was not happy to take any chances with the engine
 that didn't want to start easily.
