Oh Penang! :D

Yeah bout the post i promised you guys earlier- My trip to Penang. (cannot be lazy anymore :P)

*********************************************

So Friday noon after class we went to Penang by bus. Actually i organised this trip, i mean i started this idea. And there were four of us that went there, Me, Shi Hao, Ernest and Wilson. (we're staying at Wilson's house :D) the bus departed on 4pm and we reached Penang at around 9pm.

on Penang Bridge. Can see the city lights ady :D

Wilson's dad came to fetch us and went for food hunting. We already had so much food on the first night HAHA like curry mee, hokkien ha mee, assam laksa, char kueh gan and char kueh tiao. :D (and also want to thank Wilson's dad for being so generous to treat us EVERY meal we had there, at first i still thought he's only paying for our meal on the first night but who knows turns out he paid for us for the whole trip. I'm so grateful, really. :)

Then back at his apartment at Batu Ferringhi(his second house), the three of us, me, ernest and shi hao slept in a room. haha the first night the air cond was not functioning so we had to sleep without fan or air cond but what to whine, it's very good already there's a bed for us to sleep on hehe

The next day we went to visit a lot of places eg. heritage park, the beach (woots), and a lot a lot of temples like kek lok si. and what more to say, we had a lot of food as well! hiak! let the photos do the talking :) (i still can't forget the NICE chendul we had, indeed THE BEST)

haha guess what when i first see this sign from afar the first thing that popped up in my mind is "birds you're not allowed to eat the food" XDDDD

That night we didn't went out for dinner because wilson's relatives came and we had our own BBQ at his house on the balcony haha felt so paiseh 'cause basically we're just waiting for the food coz they did all the BBQ thing and we were like sitting there and just wait for the food to be ready :P

The next morning we went for our breakfast, and the nyonya laksa there was so nice, really :D then we went to a botanical garden and saw many lao kao's xD and then not forgetting the famous assam laksa at ayer itam :D

So after that we have to say bye bye to Penang. Wilson's dad fetched us to the bus terminal and we boarded the bus after saying thank you to him. Really grateful that he's willing to spend his weekend and bring us on a 'tour' around Penang :D (.. still i'm grateful haha) The bus departed at 1pm and reached KL at around 5.30pm (lol 30 mins faster)
