All sorts of photo opps at Panorama Langkawi

a world-class tourist destination in a 450-550 million year old forest of biodiversity, 700 meters up in the air by cable car.

Everyone in the world uses iPads

Some are quite unique

 Some are just plain cute

Here is a great family

Here are the Americans

and here is a story of how old the Machinghang Mountain Range is, with the photographer in the picture

And Rowan bangs the gong!

at the Sheraton Langkawi, where we spent a serene afternoon by the fountains, the pool, and a very gentle part of the ocean, absorbing negative ions and relaxing.

How about that welcome?

at the Red Sky restaurant near Cenang Beach in Langkawi and next to our favorite Red Tomato Restaurant.

A cat named Cat, who owns both places!

Birding with Tommy Toucan in Langkawi, Malaysia!

Here on the grounds of the Westin, which we visited, live a group of wild toucans.

First look to the left of and up from the coconuts on the palm tree, where there are two birdies:

Then you can see a "close-up" of Tommy at ASA 6400:

And then he flies away!

Lunch at the Red Tomato, Langkawi, Malaysia

with tuna caesar salad (thankfully, the food here is safe!) and the book of Morning Pages that Shirl is writing in each day as part of studying The Artist's Way, by Julia Cameron.  And requisite at least two glasses of ice water and purple covered iPod!
