outings at Penang

nothing really much happening with my holiday at Penang

My friend suggested we go dine at T-Bowl at Queensbay. A restaurant with the theme of toilet =.=
Not quite a pleasing theme huh? For me i still okay with it. I have to eat things in toilet bowl ....

They have toilet bowl ready for customer to sit on it and eat their foods. The table are ordinary glass table with basin below. Sadly i forget to take so much picture of that store. Just manage to snap few for my own memory :)

( This is one of the toilet design near the cashier. Look pretty cute )



and yes, my friend ordered a "sh*t" as desert. It is added with kiwi @@


That is about all for T-bowl experienced. So far i have watch "A Nightmare on Elm Street" and "Prince of Persia" . Consider i have enjoyed my holiday well :)

Taiping ( holiday part II )

My Taiping trip started with traveling up to  Maxwell Hill. I have very unpleasant experience going up the hill. Stomach not really feeling well, dizzy and feeling like vomit :S

The jeep rental going up hill is RM 6 if my memory serves me right.




As from below picture. The entire road up the hill is very dangerous and small. I don't know how the driver manage to drive so fast when going up the hill. They must be experienced.


Although going up the hill makes me sick :S , but it is all worth because the view up there is superb. I can see the sea from the top of the hill. 


Other than trees, insects and cool wind, there is nothing much up the hills. Just a great place to relax your mind and free from city's busy life.


When going down the hills, again i have to suffered the movement inside the jeep. Going up and going down is suffering @@  for me 

We had a bath at nearby waterfall location. I have really forgotten the name of the place but be CAUTION : If you're enjoying the water below than other people, you might be bathing with their shampoo and soap =.=


Later that day we went to lake. I team with JiaX for ridding swan boat around the lake. It is extremely "hot" game. What i mean by hot is i sweat a lot after paddling with the jacket on. 

One boat cost RM 10



The interesting part of the trip is that, i will be having my first cave experience. We visited Gua Tempurung on the last day of our trip.



It is not really expensive as you can see from the price below. It is divided into 2 types of visit. One is dry and the other is wet. If you want to travel the whole cave, you will need to select Grand Tour which is wet. As we are not prepare for wet activity, we select package number 2 which is top of the world. Meaning we will be visit the top place inside the cave.




Here is entrance while we can still see the light from outside. I'm still amazed that my phone's camera are able to take photo in dark area. 


Following photos are from the inside of the cave



The guide says that if the light implemented inside the caves goes off. We can't see a thing as if we are closing our eyes.


( the light area are actually the top of the cave already. below are dark which is very deep inside the cave )

Inside the cave are slippery and wet. JiaX falls and injure himself there. Pretty serious @@


Next place we visit is the Kellie's Castle. For more info about the place history, please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kellie%27s_Castle


It is written on top of his castle, he is able to see his plantation and his worker.


( caught people taking some "yeng" photo on people's rooftop )


The view from the top of his castle are great. The whole plantation and forest able to view from there. If this castle are able to complete that time, it would be a great place to live in .

I guess that's about all for my holiday trip. It's been tiring yet enjoy trip. Thanks to Rathika for offering us free stay at her house. Not to forget Kelvin who drive us go here and there for the entire trip. Sayonara...taiping :D

Back to Penang ( holiday part 1 )

final exam  (checked )
I kicked start my holiday by going back to my hometown first. Pity Sheng's car because it is so heavy and pack with our stuff. Plus this time JiaX will be following me back to my house.


( the back seat of the car is fully pack with bags and computers )

 I couldn't remember much how i feel that day but i remember that i was kind of blur and i drove into KL instead of turning into Ipoh junction. So we wasted around 40 minutes to get out from Sungai Besi . As we get out from the toll, we stop at the Rest House. We had Burger King as dinner xD

The restaurant is situated on top of the highway. Few shops are integrated into the bridge.



( woopers jr .. woottt so nice :D yum yum )


we still manage to watch Thomas Cup at the stop. It is a disappointing match.


we reach Penang around 10.40 pm like that and my father fetch me at Juru's McD. Then we headed back my house to have a good night sleep  :)

My friends from Melacca arrived Penang on the following day. They called us up and we went town to meet them. The day is sunny and it is really hot out there.

( Komtar )

We met them at New World's Park and have lunch in the food court. This time, I'm not organizing a list of places to visit as Adrian girlfriend's brother will be leading the team :D  (  my job is easy.All i need to do is follow their car )
After having lunch, we went to Batu Ferringhi's beach.Nothing much i can describe about my journey up there.

( went to wrong store to buy Pisang Goreng =.= )


Following photos are taken at Hard Rock Hotel.




While waiting for dinner, someone suggested to play card for wasting time. We played Poker. The bet are Twisties =.=  . Then we try another game call "Cho Dai Ti". The one who lose will need to count their remaining cards. Based on the remaining cards, they will be hit on the finger by the winner.
( Kelvin and JiaX are so serious into it LOL )

( tang yuen as dessert for dinner.... delicious? )


Please bear with me as i didn't take much photo using my phone for the trip. I have been beaten by digital camera and also DSLR .

but to prepare for my next stop which is Taiping. I have subscribed something to used with my netbook xD



p/s: i'm sorry for abandon my baby girl at Sarawak. She's so understanding <3


 to be continue... part II
