Ok...i'm sooo busy with work but now i'm back....before that, here's my diary for this whole week at Royal Langkawi International Regatta 2007.

Royal Langkawi International Regatta 2007

DAY 1 - Monday
Arrived at Langkawi around 11.05 am. Then, lepak-lepak dalam hotel for an hour, waiting for my roomate-Hanim from TV3. Then, heading to Langkawi Yatch Club for press briefing, etc....Just normal day, no adventure yet.

DAY 2 - Tuesday
Quite exciting, dapat gi sailing. See all the boats racing. Kitorang dapat naik cruise boat yg lebih besar & luxury daripada boat media yg lagi satu. Tak de rasa sea sick, maintain... ;-P After all, bukan gi open sea pun. Race course pulak dekat area2 Langkawi Yatch Club. But, race habis lambat...around 5 pm. Team Quantum Racing menang. Shared my sun block with Ghaz & abg ikken... Malam tak hectic sangat, had dinner at Telaga Harbour Park. Lebih kurang 40 minit from our hotel kat Kuah. Aku, Ghaz, Abg Ikken sempat tidur sepanjang pergi & balik.

DAY 3 - Wednesday
Really exciting & amazing day. For the 1st time aku dibawa sailing ke open sea. The wind's quite strong, i guess more than 25 knots. Ombak pun kuat. Cruise boat yang kitorang naik pun macam nak terbalik plak. Then, kena halau dengan skipper multihull class, team Moto Inzi sebab boat kitorang terlalu dekat ngan kapal diorang. Pastu, pilot boat kitorang plak siap tangkap ikan siakap..besar giler....aku, Logan, Steve & Tasha pulak lencun abis kena air laut. But...it's quite good, experince paling best yang aku rasa kat Langkawi setakat 3 hari ni.

DAY 4 - Thursday
Thursday, feeling sick with cough & flu. Not joining them gi laut. Just stay @ hotel room all morning, working on my article for Metro Ahad. Ordinary day...not that spectacular like yesterday...But i'm sooo jealous of them coz the wave & wind quite strong today & they had a very very bumpy boat ride. Dinner at Kampung Tok Senik Resort, in the middle of the jungle. Quite scary tapi ok laa. Thasha said she saw something up on the tree so Abg Apai & Wan tried to distract her by making crap jokes. After dinner, went out to Awana Porto Malai with Logan The Star, Steve the photographer, Thasha & Valerie. Promised to go out & have a teh tarik with Shah Utusan, so Steve hantar balik hotel then diorang sambung gi makan kerang bakar kat mana entah.

DAY 5 - Friday
The last day of the race. Yey!!! Today, i'm on board with the media boat. Won't miss the last chance. One sports boat nyaris langgar ngan boat kitorang sebab diorang salah turn. Then, that same boat langgar plak marshal boat...scary tapi interesting...Going bcak to KL tomorrow morning, aroung 11 am. Then, straight to the office untuk siapkan story Metro Ahad. Hopefully boleh off hari Ahad ni. :-)
