Taiping <---> Penang Trip

Posted by PeteR


Finally said BB to my 3rd year 1st sem final exam in USM. Just the next day after my "nightmare" Law paper, i had followed my church's pastor to serve a branch church in Taiping while having a gathering there.

Don't know since when i have not realy carried up my guitar and visit each of Philadephia Churches and conventions like last time i usually do... While i played guitar for the Praise and worship team there, i had meet few friends that arrived from Yong Peng , Johor. Along this post, i thinking of sharing along the nice places that i had bring my friends from Johor... Only few of the visited spots were shared here due to time, its speciality and some reasons....(Peter = lazy)

Taiping gogogo!! ...(Guess what is in the circle? -->Yummy "Dapao" McD Nugget with BBQ sauce =D)



1. Taiping Lake (a.k.a in chinese 太平湖)


Water cycling... (Cost around RM 8/pax)



2 brothers from Johor...wondering how to make the boat move??



Hmm....the sky seems not feeling so well huh? (Normal phenomenon for Taiping - Town of Rain 雨城)






Finally......this make the cycling process more "fun" although my whole body wet.. =D







After 2 days in Taiping, i had bring them to Penang for a 1 day walk.. round island maybe..


2. Botanical Garden, Penang

This is a nice place to visit. (Nice jogging spot and flora & fauna can be found)

Johor kia: WOW...what is this?? ----> "Cannon Ball" tree (unconsumeable)


Fauna found.. ---> craving for food and will chase you if u hold food on ur hand....


Cherry fruit --> for those who is on diet, try to have some of it while u jogging in this botanical garden ( It taste super sour till u cant open ur eyes..trust me)

Note: Picking the flora in the garden is illegal... but...lol =D



3. Erm... A place at Kek Lok Si Hill.. forgot the name... temple maybe.?

Bunch of turtles waiting u to feed them by buy "eng chai" from the shop keeper there.... good business.


4. Air Hitam Water Dam (PBA)


Nice View while chating with a old friend from hometown (Who take this photo secretly leh... u kn0w who r u)



5. Small Genting, Penang (小云顶)



Another nice place in Penang to visit. Erm... this is a restaurant on a hill between Batu Maung and Balik Pulau. This restaurant serves mainly Thai food and others special food that hard to find in any place in penang, like 一口一包,青咖哩,Thai Tomyam,Thai style fish cake, etc... Furthermore, the beutiful scenery and the freshy air here there will makes you think that ---- How come Penang here will have such a nice place! Specially when you look down to the sea view, the paddy view and the town view.
(Due to reasons:)
1. Timing : I reach there around nite time, the view canot been shown perfectly to you all
2. Item used: I only manage to use a lousy phone to take the photo shots, so the quality shown is mah mah dei only ...
Try to visit there if you got chance! No bluff, it's truely deeply nice!




Some Snap Shots From the Hill






hehe.. my Johor Friend's car with high-end equip inside...comfortable(but round Penang island had cost maybe around 2/3 tank of its petrol...)

Conclusion:

Thanks God for giving me this opportunity to visit Taiping and Penang with them. And one thing that i found is that .... through out the whole Penang round island, the only thing that i keep doing is EAT EAT EAT! Place that mainly we visit is also about EAT! =D

Till here for this time la... sleepy...
