Family Bonding..
It has been a fabulous trip so far...A real family trip!! From the time we started planning this trip it has been taking different turns...It has been an adventure trip so far.. Imagine Leaving for foreign soil without having a hotel or transportation booking.. requires some adventurous tips is it not! But I relied on my son. I had the confidence that we would just make it and we did!
We left for Malaysia on the last bus from Singapore.. we were just on time!
We had decided, a few hours earlier, that we would visit Penang.
We reached Kuala Lumpur in the wee hours of the morning. To our pleasant surprise we stayed at the same motel we had stayed in a few years earlier.
Later in the morning we had a photo stop at Petronas Towers. We hired a Toyota Altis and drove to Penang which is about 3-4 hours from KL. The drive was scenic and we had a lot of catching up to do. Of course we missed the 'gang'!
Penang took us by surprise. Instead of a sleepy sea side town, here was a posh one! Skysrcapers dotted the landscape!
The sea side was awesome. Pearl grey sea, white sands, thatched restaurants, huge prawns and chilled beverages alongside para gliding and water scooter made the day!!
Our home stay at Penang was just about ok.
Our return trip to Kl was grueling with zillions of cars on the highway. At the nick of the hour we managed to get into a real posh double decker bus to Singapore...
Overall a nice breakaway and wonderful family bonding time...
