6 months since my last Penang visit and I'm heere again, this time with 3 other BB officers and former officers. We'll be doing a motorcruise from KL to Penang around March. So we were basically there to check out the potential hotel they'll be staying in. I won't be around then, that's why I used "they".
It was a 4-5 hour drive from KL to Penang, with a stop near Tapah (Baskin Robins. Heh). Other than that I was sleeping most of the time. When we got to Penang we immediately headed to Komtar to buy our bus tickets. Then we headed straight to out first hotel Crown something.. which totally sucked. Then we headed for lunch as there was some mix up at the second hotel, Naza.
We spent most of the time eating around. Food is probably the one thing that makes Penang unique. Most of the good stuff lack the decorative aspect, but it was a different story when the food goes into the mouth.
Penang Loh Mee
After lunch, we headed for Naza hotel, ahead of time. We were supposed to meet their marketing representative, but wasn't picking up our calls. Mr. Lawrence decided to head there anyway. That place was way better than the first hotel we visited, and our decision was obvious. So it'll be Naza hotel.. the end point of the the Motor Cruise. We decided the check in.. taking two rooms. Kok Kee decided to join us instead of going home.

At night we headed to Batu Ferenggi. Mr. Lawrence wanted to buy some DVDs. We were at Perangin Mall after lunch for some already. But instead, it was Mr. Yeng Voon and Kok Kee who ended up buying DVDs. I was tempted to buy one of those fake Rolex watches.. but decided against it as they were charging me to much.. even for a fake. RM190.. when I knew I could get it for RM20. I guess I'll buy one in KL instead.
After that we headed back to the hotel. Carol and Sorvine were so nice to pay me a visit.. making me feel a little bad to making them come a long way to the Island (they were from Butterworth). But it was nice talking and meeting up with them. Carol was just around in KL a week ago.
The next day we did nothing much but stay in the hotel watching DVDs.. and missing church =(. We came back to KL around 9.45pm.. where we had our dinner in Petaling Street. On the way to the LRT, I bought my fake watch.. wasnt't a rolex though. =P
