またもや！？トライアスロンレースに行ってきた。今回はマレーシアのランカウイ島。
Yet again I ran a triathlon race. This time it was in Langkawi, Malaysia.

マレーシアは、マレー系、インド系、中華系等々、様々な人が暮らす多民族国家で、色々な国の文化を一度に体験できるのが魅力だ。
Malaysia is a multiracial country. People with Malaysian, Indian, or Chinese, other heritage live together in the country respecting each other. It is an attractive feature of Malaysia as a tourist destination. This allows you to experience several cultures at once all in the same place.

物価が比較的安いのもありがたい。ホテル近くのカレー屋さん（ナシ・カンダ―レストラン）で頼んだタンドリーチキンは日本円で約120円、ガーリックナンプレートに至ってはおよそ60円と破格の安さ！！しかも、すっごくうまい！！！
Its low prices is also good point for tourists.
When I went to Indian restaurant near my hotel, I ordered Tandoori Chicken and it cost only 120yen. Furthermore, the Garlic Naan Plate was only 60yen!
It not only was very reasonable, but also they were very tasty!!

かなりスパイシーなので、カレーソースを使い切らず、ついついナンを食べきってしまったので、ナンのみ追加注文…したつもりだったが、指定したメニューも実はセットプレートだった（そもそも見ていたページが全てセットメニュー）らしく、もうワンセットナンカレーのプレートが運ばれてきた。。
まーこんなのも旅の楽しみ。日本人の「もったいない」根性を発揮して、残さずきれいに平らげてきた。
The curry was so spicy that I had eaten all the naan bread yet a lot of curry still remained. To eat the remaining curry I planned to order an additional naan bread, but I made a mistake. The menu I ordered from was a set menu! Thus I had to eat another naan bread with one and half plates of curry!
Though, I ate them all with Japanese spirit “MOTTAINAI”. It is sometimes taken as impolite in Japan when you leave your meal half eaten.

やっぱり南の島最高！
Touring Malaysia was wonderful experience!!
