Percutian: Memenatkan + Menyeronokkan = Pengalaman Part 3

26 november 2009, The next day, I woke up early in the morning and went to the nearest stall to have our breakfast. Because of my curry madness haha.. I ordered Roti Telur but my madness dissapeared because the curry wasn’t umph like the one I had yesterday. Still, it is delicious huhu (dissapointed). After I had a displeased breakfast huhu.. I packed up my bags cause we had to check out from the apartment before 11.00am. Now you know, why we were rushed to travel around Penang. We check out from the apartment and had our lunch at stall near the beach. The beach was so clean and I can’t see a single rubbish around it. The sand was white and the sea was crystal clear.

Nice right huhu...

We ate Laksa Penang and Nasi Ayam there. The dishes was so delicious, patut la orang kata Penang merupakan salah satu syurga makanan huhu.. After makan haha.. we went to Masjid Terapung Tanjung Bungah, Penang. We had our Zuhr and Asar(Jamak & Qasr). Inside the mosque I was excited by the Fan design haha... The Fan was so unique and it looks like a helicopter fan huhu.. Forgot to take some photo inside the mosque (too bad).

Masjid Terapung Tanjung Bungah

We continue our way to Komtar to buy some souveniers for our relatives. Penang is well-known for their Buah Pala and pickles. We went around and around and around the komtar and did not even found any shop selling it but at the end we found it at Jalan Penang. Before i proceed, i would like to say sorry to local penang citizen for contempting. Based on my 2 days trip, one thing I dislike about Penang is their Signboard which is confusing, the MPPPP should take quick action to fix the problem. This time, I choose to cross the penang by means of ferry rather than using the penang bridge. Just wanted to try something new hehe... It took us one and a half hour to get on the ferry, The place was congested because at that hour people have just return back from work. The view from the ferry was nice and the sea breeze blowing from many direction and makes me feel calmly, our patience was worthwhile. 

 Going into the ferry woohooo...

 Inside the ferry huhu.. (excited)

 Look another ferry besides us haha..

 Bye2 Penang, we will meet again

 Brothers and sisters

 At last, safely arrived at the jetty

Next stop, Perak huhu.. we celebrate our Aidiladha with our relatives at kampung. Anyway Salam Aidiladha for all Muslimin and Muslimah around the world :D

Percutian: Memenatkan + Menyeronokkan = Pengalaman Part 2

25 November 2009, We started our journey with a great breakfast. I ordered Roti Canai Telur + Milo Ais Slrrrpp... Once I dip the Roti Telur in the curry and put it in my mouth I feel a ‘wow’ effect by the curry wakaka what kind of impression is this haha.. The curry was so delicious and it is different than the usual curry. They used their own mixed curry. It is so delicious, I had 2 pieces of Roti Telur because of the Curry XD wakaka(So greedy or what). Anyone who wants to try the taste of  real curry, come to Penang and try it (Promote :P ).

Nalla(tasty) punya curry wakaka...

After finished breakfast we went to the Mosque(forgot the name). The mosque was so clean and beautiful. There were trees and flowers around the Mosque. My Parent had solat Dhuha in the mosque. Silly me, don’t want to solat and went to took some photos  huhu.. (Solat Dhuha is sunat, so it is not a must).

Some angle of the mosque

After prayer, we continue our journey to Penang Hill. Penang Hil (Bukit Bendera) is one of the most popular destinations in Penang. Penang Hill is actually a complex of hills and spurs and the highest point is Western Hill which is 830 meters (2730ft) above sea level. Apart from the cool climate and the fantastic panoramic view of George Town, Tanjung Bungah and the mainland from the summit, you can also enjoy the picturesque colonial bungalows, a beautiful flower garden and a bird sanctuary. Some of the flora and fauna of Penang Hill are considered as endemic species, and are so rare that their existence is endangered. (credited to Travel Malaysia Guide)  

Finally arrived at Penang Hill huhu..

 

There are 2 ways to climb up the Penang Hill, you can hike the hill or use the funicular train. I chose to use the funicular train. It cost RM 4.00 for pergi dan balik. The scenery from the funicular train was amazing. All the trees and flowers gave us a unique environment.

Waiting for the funicular train

View from the above

Green trees but no flowers( the flowers photo was blur so no need to upload la huaaa..)

The Driver (eating biskut tiger while driving)

Look, another train is passing by :D

After we arrived at the last station of the train, We walk and encountered a stall selling Laksa Penang. We had another breakfast meal wakaka.. Just wanted to try the taste of Laksa Penang. After a spoon of Laksa Penang, And again got the ‘wow’ effect because of the ummph gravy (Sadly, no pic for Laksa Penang). I don’t know how to describe the taste, maybe you have to taste it  yourself and judge it huhu.. Another silly thing that I had done is ordered an ABC Special (this one got picture haha) wakaka.. Am I nuts or what.? ordered an ABC Special at the top of the hill that have a cool environment. ABC is one of the famous food in Penang (I think la). Because many of the stall are selling it. My ABC Special was so special and taller than the usual ABC haha.. So many sweet ingredients inside the ABC Special huhu, Luv it.

After a troll around the hill we went down the Penang Hill and continued our way to our Apartment that we rent. We have to check in at 2 pm, so from the Penang Hill we rushed to Batu Feringghi. We stayed in Bayu Mas Apartment near the new Hard Rock Hotel ,Penang. We arrived at the Apartment and had some rest and solat before continuing our journey wakaka... After having some rest, we had lunch at Nasi Kandar huhu.. (tak sabaq tau). We had Kari Kepala Ikan Patin and other dishes huhu.. the curry was excellent, two thumbs from me :D. Now next stop was Butterfly Farm XD. There were many type of butterfly there. At first, I was totally amazed by the colourful butterfly flying around freely but when I went deeper inside, I fellt irritated when a lots of butterflies approached me... The butterfly was so tame and like to perch anybody near them.  Its’s a good chance for  photographers to try their skill to shoot a photo of the butterfly. In the Butterfly Farm, they also have other insects like Praying Mantis, Beetle, Gecko, Turtle Aligator,etc.

The caterpillars (goli den wakaka)

A swarm of butterflies, beauty isn't it

A closer look huhu ( you know what was happen right haha)

This is turtle alligator, can snap a finger and don't you ever think to get it back haha

My lil' sis huhu.. The butterfly think the tudung is a flower(I guess)

After a tired walk around the Butterfly farm, we went back to our apartment and rest. I’m also tired typing this thing haha.. So I skip the night story cause at night we just had a dinner with Penang special food huhu..

24 November 2009, I will step in my foot on the Pulau Mutiara which is famous with their Nasi Kandar. Our journey took.. erm... Could not remember the timeline but it is fun. From Kuala Lumpur we stop at Perak, where my relatives are staying. We arrive at Bota, Perak in the evening and had some rest at my kampung. But we rested for a short time. We headed our way to Penang  at 2.30am and arrive early in the morning. We had our subuh prayers and my vacations started.
