Roadtrip to Penang and Thailand.
Hello. Its been a loooong time since I touched my blog.
Oh well, I guess I'm not gonna be so active in blogging as I'm
quite busy during the holidays...gotta help prepare for a
Christmas Party! :)
During the hols, I went to Penang and Thailand for holidays
with my mum, my bro and my mum's friend family.
On Friday, my friends dad drove his van to our house and we
spent a night at their house before we leave together the next morning.
We woke up at 5.30am the next day ( Sunday ) and we started our
journey up north using the seremban highway. It was a really long journey,
soo we brought laptops to watch a movie with my friends, Jerome and Jason.
They had a laptop too. So, Jason and my bro watched their cartoons...whereas
for me, I watched Kung Fu Hustle. Oh its been a long time since I watched
that movie! :P
The journey wasn't that long. After a 2 hours ride, we stopped at Ipoh to
have breakfast. We looked for famous coffeeshops that are famous
for their old town white coffee and Ipoh Hor Fun. We found this olld coffeeshop
that was so packed with ppl, so we decided to try it out. There were Char Koay
Teow, Hokkien Mee, and Dim Sum. After that delicicious breakfast, we finally
had a nice cup of iced white coffee. Refreshing~

At the Ferry
After a filling breakfast, we continue our journey to Penang. It was another 1
and a half hour ride, so I took a nappy nap in the van. When we reached at
Butterworth, we took a ferry across the sea to Pulau Penang instead of crossing
the bridge as it would be very jam. We reached penang at approximately 12pm.
When we arrived at the island, we went to the hotel at Batu Ferringhi to check in.



We are staying at The Bayview Hotel. We had to wait till 3 to check in and after
that. We went to my friends cousin house. I knew my friends cousin since 3
years ago so we are friends now. His name isVincent Gan and he has a lil bro,Vernon.
He lives in this huge house with a nice table tennis table. :)
I saw this on the way to vincent's house. weird!
Sooo, after we greeted each other, we went to have lunch together at a
restaurant nearby. After that, we went back to his house to play some table
tennis. We had fun together and played for almost 5 hours staright! Haha
It was really exciting though, my friend and his cousin were so pro so I paired
up with Vincent and my brother paired up with Jerome. Hehe Together, we
were unbeatable. :P



Char Koay Teow


Almond Dessert ( Almond Tong Sui )

The weird but delicious kuih
When it getting late and everyone were hungry, we drove to Kimberley Street
in penang to eat famous the famous Duck Egg Char Koay Teow and Almond
Dessert. There were all types of food there and lots of ppl too! I ate some char
koay teow and har mee. After that, we walked to the other side of the street
to have some almond dessert. Not many ppl likes it cos of its smell but I love it!
I found interesting kuih as well there, I saw this yellow colour stuff in a tupperware
with a packet of black sugar in it while I was drinking soya bean there. It was some
kind of a hokkien stuff so I tried it. It turned out to be delicious! :)

Full Jor :S
After all that eating and drinking, my stomach was too full to filll anymore, so we
headed back to hotel to rest. Vincent came over to our room to stay. We were
staying in a suite and the room was quite huge. There were 5 beds, 2 tvs, a fridge,
a big toilet and 2 rooms and a balcony with a nice view. :0
Thats it for that day!
