  2. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Today is Malaysia&#39;s 60th year since independence in 1957. It is a long holiday weekend ahead and we are off to Teluk Kumbar (teluk means bay) a less popular part of Penang island in the South.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  3. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  4. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  6. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;After a tasty dim-sum meal we left Petaling Jaya at around 12.30pm and it didn&#39;t take long to realize that it is going to be a long drive. Traffic on the highway was bumper-to-bumper for most of the Selangor stage of the trip.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  7. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  8. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  10. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;After about six hours we arrived at Ipoh and had dinner at our favorite restaurant. Waze informed that it would take another four hours to reach our destination.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  11. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

  14. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;Alas we arrived at the Lexis Suites Penang at about 11pm. It was unbelievable. Time to shower and hit the sack.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  22. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;The next morning saw a light shower come down. Our room had a view of the bay (above). We&#39;d be driving across the bridge to the mainland to visit our relatives in Simpang Ampat.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  36. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: &amp;quot;arial&amp;quot; , &amp;quot;helvetica&amp;quot; , sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I liked the beach as it wasn&#39;t packed like the ones in the north (Batu Ferringhi). In place of jet-skis and motor boats Teluk Kumbar has the rustic charms of fishing boats (above) and lazy dogs (below).&amp;nbsp;The cool breeze was just the match for my cold beer in my hand.

  62. &lt;br /&gt;
  63. We met four WWOOFers there - from Brazil and Switzerland. The pond is being prepped to breed fish on commercial basis.&lt;br /&gt;

  135. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I found Eva, a pearl cockatiel online. Her owner, Farhan had her for eighteen months and decided to let her go due to forthcoming engagement and work commitments.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  136. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  140. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  141. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;After a flurry of WhatsApp messages we arranged to meet on Sunday morning, December 4 at Giant Kelana Jaya parking lot.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  142. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  143. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  144. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  145. &lt;span style=&quot;font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;&quot;&gt;I arrived first and Farhan minutes later. I sat in the rear seat and there she was in a cage in the front passenger seat. He took her out but she panicked and slammed against the front windshield.Ouch! She calmed down and perched on Farhan&#39;s index finger. Instinctively I placed my index finger in front of her and she stepped onto it. Instantly I knew she was mine. I did not have to choose her - Eva chose me!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;

  161. We had three days of fun at the Lexis Hibiscus in Port Dickson. We participated in a number of activities like water sports - the &#39;Bandwagon&#39; (second pic)was a lot of fun as we requested the boat to go fast. I really had to hold tight in the bends or risk being thrown into the water.&lt;/div&gt;

  170. &lt;br /&gt;
  171. There were lots to do for both young and old - we rented bicycles - they had tandem bicycles too, self-balancing &#39;Segway-type&#39; electric rides, archery, helicopter ride and more. For indoor fun we let loose in the karaoke room. The food was good too and I especially liked the nasi lemak.&lt;br /&gt;

They are very easy to care for and being tame we get to pet them.&lt;br /&gt;
  204. &lt;br /&gt;
  205. The weather has been terribly hot of late and so we had to coax them to get their bath. We actually purchased a large bath bowl for them but they refuse to use it. So we have to use this reptile bowl as usual. It was the first item they used and I guess they too are creatures of habit.&lt;br /&gt;

  210. &lt;br /&gt;
  211. Nicole and I spent a night at the organic farm near the coastal town of Kuala Selangor. Being a holiday the drive was smooth.&lt;br /&gt;
  212. &lt;br /&gt;
  213. We were greeted at the gate by Edy, a young chap from Taiping who has been at the farm since May this year. He is doing his final semester in Environmental Science at UNISEL (Universiti of Selangor in Bestari Jaya).&lt;br /&gt;
  214. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  215. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA9pGD7oRcP_608TWlQZTfLOf7ZUUJEMBnDjfSJ4ZleomLG9YxoKFY735vRFYYm9I4UqEzMQvIwSzFsZIx9MaruK0ZdFSNHlDRiiiZth5SK3pXMjgq1iEuMs9l54OBF4ISekVh/s1600/DSC_1508.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;320&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhA9pGD7oRcP_608TWlQZTfLOf7ZUUJEMBnDjfSJ4ZleomLG9YxoKFY735vRFYYm9I4UqEzMQvIwSzFsZIx9MaruK0ZdFSNHlDRiiiZth5SK3pXMjgq1iEuMs9l54OBF4ISekVh/s320/DSC_1508.JPG&quot; width=&quot;180&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  216. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  217. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  218. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  219. Next we were greeted by David Mak who manages the 10-acre farm with help mostly from WWOOFers but we missed the last batch as they had left a coupe of days ago.&lt;/div&gt;
  220. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  221. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  222. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  223. After chatting for a bit David gave us a tour around the farm. Tilapia and prawn breeding has just begun and it certainly looks promising. Most of the revenue comes from the lime, calamansi and lemon trees at the moment.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  224. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  226. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  227. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  228. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  229. Nicole had fun with the two kittens and David&#39;s four children. They are very enthusiastic in starting bonfires.&lt;/div&gt;

