Innersearch Asian Odyssey 2008 Retrospective

18 January 2008: We depart Cambodia in the morning and head to Kuala Lumpur for a few hours before our flight to Langkawi island.

Devotees in Kuala Lumpur planned a sweet picnic lunch for the group and greet us with the warmest of welcomes.

They hand out packed lunches that are absolutely delicious.

Thank you all so much for your support and for making us feel so welcome in KL!

Innersearchers all sit along this walkway in this garden and partake of their wonderful Malaysian meal.

We head to the aiport a few hours later to catch our flight to Langkawi and discover that our flight is a couple of hours late. Our bags all neatly lined up in front the check in counter

A very patient group to say the least.

We all find spots to sit around and get to know one another.

And some take time to study or go within in a noisy crowded airport.

Finally we arrive in Langkawi island.

Rhonda and Trevor McPhee are there to greet us. This Australian couple have been living in Langkawi for many years and helped us to organise our excursions and meals on this island. Many thanks to them for making it all possible.

January 19, Langkawi: We begin our first series of classes on Shum with Bodhinatha.

Langkawi is lush and green.

In the evening we head down to Pantai Cenang to watch the sunset and have dinner by the beach.
