It's been over a week since i updated my blog, din really hav the time when i was in penang, spent all my time eating, shopping n sleeping, haha. Even if I was free at nite, i'd chat with my frens, juz seems a waste to spend time blogging =p and after i came bek i nid time to finalize my work, so din blog too...

Anyway, i'll try my best to catch up on things. So first let's start with last Tuesday, where my journey began, hehe.
Went to the airport around 10am and meet up with Grace to check in together, the airport was not very crowded, we walk around a bit after we check in, and I finally see my favourite McD desert centre, currently the only one in Kuching. I was all excited when i hear about Kuching finally having a McD desert centre, coz it's the onli place u can get my favourite flavour twist (green apple, yummy~). But I was a bit shock when i see the price, the flavour twist cost RM2.8!! Har? I remember buying it for RM1.5 when i was in KK last time.... hmmmm.... (later i checked again at penang, onli cost RM1.95 at the shopping malls)

Anyway, tis is the first time i fly with MAS since i graduated, the nite before i was saying to myself, no more 737 please~ coz ever since i can remember i was always flying with 737, as i usually travel to JB and they dont use any planes other than 737 there.

This time I'm gonna transit at KLIA before flying to Penang, but honestly i wasnt giving it much hope... but when I board the plane i was like O_o

Finally I'm on an air bus!! and i completely din notice it until i step into the plane. This is really different from 737, after flying with an air bus, really feel tat 737 is... lame =p I really enjoyed the ride, hehe.

I havent been in KLIA for quite some time, i think the last time i was here was during my graduation trip. Well, KLIA is still busy and huge like i remembered, haha. It actually took us around 20 minutes juz to walk to the other bording area.

and during our walk i saw the drinking water corner, it's quite interesting, u need to push the button in front for the water to come out.
The plane to Penang is the lame 737 again >_<

After we reach Penang we took a cab to our hotel, the first thing the taxi driver asked me was, "are you japanese?" haha, i take tat as a compliment? =p

Initially my colleage from penang was suppose to pick us up and hav a discussion with us about the meeting the next day, but he was caught up in a meeting, so i gav him a call as soon as we landed at Penang, he reached our hotel even before we finish checking in, so we juz left our thing in the room, and went out with him almost immediately. He brought us to the gurney plazza which was not very far off. We sat at starbucks there and discussed for a while, and after tat we took a walk around to wait for him to finish his job and send us bek to the hotel.
Wasnt really in the mood to shop, so we juz did some window shopping, and at the lower groud floor, we saw tis cafe (?) which really has a nice design, i would guess tat a cafe like tis would be selling western food, but to our surprise the cafe doesnt, ermm... if i din remember wrongly, tis cafe sells taiwan food, doesnt really match the feel huh? =p
I think it was almost 7 when he sent us bek to the hotel, we were really tired, and went straight into our room
and finally we can enjoy our 4-star hotel, haha. I have to say tat i feel the room i stayed in RH Hotel, Sibu last time was slightly better, i guess one of the reason would be RH is a new building, so the design is more modern, but then, tis room is not bad too, hehe.


and most importantly, our room is on the 27th floor, where we can see gurney drive and the sea, the view is great! imagine waking up to see the sea in the morning, it's juz soooo nice~
But we din really hav a lot of time to enjoy the room yet, haha, coz mooi n gaik is going to pick us up for dinner soon, so we rush to take our bath and waited for them to reach. Since it's our first nite in Penang, we choose to have some local food, so we went to the gurney hawker centre near our hotel.

The place is flooded with ppl! but we din wait too long for our food. After our dinner we went to the beach side (?) juz opposite the hawker centre for a walk there, and we chatted whole nite till it's almost 12am, haha.
