Short Trip to Penang - Part 2

We enjoyed the Straits Quay marina surroundings very much. Beautiful architecture, very relaxing and spacious...a bonus point for Qeeb who just learned how to walk.

The Straits Quay is part of the Seri Tanjung Pinang project by E&O developments. A quay of wharf is a structure on the shore of a harbor where ships may dock.

Just like what people advised...toddler yang dah pandai jalan can be very handful! Arrrghh i'm experiencing the same. Qeeb just walked blindly macam orang mabuk here and there, refused to follow our direction and tak suka pegang tangan. Basically, i had a good exercise and i should've wear sports attire instead.

 

 

Just like Jeeb's t-shirt, he need all the energy he can get. Lol!

 

 

There was a flea market outside the mall. Some of the sellers were expats.

Beautiful view of the quay with luxury boats. There were also a number of cozy cafes e.g Delicious, Aseana, Dome etc.

After that we stopped by Padang Kota to find delicious local food. But Qeeb fell asleep immediately in the car so we had to tapau instead. Nak tolak stroller cam tak muat jer. Jeeb bought char koay tiaw + rojak and we had dinner in the hotel room sambil tgk tv. Syiok jugak!

The next day we checked out from hotel. Took a peek at the swimmimg pool yang tak de chance nak try T__T

Went to the other side of island to settle our stuff. Sekecik2 Penang...jauh jugak rasanyer nak pegi tempat tuh. By the time we were done, it was already afternoon and i asked Jeeb to detour to my kampung... kampung seronok. Mula2 confident tau jalan but lepas tuh hesitated sbb rasa cam salah simpang lol! Rupanyer2 i was right cuma jalan tuh yang dah bertukar rupa! Happy dapat tunjuk to Jeeb my kampung heheh...but tak singgah to visit my relative though because it was unplanned and we were in a hurry to go back to KL. There was a part depan my kampung area yang ada classic 1980's look of small town. Amazingly it was still there and untouched in spite of the massive development in that area. Wanted to stop to take a photo of the small town but cuaca panas, no place to stop dengan nak cepatnyer maka terpaksa batalkan niat and hoping the place will still be there when we visit Penang again.

We stopped by Queensbay mall to have lunch at Kenny Rogers, managed to grab an iphone 3gs case (punyer lah susah nak carik skang) and went to Daiso to buy additional windshield to prepare our journey dalam panas.

 

Dah nak dekat2 sampai KL tuh...we stopped by at R&R to solat, stretching, have coffee and quick dinner. Kol 7 lebey baru start balik journey sampai lah shah alam...tah pukul brapa tah time tuh. Besoknye kene kejer plak...lemau jugak lah. But Alhamdulillah, urusan official dah slamat settle and we had a nice simple and brief trip to Penang.
