Penang day-2

Now, I’m resting with my family. I’ll tell you guys about today 😉

8.38 AM

We left the house to go to Bukit Bendera or otherwise known in English Penang Hill. We ate breakfast ate home. After breakfast we straight away went to Bukit Bendera.

9.00 AM

We reached Bukit Bendera. Surprisingly, the place was completely empty! It was our luck! We bought our tickets then queued to get on the train. That’s when there was a really, really, really long line. So, we had to stand.

A very,very long line

A few minutes later the line started moving. We saw the train. I was surprised to see the train. It was tilting! Without a moment to lose, we had to get into the train because the train was starting to get full.

 We were searching for an entrance that wasn’t full when suddenly, an English lady said, “Here! Here! You all can come in here!”

Without saying anything, we all got into the entrance. The door of the train then closed. Then the train started to move.

In the train, the English lady that was calling us just now said, “All the other entrance are just the same. Might as well get into this entrance.”

“Thank you.” Said my father.

The lady only smiled.

We enjoyed the view from inside the train. There were houses below.

Moments later, we reached the hill. It was pretty cold up there. We were 712 meters above sea level. It was a good thing that I was wearing an extra shirt inside my shirt.

There was a skywalk there. The view from there was beautiful.

We walked on the hill. We saw a stall. In the stall, there was an indian lady selling things. One of them was interesting. When you blow into it, it could make a sound like a bird. Without a second thought, my father bought that thing for me and my siblings.

We walked some more.

After a while, my father thought of booking a buggy. When the man arrived, we had to take two buggies because one buggy couldn’t fit the eight of us. So, I went on the buggy which had my sister, grandparents and maid. While my brother went on the buggy which had my father and mother.

Malaysia's first post box. 

As soon as we had already gotten into the jeep, the man that drove the buggy drove it. While he was driving, he explained the history of the place. Minutes later he turned the jeep around to return to the main place. My parents and brother’s jeep was right behind us.

After we got of the buggy, my father, my two siblings and I went to the owl museum. My siblings didn’t have to pay because they were under the age of 7. As for me and my father, he had to pay for the both of us. I cost RM6 while my father cost RM12. After paying we went inside.

In the end, we found ourselves being cheated. You want to know why? Because, we were expecting to see real live owls. In the end, there were only paintings and 3D owls in there. Humph!

Once we got out, I bought my friends and me souvenirs.

After that, we left Bukit Bendera to have lunch.

When we arrived at the place where we were going to have lunch, my siblings and I were very, very tired. Once got to the table, my parents went to buy the food while my siblings and I slept at the table.

I think that we slept for an hour because when I woke up, the place was even more crowded than before. My grandma who was next to me had woken me up. Her hands were strong for a 56 year old.

I ate the food that was served to me. Then I got my energy back. As soon as we finished eating, we left the shop and went to the 3D Penang Trick Art museum.

3.26 PM

We reached the 3D Penang Trick Art museum. We bought our tickets then went inside. The place was cool! I took some pictures that would amaze you.

5.35 PM

We got out of the 3D Penang Trick Art museum and went straight back to the apartment.

It has been a tiring day. And tomorrow is our last day here in Penang, George Town. Well, I don’t know what will happen tomorrow. Well, until the next adventure which is tomorrow. Bye!