  232. In the evening we helped harvest the limes as there was an order that needed to be met. Boy, the mozzies were nasty and mosquito repellent did not deter them at all.&lt;br /&gt;
  233. &lt;br /&gt;
  234. Even though it was a one night stay I had a good time. Why we even had our &#39;front-row seats&#39; of a NatGeo moment - first it was a little (12 inches) brown snake attacking a brown frog much heavier than it. Then one of the kittens came to investigate thereby causing the snake to abandon it&#39;s prey (dead by then) and it flew (yes it did not slither but propelled itself) away from the kitten. That gave us a fright. In the middle of the night we awoke to squeals of a mice - lo and behold the big cat had caught it right beside Nicole&#39;s bed. After a few minutes of crunching noises we tried to sleep but couldn&#39;t. When we woke up we did not find any parts of the mice left, just some bloodstains and we saw the cat going out minus anything in its mouth so it had eaten it&#39;s prey entirely.&lt;br /&gt;
  235. &lt;br /&gt;
  236. On leaving Edy brought us to a quaint eatery nearby famed for its cendol - called Cendol Bakar. It was fantastic!&lt;br /&gt;

I got four. Three weeks earlier I had initiated contact with her after I read her post in an online site. Unfortunately the budgies had already been sold.&lt;br /&gt;
  246. &lt;br /&gt;
  247. I hesitated to reply but minutes later i got this pic! That&#39;s it! I gotta have them.&lt;br /&gt;
  248. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  250. After a flurry of messages I told Nicole to get ready to head out. She had no idea where we were heading to.&lt;br /&gt;
  251. &lt;br /&gt;
  252. We arrived at the residence around 2pm and were greeted by Ling Ling and her kids, Chloe (she is eight and totally into animals) and Matthew. Lined on both sides of the home were kennels and bird cages. We were in paradise.&lt;br /&gt;
  253. &lt;br /&gt;
  254. We played with the four baby budgies and Chloe&#39;s own adult budgie named Junior which incidentally shared her birthday.&lt;br /&gt;
  255. &lt;br /&gt;
  256. So after a lapse of 45 years I am once again in touch with budgies. Why? My late father had over a dozen budgies up until his death in 1969. Sadly his birds eventually died after his passing due to lack of care. I was six then and looking back we had other critical issues to deal with.&lt;br /&gt;

