PENANG I'M IN LOVE ( part ii )


assalamualaikum and hallo peopleeee....

last post i've talked about the town georgetown.

i'm in love with the buildingssss, the people., the street food.

 then the evening after zohor prayer, me and Bahtina went to Batu Ferringhi(BF)

i sure you the journey to BF BY CAT bus was the longest in my life ever.
with the snake like road.
but we enjoyed the scenery of beach by the road.
those signature view .

really cool
on the bus actually we didn't know the exact place to stop the bus .
so i asked this sweet high school girl.
she stop the bus for us in front of our budget hotel.
surely the hotel is not really cool from the outside but reallly beautiful inside.
with the open rooftop where we enjoyed our breakfast in the next day.

we asked for 3 person room and the beds were super cool.
the picture below was our room.

together with a TV and little snack.
the tv full with blockbusters movie.

when we arrived there, Bahtina and yana can't help themselve from fall to sleep.

i can't sleep. cannot.
why we must sleep when our true intention there was to travel and sight seeing?
hahahhaa

after take the bath ( the bathroom is super coooollll . simple but elegant, didn't get the time to snap the picture :( )
i strolled by the beach. looked what peoole were doing.
compare the prices of the waterspodt there.
my true intention was to try PARASAILING!
the price was around 50-60MYR PER PERSON.


feeling like meditation with the beach cap in the room...LOL

i cannot move on with the beauty of the interior design of the room.
i stayed at the roomies .. in cinema room.(150 per night) sharing with my two friends.



the view in the evening during the walk.




at night we just walked to the night market by the beach.
some said it is happening during night.

1/2 happening for me and that night was raining and the nasi lemak that we wanted to buy closed so early.:(
ended up eating burger...:3



on the next morning, after shower and all, done our prayer, we went to the beach again...
MAK AIII, soo many alcohol bottles everywhere.

we found one brother ni, offer us with parasaiiling which we found the rate is the lowest la from the others,
and the distance they offer also the longest which was 1km i guess.
only me and Bahtina ride the thing.
we ride it ALONE  okay!
no tandem...
we felt like our heart wanted to fall off when we were taken by the boat and up the sea like sooooooooo highhhh,,,
then came all those killer story about the parasailing.
i just can't stop say the prayers...>.<







after that thing, we packed our bag, and eat some breakfast that the hotel provided.
we met a handsome mat salleh guy..>.<
so tall weh. 
and we also met an Austria girl. travelling alone.
they stayed at the same hotel.

after check out, went to ESCAPE. but we went there after the GST implemented so the price was so gila high and we need to spend like 5 hour.
we were running out of time to catch the bus to go back home lagi.
we canceled the games..:(
feel bad but at least we had been there.. at  the gate..>.<

then we go back to the town and look for Jeruk at Chowrasta. the biggest jeruk stall.
also before depart back, we went to eat some ABC and mee udang..

feel bad that i don't have time to go to Tanjung Bungah... but there are still have next time..

so that's the wrap.
hope enjoy reading.:D

PENANG, I'M IN LOVE ( part 1)

assalamualaikum . 
breathe in ,,, breathe out....

i have been planning to go to penang a long time a go.
i don't know why i'm sooo interested in penang.

the buildings maybe.
and yea, after i went there, i am more in love with it.

the heritage, the people, the food, the public transport.
everything is good for me.:D

i went there from TBS and arrive at butterworth.
the butterworth bus station near to ferry station where you need the ferry to go to georgetown if you don't want to go there by car
it's so convenient.

 it is my first time stepping my feet there, so i asked a lot of Questions to people.

and Alhamdulillah. the people are so friendly. the aunties.

 the were when we really don't know the street , the aunt just hear a little of our conversation then she interrupted to show us the road.
without we asked .
we met other tourist who asked us to take her photo.
i lost my phone! and i found it back.(fiuhhhhh)
there were lots of memories there.
 once arrived at the jetty at gorgetown , we took rapid penang. CAT rapid penang is free. we arrived at 6 am. we decide to go to the mosque to perform solat.

we went to Masjid Kapitan Keling. 
the signature Mosque there.
we ate Nasi Kandar beside the mosque.
ok la. just tinggal the leftover   of last night. 
we waited till sun rise then we just walk around the Masjid. 
the Masjid can be the landmark if you want to search for mural paintings. 

the murals located far from each other, to walk to each of them is really not a wise idea.
so as we walked , we saw a shop that rent the bicycle. so we rented it.

we kindda lucky because we nee to pay rm8 from 8am to 3pm.
the other shop is like kindda higher in price.
the shop taker will give you the map where the mural located.

just follow the map..:)

it is a new way of travelling weh.
by bicycle in a town where the bus is so vigorously on road? 
why not.:)

one thing that i don't really like is the honking of cars and busses.


 those 'mata sembap' on the ferry and the joy of having nasi kandar pagi-pagi buta...>.<
 the ancient looking street . the heritage seriously we need to make it last..

 my partner in crime ; Bahtina.
like seriously we did a crazy thing. just the day we did the vacay, couple of days after that will be the exam.
the bicycle we took, so cute with the basket in front. the shopper also gave advices to us about the thieves, so she secured our bag with the key.







 the camera museum i suggested to those who really love to know the history of cameras, rm 10 per person.

 by walking or bicycle is the only wise transport for you to hunt the mural paintings.
i really cut down the money on food ;  we eat only the rojak and cendol.
the best cendol and rojak ever!
no doubt.
i'm not a cendol lover but when i tasted it, the coldness of the cendol melts my heart.
:D

we only eat a proper food when we reach Batu Ferringhi.
later with the Batu Ferringhi because there is a lot awesomeness for watersport lovers.

till then , byenye...
