【Langkawi • 美食】Smiling Buffalo @ Langkawi - 绿意盎然的特色咖啡馆

去年的今天，我们身在 Langkawi，进行着我的 birthday trip！还记得那是一个下着雨的早晨，我们坐车来到这家绿意盎然的特色咖啡馆 -- Smiling Buffalo，悠哉的享用着我们的早午餐，悠悠闲闲的过了一个很写意的上午。

一年后的今天，我们因为疫情而留在家中。经过将近三个月的解说，小胖终于明白为何我们只能呆在家。许久未出门的小胖已经在盘算，疫情过后我们要去海边玩沙、去河边野餐、去动物园看动物，当然还有再次踏上旅途，最好可以回到 Langkawi。

既然短期内我们都没办法去旅行，那么就先来回味一下一年前的今天，我们吃到的美食，在这里看到的美景吧！

【Langkawi • 亲子游】带着小胖一起悠游 Langkawi 兰卡威 4D3N - 重新爱上了这个海岛

对于Langkawi 兰卡威这个海岛，我的印象一直都是酒鬼天堂，巧克力圣地！因为免税的关系，这里的啤酒差点就要比矿泉水便宜了。然而，暌违五年，再一次踏足这个海岛却让我重新认识并爱上它了。一起来看看我们带着小胖一起悠游 Langkawi 四天三夜都做了什么...

这一次的旅程除了是碰巧遇上连假和便宜机票，还是我们说了许久的birthday trip。但是，在启程前竟然上演一出《差点就上不了飞机之小胖生病记》！话说，我们是星期日中午的班机，小胖在星期五开始出现咳嗽的迹象，晚上的时候更是难以入眠，貌似气管的毛病又要发了。星期六早上，带着小胖去看中医，医师说小胖有点喘，要我带他去诊所吸气。好吧！医生一看，果然不出我所料，气管的毛病又犯了，而且还不算轻，唯一庆幸的是没有发烧。当时我真的担心极了，小胖爸也提早回来帮忙看顾，我们当时真的做好随时把机票和酒店烧掉的准备了。但是，小胖却还是非常期待和坚持这趟旅程。于是，我们就四个小时跑诊所一趟吸气，中西药合璧，加上小胖的勇敢和意志力，晚上睡了很好的一觉，隔天的精神竟然大好！（旅行真的是治万病的良药啊！）启程的那个早上，我们还在去机场前先去吸最后一次的气。当然，出发前已经和医生沟通好，也已经找好万一在那里有突发状况的话可以到哪里去求助或求医。

就这样，我们成功的坐上飞机啦！真是一个惊险万分的开始... 因为除了差点上不了飞机，我们还差点要在机场加买 baggage 啊！太久没有飞亚航的我，竟然只买了15kg 的baggage，当下真的好想呼自己巴掌。后来，在机场把脚架、书、手帐、笔盒和两件裤子拿出来才成功把行李的重量降低至14.9kg。真是狼狈死了！然后，你以为这样就顺顺利利了？并没有好吗！在距离上飞机只剩下最后15分钟的时间，小胖爸突然发现小胖的臭臭兔不 见 了！！怎么办？

【Langkawi • 美食】Hidden Beach House @ Langkawi - 浪漫夕阳晚餐 拍照打卡满分

说了好多年的birthday trip 终于今年实现了！暌违5年，再次踏足这个海岛 -- Langkawi 实在是让我彻彻底底的爱上它了！有太多值得分享的点，第一个当然要选整个trip最喜欢的一个行程 -- 在 Hidden Beach House 的生日晚餐！

以tiffany blue 和白色为主的 Hidden Beach House 是我在IG 发现的好地方。整间屋子都是木质感，就如它的名字一样，是一间隐藏的沙滩屋。这里完全就是为浪漫夕阳晚餐而打造的餐厅，加上整体美美好看的设计，要拍照装逼打卡更是值满分啊！

食物是以西餐为主；我的生日晚餐，吃的是豪迈的披萨汉堡配啤酒！还有给身体来点fiber的salad！

【漫游 • 兰卡威】 Langkawi 有什么好玩？

最近因为肥妹和朋友订了 Langkawi 的飞机票而问起那里有什么好玩的，因为他们要去个5天4夜！是的！5天4夜没错！虽然 Langkawi 确实是个天堂，但5天4夜也未免太长了~ 于是我们开始研究，5天4夜的行程到底可以做些什么...

Eagle Square 巨鹰广场

来到Langkawi，当然不可以错过这里著名的地标 -- Eagle Square 巨鹰广场！这里是Langkawi打卡必到之处哦！

酒鬼的天堂

Langkawi也是酒鬼的天堂；一瓶Budweiser才 RM4（这是2014年的价钱）啊！
