Penang Trip!! =)

haha...been delaying my update on my malaysia trip!! haha...dunno wat im busy wif,mayb juz plain lazy =P hehe...anyway, gotta record wat i had done in malaysia!! next time if any of u wan go, can always see if my itinerary fits ur holiday plan =)

Penang Day 1

Was super excited about the trip with deardear and my mum!! we took AirAsia airline at Terminal 1, my very frist maiden flight experience!! was definitely super exciting for me, but i think im not reali used to my ear keep blocking and popping every 5mins or so...sounds exaggerating, but is true!! haha...took a few pictures and video on the plane.


the clouds was so fluffy and nice!! like big lumps of cotton wools hanging in the sky =) the plane lasted for 1hr 15mins, was pretty fast and there we are! Penang!! took a taxi to our hotel, Sunway Georgetown, which is very near Komtar. had to take 2 taxi cuz there are 5 of us and the taxi dun allow 5. so a total of RM76 for both taxi were paid at a counter before we board the taxi and head for our hotel. this system does help prevent the taxi drivers frm slashing unreasonable prices at tourists =)

when we reach our hotel,it was already afternoon around 12plus 1pm, the checking in to our hotel time was around 2pm, but when i went to the reception, was abit worried cuz the staff was telling me i got only 1 room under my name, when i had reserved 2. in the end they manage to get 2 rooms for me,everything was settled by 2pm or so after our lunch.

went out for lunch at the hawker centre juz below our hotel. tried the 3 layers milk tea!! saw it on tv last time, but the show was showing real big jugs but the one i took was juz a small cup..tasted nice! best is the char kuay teow!! know penang is famous for a few delicacies, so tried them out immediately =P


got into our rooms and rested for awhile. took some pictures of the room too! was quite a reasonable size for 2 and my mama got a room with her fren and my aunt, 3 persons sharing a room of 2 with an additional bed =)
views from our room...
it was already evening by the time we were back in our hotel rooms. we went to Gamma shopping centre to get some daily necesities as we din bring any with us cuz of the regulations of not allowed to bring liquid up the plane,so we decided to purchase them at malaysia itself..cheap cheap =P oso went to Komtar shopping centre and Prangin Mall. din reali do much shopping there cuz the stuff was not exactly cheap, only nearly bought a pair of sandals, but in the end decided not to. (dun ask me why =P) went back hotel to have our bath and head for our dinner at the seafood restaurant juz opp to the hotel! like the location of the hotel so much! everything within a throw stone distance away! =P


walked around the area around our hotel after dinner with deardear when mama n aunt wanna go back to rest in the hotel. many of the shops were already closed. initially wanted to walk to Penang bridge but realised it was pretty far from where we were. so we walked around the streets, and saw the new shopping mall, Penanag Time Square! we went in but all the shops are still on lease, so we just randomly took some photos and went back hotel to rest for the 2nd day to Batu Ferringhi!!! =)
