Penang!

Like sooooo long ago i've ever step foot on the grounds of George Town. Like 11 years ago? where I was only primary 5 and the journey that took 7 damn long hours with daddy's old car then..

Like I was ditched for 4 (FOUR) times with the family's holiday: Hanoi, Krabi, Cameron Highlands and Kuala Selangor... ok la, 3 times cos i dint wanna join the boring kuala selangor and choosed boyfriend instead :P

Anyway.. it happen when Daddy said he still have like 7 days of annual leave uncleared and asked for my suggestion. And I said Penang, cos we dint go there like so long ago and I also misses Fish, who went back there for 5 months ady. Yup, thats how long we dint see each other :(

Coincidently I got 4 days off, so we decided to go for a 3 days 2 nights trip.

First, a stop at Ipoh town for the famous Ipoh Taugeh Chicken Rice for lunch. YUMM!





We decided to eat in this shop, cos it's famous and there were so many people eating that we have to wait at other people's table for them to finish and leave. But looking at the crowd, its worth the wait compared to other empty shops. :) thats how Malaysian thinks, the more people in that shop surely there's something there better than the other shops. :P


see, they even have that sign saying their shop is the famous one. haha. -______-


And look at that amount of bowls!!



Our lunch, with some noodle to match. Taugeh (bean sprouts) and White chicken in delicious sauce.
ok.. its just some soy sauce with sesame oil. or some combination like that.. but its delicious!



We are very the hungry!




See.. empty liow..

Then continue our journey to the north...





Passing the Penang Bridge, which is under some renovation...

Checked into the hotel, and rest up.




Night.

Meet up with Fish... and Mark [her best friend and soon to be distanced cousin ;) ]

Brought me to this bar in Batu Feringhi where we sit on the chairs on the sandy beaches and have beer...







Fish, me and our beer



with Mark, who's trying to act cool




Then I ordered a shisha.. like so long we dint have 1 (I remember college weekend times we will go NZ mamak for RM10 shisha)




And we chat till morning.. how terrible 2 girls and a guy can finish up 2 buckets AND another jug of beer. Haha...





Its fun sitting there burying our naked feet into the cool sand and chat with the background of the waves... hmmm.. :)




ME taking picture with Mark.





Me TIPSY taking picture with mark. -______-
