Penang (Feb 2015)

Assalamualaikum & hello all,

Okay this time jom kita ke Penang. I'm quite rushing to publish this post because the library gonna close soon.

I went to Penang with my matriks' bestfriend, Fifa. And we have our bodyguards with us, kawan sama matrik jugak... Haikal & Azaan. It was really a simple plan and alhamdulillah the plan menjadi very smooth. We booked AirAsia flight tickets KUL-PEN for RM78 two-ways (each person). Very cheap right compared to bus and taxi fares?

Haikal & me never been to Penang before unlike Fifa & Azaan. Thank God Fifa and Azaan made everything easier for me & of course for our trip this time. I love you both, babes.

We rode on a bus at the Penang International Airport to Komtar area since our hotel is around that area. The journey took about 30mins plus OMG we're so hungry in the bus. Menyesal pun ada sebenarnya nak jimat duit sampai menyusahkan diri. HAHA we have to stand in the bus you know...

Sampai je area Komtar, weolls terus ke Yasmin Nasi Kandaq. Lapaq woi... Puas hati dengan makanan, kitorg check in hotel comel kitorg ni. Punya la sesat, tanya 1000 orang kami ke kiri ke kanan and alhamdulillah tetiba one of us said outloud "eh, ni la hotel kita kan?" =)

Before naik ke bilik, shoes off

Tempat perjumpaan kami pagi-pagi =)

Tempat kami habiskan masa malam malam

Boleh tengok TV kat sini sebab dorm takde TV haha

Tempat fav Fifa, Azaan & Haikal. Sikit-sikit beli air, sikit-sikit beli air. hmm

Our ladies dorm (Untung rasanya sebab 2 malam tu cuma aku ngan Fifa yang stay. Rasa macam duduk 2 orang je lahhh)

Bab toilet mesti membanggakan aku. Kalau tak aku tak review. Haha

Okay la untuk sebuah dorm kan? 

Kononnya penat sangat semua, lepas dah kenyang, masuk aircond, semua tidur. Haha apakah makna holiday? Malam tu semua bangun bersiap sebab lapaq. Straight ke Padang Kota untuk Char Kuey Tiaw.

Tapi... serious kami hampa. Ini... RM8 dan tak sedap langsung

Malam yang hampa tu, kami isikan dengan round2 area Padang Kota and pukul 10 malam balik hotel. Main UNO Stacks. HAHAHA

Second day, kami bangun tanpa kehampaan. Mencari yang lebih terangkat. Roti canai Transfer Road. Fifa ni sangat brilliant orangnya, aku tanya macam mana dia tahu all those nice places and she said "Foursquare!" Tanpa berlengah aku download app tu. Betul, bagus baca review orang.

 

Kali ni tak mengecewakan. Sedap & murah.

Dah kenyang pekena roti canai, kami ke Penang Interactive Museum. Kat sini kalau tak lebih 10 keping ambil gambar memang tak syok. All the murals were very nice drawn, looked alive and I love every single picture that being displayed. Well, please scroll down and see some of our annoying pictures, 

<3

"Penat saya tarik, pakcik ni... jangan la bertongkat tangan kat situ" 

Siapa nak popcorn? Saya bagi free..... testing!

"Gagoh ali gagoh muso"

"Hold my hand please Spiderman! Let the guy fall but please take me :p"

Wait.., what happen?

I'm hungry, sorry...

Keluar dari museum tu tengok2 dah hampir waktu Zohor. The boys kalut dah nak g solat Jumaat. Aku and Fifa balik bilik konon nak kemas2 la apa yang patut sebab esok dah nak chow. Maafkan kemengantukan kami. Lulz.

After the boys siap solat Jumaat, kami singgah Nasi Kandaq Line Clear. Tak puas lagi tu semua bedal nasi kandaq. 

Next destination Penang Hill : Bukit Bendera. I love this place so much. Lawa, kemas, terancang. My friends said dulu keretapi dia kayu je, now dah upgrade macam LRT. If I'm not mistaken, students will get student price. So don't forget to bring your matric card haa? 

I believe I can fly...

The only nice picture of us. May this relationship lasts forever, amin. (Fifa ngan Azaan sangat terhibur baca ayat-ayat kat padlock tu) So kalau korang nak sedikit hiburan kat atas ni, baca la padlock tu :p

Our train approaching... It's time to go back... 

Good bye Penang. 

Penutup hari kedua, we dropped by at Batu Ferringi. Well Fifa said we could see the sunset at the beach there. Sadly... no, we didn't make it. Tahu-tahu je eh dah gelap ni jom balik. Hmm at night, kami just jalan-jalan area Komtar. Makan kfc sebelah komtar. Balik packing-packing barang & tidur.

The last day, kami jalan2 area Komtar lagi. Beli segala jeruk and souvenier sikit. Balik hotel solat, checked out, and ke stesen bas Komtar. Off to Penang International Airport. Lepak there for so many hours sebab Fifa salah interpret boarding time dengan flying time. Haha tak apelah, no regret. Arrived KLIA at 8pm and went separated ways..........................

Thanks for everything, travel-mates! Next destination pls? Hahaha
