After a good sleep at Hotel Samila and I was set to move on. It was raining in the morning I had to wait for the rain to stop before I could look for a place to have my breakfast. |
The oldest Tua Pek Kong Temple in Alor Setar located at Jalan Tunku Yaacob. |
Zahir Mosque is one of the most beautiful mosques in Malaysia. |
Trying out Alor Setar's prawn noodle, it tasted good I quite enjoyed it. The sky was still drizzling but not heavy I decided to move on. |
Paddy Museum was my next destination where I headed north towards Gunung Keriang direction. |
This coastal access is narrow, long and straight with hardly any cars on it. On the sides are mostly padi fields and a few prawn farms besides the sea view. |
The access can be sometime as bad as this but only at a short stretch. The tranquility of such path is lovely to ride on especially along the "tepi laut" |
It was low tide when I was riding along this stretch. |
The seaside road at Kampung Ayer Hitam is interesting and unique. A house address of this locality. |
One of the prawn feeding farms at Ayer Hitam, Kedah. |
A small and narrow estuary at Ayer Hitam with some boats tucking at the nipah trees. |
Cutting through the padi fields where I got to see harvesting of paddy and the friendly folks of Kedah. |
Sometimes I encounter friendly cows blocking the way as I slowly move closer to them and seek permission to pass them. |
A good crowd seems to be coming in for lunch at this warong Restoran Seri Tanjung, Kuala Sanglang. For your information this place is quite near to the territory of Perlis. |
The surrounding of Restoran Seri Tanjung with lovely scene where you can see fishing boats moving up and down the river. |
Drying of fishes for dried salted fish at the neighbourhood. |
Immediately after Kuala Sanglang the scenery continues with the rock bund coastline and it is all the way to Kuala Perlis. |
The condition of the road R152 gets better as I rode towards Kuala Perlis with cleaner and more landscape along the way. |
Arriving at a warong at the border between Kedah and Perlis with both the two states flag flying high and majestically. |
My simple Malay food with curry fish and plain rice. |
This river mouth at Simpang Ampat is so dense with fishing boats and there are houses built at the edges of the river. |
A wet arrival at Kuala Perlis. It has a jetty and it is popular with among tourists visiting Langkawi island. |
I took a few photographs of the floating Al Hussian Mosque next the Kuala Perlis Jetty and out into the sea is the Straits of Malacca. |
Visiting Abdul Rahim Abdul Kadir was in my visit old friends list in Kangar, I managed to find his house at Kampung Bakong, Kangar after another 16km from Kuala Perlis. |
I decided to check into Soo Guan Villa at Jalan Jejawi Permatang for the night and going to Arau on following day would be much easier. |
I enjoyed this combination, this fried chicken with lemon grass was so yummy even the fried lemon grass went well with the beer. |
I enjoyed the beautiful ride along the seasides of Kedah and Perlis on Day 10. |
