I just got back from Penang! hehe It was really awesome. At least a holiday for me before I head for the busy holidays. We stayed at the Bayview Hotel in the centre of Georgetown. On the first day, we went to Batu Feringgi beach only since the long journey from Kuala Lumpur to Penang was extremely tiring.
First Day
My mom and me
My sister trying to avoid the water
I was finding for baby crabs but too bad, can't find any. haha
We had dinner in a food court. I tell you, FOOD IN PENANG WAS SO CHEAP and it was not even a problem to find them along the road!!! But I think I ordered too much for dinner. LOL
Second Day
My dad's car broke down so he brought it to the nearby workshop. So unlucky! My mom, sis and I had to visit places within walking distance from the hotel like the Penang Museum, Penang Peranakan Mansion and the church.
The shell park opposite my hotel.
My mom and sis
We went to the Penang Museum first. It was kind of interesting and shockingly huge in the inside! haha Then, we walked to the Penang Peranakan Mansion. This mansion actually cost RM26 000 000.00.
Outside the mansion
Look at the cute little girl who slotted in between my mom and sis.. hehe
The VIP dinning room
My first time looking at the Chinese altar in a temple. haha Like the one in those Chinese drama! The 1st generation to the current one...
Those carvings and designs on the temple were actually quite fascinating!
O.O this one! This English dinning room was for the Chinese people. The owner of this place wanted Chinese people to try English delicacy.
While this Chinese dinning room was for the English guest. LOL the English guest will try Chinese delicacies.
O.O THE KISSING CHAIR..actually its called the Love Chair! The couple in our tour group actually sat on that chair and kissed. I SHOULD HAVE TAKEN A PHOTO OF THEM! haha
This picture looked scary! haha SO RED!
haha According to the tour guide, this was an ARGUE BED! I was like what?? He told me why was it named like that. Look at this picture... the two single beds can be separated easily so if the couple happens to have a misunderstanding, they will separate the beds! LOL
The car was ready by 3.30 pm so we went to Penang Hill!
My sis. mom and dad
We bought train tickets before we went up the hill. The funicular train was so stuffy and packed! Gosh...worse than Putra LRT.
When we reached the tunnel...
I love this shot!
Ya, it was raining that time. So all umbrellas up!
It felt like Cameron Highlands as it was foggy.
We went up until the maximum and suddenly, I saw an aviary. My dad was reluctant to enter that aviary because he thought it was going to be a waste of money but everyone wanted to enter, so he just tagged along. We were actually the last customers of the day and we were all given children price! How cool is that!!!
Hornbills
The nice Peacock...
O.O One of my favourites! The Red Macaw... It actually said Hello.
Another parrot
I LOVE THIS ONE THE MOST! It posed for my picture.. so cute! This fella can really talk man more than that red macaw.
Ooo the white cockatoo which bit my dad's umbrella. LOL
This bird scares me!
O.O the couple! I love these parrots...
It was not a waste of money because those birds were very rare! I wanted to stay longer but it was getting late. Too bad TT
Third Day
We took a few pictures after we checked out from the hotel.
The Clock Tower
We went around the roundabout just to get this shot! LOL
A family shot without me (The photographer) hehe
In the car, got bored... I saw an island! LOL Crazy already
The Penang Bridge....
Overall, it was a relaxing vacation for me since I needed it a lot! haha Btw,I just realise something... Penang got more tourists than Malacca! Seriously... I think its because of the food!!! HAHAHA
