Penang Trip 2016

It's my second time to Penang this year.
The main purpose is to attend and witness Sheauwei's wedding.
I am feel so happy for her as she finally found her Mr. Right.

In this post, I will be writing my 3D2N Peneng Travelogue.
Yes, squeezing everything in one post.
Really didn't do much as this mostly just to attend her wedding.

3 Dec 2016
We took the 11.20pm flight and the flight took about 1hr20mins.
By the way, we rent the Wifi Router from Changi Recommends.
But i can tell you, it is not recommended at all for Malaysia trip.
The data is so slow and sometimes I cant even get connection which I don't know why.
I spent $34 (inclusive of insurance) for this for 3 days which is not worthy at all.

Anyway, we touched down Penang at 1.30pm due to slight flight delay.
Had our lunch at the airport before heading to our hotel to check in and get prepared for the night.
The hotel that we stayed in is Hotel Equatorial Penang.
It's the hotel where SW's wedding dinner held at.
By the way, this hotel do provide airport transfer BUT you need to email and tell them what time they need to go to the airport to fetch you.
They didn't tell me that we need to make reservation in the email, which I wasn't very happy about it, so in the end we took Grab car to the hotel.

Reached the hotel and took a while to check in.
By the time, we went into the room, we need to prepare for the dinner.




The wedding dinner held at Etolie function room.
The rest, I will just use photos to show you the night.










4 Dec 2016
Woke up really early on this day to prepare for the customary wedding.
I was one of the sisters.

This is the view outside my room balcony.


My tired face.. Haha..


#OOTD.
All sisters will be wearing the same long skirt.

Reached SW's brother house and saw that she was preparing.
The other sister were planning games for the groom and brothers.

After SW done her makeup, we went for some photoshoots.
Also did mannequin challenge but the video is with the videographer.



Then its gate crash time.
It was my first experience really 不知所措 but still goes well smoothly. Haha..





Gatecrash successful!
After that, we stayed for a while before heading back to hotel to have our time.


This is the view outside SW's brother house.
It was a beautiful day so I took a snapshot of the view while waiting for our grabcar.


And this is our view in the day.
Chio right?

Anyway, back to our room and changed to a much comfortable outfit before heading out for shopping at Queensbay Mall.
We took the shutter bus provided by the hotel.
It was really convenient.

At Queensbay Mall, the Christmas feel is already up.
As the mall is under CapitaLand, I can see that the mall is very much like Singapore's.




And again, we are at the supermarket looking for foods to buy back for SG.
G took a photo of me holding so many maggie mee.. Lol!
Its not mine alone okay..



Bought so much food back again..

We had our lunch at the mall before heading back to hotel for Spa.
Not a very good experience because the massage is repeat motion.
I guess the therapist should upgrade her skills.
Other than time, I think it is okay..


The Christmas decoration in the hotel.

It was the last night in Penang.
We flew back to Singapore the next morning.

Due to the short time, we are unable to explore much this time.
Hopefully to go back again as I think Penang is still quite a nice place to visit. :)

Short Gateaway to Kuala Lumpur

This is a backlog travelogue on Kuala Lumpur (KL). :p
Back in September, Boyfriend and I went to KL for a short getaway and also to attend my ex-colleague wedding.
It was like an weekend trip.
We went on the Saturday and came back on Monday (21~23 Sept 2013).
It wasn't my first trip to KL though as I went there on a holiday before back in 2009 which was like 4yrs ago.





On day one, after we touched down and check in to Prince Hotel & Residence KL, we went to explore Pavillion Mall.
The hotel and the mall is just less than 5min walk away only.


Had our first meal in KL Santouka.


Then we explore the Tokyo Street in Pavillion.


Some decoration. I guess it was around the Mid Autumn Festival then.




BIG origami crane


And boyfriend with his favorite cartoon character Doraemon. LOL!

After exploring Pavillion, we went to Bukit Bintang area where we saw H&M there.
I tell you, the stuff there are so much cheaper than in Singapore because of the currency rate.
It was SGD1=MYR2.57 so it was a privilege for us!.
I bought a few clothes back which was worthy. ^^


Had our dinner at LOT 10 foodcourt.
Guess how much I bought this duck rice for??


RM12.00 for Malaysian chicken seems expensive lea??
But for us its around S$5, not worth it for that portion.

Back to hotel at night to rest and we caught fireworks outside our room.
Not sure what event was that but they put it a few times.



On the day 2 which is the wedding day of my colleague.
Because I only attending the dinner, we had free time in the morning and noon.
Boyfriend and I decide to travel out of our area and head to Mid Valley MegaMall.

We walked to KLCC because we want to take the train from there.
Along the way, we asked many people for the direction. LOL!


I swear the KL transit is complicated for a small state. -__-
I hope Singapore MRT line don't be so complicate in future for a small country.


Leaving KLCC to KL Sentral to change line to Mid Valley.


Here's the KL Sentra. Complicated area where you need to find the correct color line to go to your destination.



Mid Valley MegaMall is indeed a mega mall.
However, there's nothing much that interests us.
So when those shops don't interest us, we head to the supermarket area. HAHA!


Colorful Macaroon which regretted didnt try...


Snacking and resting our legs.


Bought this Bevanda ice Lemon Tea and its really nice.
Almost tastes the same as the one I bought in Penang.
Still wondering what the brand that I bought in Penang. D;


Heading back to our hotel to get ready for dinner..


On our way back to the hotel, we caught a rainbow in the fountain near KLCC.
This Is NOT Photoshopped.


Selfie after dressing up. :p


BF and I ready~

Then we went to meet my ex bosses and colleague and we took a cab together to the restaurant called Dynasty Dragon Seafood Restaurant at SS Two Mall.
The place was quite deserted that even the cab driver also don't even know the place and we kept going round and round. Zzz
Still, we reached the place safely~


With the pretty bride, June.




KTPL people from all over the world, Singapore, Malaysia, Japan..
















Actually, Malaysia Chinese wedding is same as the Singapore Chinese custom wedding.
No difference.



So after the wedding dinner, we went back to our hotel and rest for the day.
Day three afternoon, we left KL and head back to Singapore.
Nice getaway. :)
