I'm BACK!

Haha im back!!!!


My trip to Penang was awesome. Quite fun and adventurous. Haha simply exceed any expectation and even more of the unexpected.


This trip was pretty much UN-conventional. NOthing goes according to plan. Snoopy's list of itinerary we pretty much jumbled up and we follow instinct instead. Snoopy's itinerary was specific right from day one to the last day but alas, we human can only plan, but God who decide.


So happened we went to Penang during the Ninth Month of Chinese Lunar Calendar. This is the time where most Buddhist celebrate the Nine God Festival and be vegetarian for nine days. Nine God Festival also symbolize raining (because most of the time it surely rain during this time of the year) And, rain it does.


Although this trip doesn't go according to plan, and the weather was cooling (contrary to Penang hot weather), the road was wet and slippery, but still, i enjoyed every minute of it. Also most of the time it rained and we have to carry umbrellas, but we can still be happy and cheerful despite the sombre weather.

I truly believes that traveling needs good companion. It doesn't matter where we go, so long we go with the right group of people then the atmosphere will be a whole of difference. I'm so glad that i went with Rae, Roy, Win, Bro and of course Snoopy the tour guide. Haha and we do have an excellent tour guide for food! Historical wise....erm Snoopy still needs some polishing hahaha!


One thing that will never fail is F.O.O.D.


We eat like nobody's business and we keep eating for the whole trip. Now that i'm back, i dare not weigh myself. I don't want to know the truth that i've gain weight


Roy's objective is met: eat a lot a lot of delicious local cuisines (pass with flying colours because exceed his expectation. He is amazed that Penang actually have that many places to eat til you drop)

Rae's objective is NOT met: to visit many historical sites and tourist attraction places (failed due to the constant rain and short visiting time) Plus, to eat the best Hokkien Mee of the Hokkien Mee (because that particular shop/stall was closed when we went there)



Haha this sounds like we need another trip down to Penang soon!! Yay!!!! Hehehe....


I will upload the photos as soon as i've got the complete set of photos from everyone...
