At last! Peter was able to break away for some much needed vacation. After trying to book numerous locations and being unable due to security risks or attacks (seriously) we set out for Langkawi, Malaysia.
A relatively short 6 hours away from Shanghai felt like a million miles. We arrived to find a jungle of lush, green trees and plants and tons of clean, clear water. The weather was in the 90s and very, very humid.
It was wonderful to eat all of the fresh fruit and food, drink the water and not be concerned about the safety of doing so. Tyler LOVED the water and could be found playing in it or drink it all the time. I am certain he enjoyed not hearing Peter and I gasp and redirect his attention when he tried to drink pool or bath water. There was no random green or brown "stuff" to be found in the water. Ty even took a few swigs of the sea water, although I think he was not to found of it. He quickly learned how to spit streams of water as well as blow bubbles. We will definitely be enrolling him in swim lessons as soon as we return to the US.
We had a few days of great wind so Peter took out a Hobie twice
Ty is definitely proved that he is related to me, my little man is a water baby! I could not be happier!
Peter and I ditched Ty with a babysitter a few times and enjoyed some kid less moments at the spa as well as a romantic tent dinner on the beach. We timed it just as the sun was setting. Peter's favorite time of day. There were slight sprinkles which cooled the air a bit to make it a perfect night. Peter said many times that Langkawi "Rejuvenated my soul."
