We woke up early to get ready for our trip to Penang (2D1N stay).
We started from our house at about 6:35am.
On the highway - 7:30am.
Crossing Penang 1st bridge - about 9am.
Smooth driving all the way except for about 10 minutes delay due to traffic jam caused by an accident.
Our 1st stop in Penang was for breakfast. We each had a bowl of koay teow th'ng. Flat rice noodle in soup with small pieces of duck meat, gizzard and some fish balls.
Next, we visited the waterfront walkway near Padang Kota Lama, Penang.
It was about 11:00am and we were sweating walking under the hot sun.
Can you spot the flying bird in the centre of the picture?
Nice and wide waterfront walkway.
