Langkawi Getaway

We had a three day weekend because of Ramadan so we decided to take advantage of it and go on a little beach vacation at the Andaman Resort in Langkawi, Malaysia.  We wanted to go somewhere pretty close and low key for our first trip in southeast Asia with Caroline and this was the perfect place.  We are still getting used to traveling with an infant so this served as a good test run.

We started off the first day with massages.  Unfortunately we could not enjoy our massages at the same time like we used to do on vacations due to baby duties. It was so enjoyable in the open air cliff side villa.  Although during my massage I could hear the wild monkeys ransacking a nearby villa.

The rest of our weekend consisted of eating, hanging out by the pool, and relaxing in our room.  We had intentions of going to the cable car on the island but due to logistical issues and potentially long holiday lines, we decided to stay around the resort.

Swimming really wears them out
Before dinner the first night
Feeling the sand between her toes
Super baby!
Sleepy poolside snuggles
Watching the waves
Dinner with a view
Caroline has proven to be an excellent traveler and we think she genuinely enjoyed vacation.  I know we loved getting to spend some quality time with her and just wish that she could remember the wonderful time we had.  We learned some valuable travel lessons on this trip which we used on our trip to Vietnam.  More to come!
