Our most memorable place, hard to choose, each one is special

but we had a romantic walk in Penang Hill and spend quite a long time there, we enjoyed the weather and thus

we crown it our most memorable place

s

Thank you Jetstar,

we love Penang and of course we love Jetstar

now onto our budget

we calculated our spendings and wrote it down on Hotel paper

so here is the breakdown

Ice age 3D movie = Rm 30
Dinner at Gurney drive = Rm 24
Brunch at Kapitan, Little India = RM 18.70
Khoo Kongsi entrance fee = RM 10
Penang Hill Funicular train = Rm 8
Dinner at Komtar area = RM 20.5
Bus rides =Rm 11
Durian feast =RM 20
Water from 7-11 = Rm 2.50

total = RM 144.7

of course our donations to some temples are not included.

but we made it within the budget!!! with 50 cents left!!!

we changed at 2.42 so 60×2.42 = 145.2

and do so much things!!

Onto the itenary,

all the things we stated in the itenary post,

all of it was fulfilled except for Batu Ferringhi beach. We decided to skip the beach because a beach will be a beach and there will be nothing so special about it. Of course the huge nightmarket in Batu Ferringhi is very famous, but many penang people we met said that place is mainly catered for tourists. in fact a similar market, albeit at smaller scale is quite nearby our hotel is called Thailand market by locals, which from the name can be implied that it sells thailand goods. However, these market are nowhere near the quality of JJ market or more commonly known as Chatuchak market.

but in return, we visited Khoo Kongsi, and the Goddess of Mercy temple and walked round Little India.

I feel its better to know a little more about Chinese heritage in Penang than go shopping, plus there will be nothing we wanna buy cos we are travelling light!

anyway I am missing Penang already

and PS: there is no part 8, even though I said I was going to do 8 parts.
I feel its gonna be too long, so yeah dont look out for 8 parts, Only 7

and its ending here :(

Hope you all enjoy it, any qns pls feel free to ask

now I am back to writing my thesis

and start researching on Hongkong!!

well one last pic, this one is of uS in Kek Lok Si, the grandest temple in all of malaysia, or maybe south east asia?

jetSTar (but no) jump!
:P

ok thanks for reading it will definitely end here. dont wait for part 8