  276. After our Bentong farm experience I decided to volunteer on an organic farm for a few days. On December 8, I emailed Kenny Ng of Green Wish Vegi Garden which is located in Chenderiang, a small town 14km from Tapah in the state of Perak. I received a positive reply from Kenny the same night. &lt;/div&gt;
  277. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  278. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  279. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  280. I decided to begin my *WWOOFing experience on December 17 and began making a list of essentials I needed.&lt;/div&gt;
  281. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  282. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  283. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  284. D-Day and I depart for Chenderiang, about 166km north of Petaling Jaya. The drive was smooth and weather was overcast. Splendid! I exited the expressway into Tapah town and as I neared Chenderiang - I lowered my window. Lovely clean, fresh air. The small town had one main road with rustic pre-war shop-houses. &lt;/div&gt;
  285. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  286. &lt;/div&gt;
  287. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  288. &lt;/div&gt;
  289. &lt;br /&gt;
  290. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  291. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoB4QpI9-CQ4_hVowVrkGGd5tTtaPsSh-HPE7pv5_ngmk2LuJPQOFYm6D4dYEvh1pKKsUhIBmKF80ZSFTXcuA2h8oC81f5k4la10bemjSwhpRJ9nNzqiMQr07kcvJvEfd_a8O6/s1600/DSC_0930.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;225&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoB4QpI9-CQ4_hVowVrkGGd5tTtaPsSh-HPE7pv5_ngmk2LuJPQOFYm6D4dYEvh1pKKsUhIBmKF80ZSFTXcuA2h8oC81f5k4la10bemjSwhpRJ9nNzqiMQr07kcvJvEfd_a8O6/s1600/DSC_0930.JPG&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  292. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  293. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  294. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  295. After another 8.8km passing through kampung (village) houses I arrived at my destination. At this moment I had not decided on the length of my stay. I reckon it will be the 3-day minimum and if I could I&#39;d aim for five days.&lt;/div&gt;
  296. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  297. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  298. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  299. I was greeted by Lee May, Kenny&#39;s wife at the main house. Minutes later Kenny emerges from the farm at back to welcome me. After I had stowed my kit away in the guest room I followed Kenny to the area where three other volunteers are busy weeding the plot. I am introduced to Romy, a young German lady and Mike and girlfriend Alle from Boston (short for Alejandra), who just arrived the night before. &lt;/div&gt;
  300. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  305. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  306. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYHx05A2Z84H-MDLP1ZI0zspSURKPMHXlNaovavIVq-B7aJk5pJSNrwhp_6-oZnuyyTcfuLPk76y6qoneD5FJw_5Cwi3wjN9I1ZIOfVSBgX1GBTBCHZyhkcENL4eNtzYa22Ie9/s1600/DSC_0950.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;225&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYHx05A2Z84H-MDLP1ZI0zspSURKPMHXlNaovavIVq-B7aJk5pJSNrwhp_6-oZnuyyTcfuLPk76y6qoneD5FJw_5Cwi3wjN9I1ZIOfVSBgX1GBTBCHZyhkcENL4eNtzYa22Ie9/s1600/DSC_0950.JPG&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  307. &lt;br /&gt;
  308. My first task was to scoop compost with my bare hands from the wheelbarrow and spread it onto the raised bed. The compost comprised of weeds and goat dung - totally no smell. Next was our break and we feasted on juicy papayas in the dining area. I learned that the water was sourced from the mountain stream and it was safe for drinking even without boiling.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  309. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  310. &lt;a href=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0UVIfNw-aAKbzpds9QpSbY1WopYr8CPc5kvZHOnKhRV5A3v-697_rxiR_9od0d7IwWgbI2mKzHxjCbwd9RFHWtcIv-uylMHWkvbA6j4xU6MiSY_8b4A0Jena_Yhg58kcYkJz_/s1600/DSC_0938.JPG&quot; imageanchor=&quot;1&quot; style=&quot;margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;&quot;&gt;&lt;img border=&quot;0&quot; height=&quot;225&quot; src=&quot;https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj0UVIfNw-aAKbzpds9QpSbY1WopYr8CPc5kvZHOnKhRV5A3v-697_rxiR_9od0d7IwWgbI2mKzHxjCbwd9RFHWtcIv-uylMHWkvbA6j4xU6MiSY_8b4A0Jena_Yhg58kcYkJz_/s1600/DSC_0938.JPG&quot; width=&quot;400&quot; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  311. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  312. &lt;span style=&quot;color: purple;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: x-small;&quot;&gt;The sheeting we installed is on the left. Compare to the weather-beaten one at right.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  313. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  314. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  315. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  316. After the break we replaced the sheeting on a hoop house. It was quite challenging to get the UV sheet over the structure and down on both sides as it was about 12 feet high I guess. &lt;/div&gt;

  318. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  319. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  320. Oh, did I mention that my hosts were vegitarians? It means I will for once in my life will not be eating any meat. Over lunch I learned that all the three other WWOOFers also do not consume meat. Romy, is the lone vegan. WWOOFing work hours are from 7.30 am to 12.30 pm, thus the afternoon I spent chatting with Romy. As for the Americans, well they were still recovering from jet-lag. &lt;/div&gt;
  321. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  322. &lt;br /&gt;
  323. My alone time in the afternoon was to take a ride on my mountain bike. I must say that time really goes by quickly when I&#39;m farming but the afternoons and nights dragged by slowly as the other WWOOFers preferred to retreat to their quarters. Between listening to music, reading and playing with the dogs (all nine of them), there isn&#39;t anything else to do.&lt;br /&gt;
  324. &lt;br /&gt;
  325. Day two saw us uprooting the old okra plants and rebuilding the raised-bed which over the months had been eroded by rain. The entire work-day was spent doing so and boy my back was aching now. Lunch was a delight. We had a salad with over ten vegetables picked fresh from the garden. I never thought I&#39;d hear myself say, &#39;being vegetarian is not that bad after all&#39;.&lt;br /&gt;
  326. &lt;br /&gt;
  327. After another night of inactivity I had decided tomorrow would be my last day. Also the fact my arthritis had flared up with my right knee and left ankle both swollen.&lt;br /&gt;
  328. &lt;br /&gt;
  329. Day three was the most difficult as my knee and ankle pain is now further aggravated with backache shooting up my spine. I trudged on and we complete rebuilding the bed and planted bitter gourd seeds. Mission accomplished!&lt;br /&gt;
  330. &lt;br /&gt;
  331. I may want to go on another WWOOFing stint at another farm. This time I will get in shape before I begin.&lt;br /&gt;

It is about quarter past nine and we meet near the iconic Batu Caves. Traffic was smooth and soon we reached Bentong town and the streets were packed with cars from KL/Selangor.&lt;br /&gt;
  341. &lt;br /&gt;
  342. After breakfast we headed to the farm. Nicole was excited to play with the seven puppies and it has been two weeks and they have grown. The little critters chomped on the dog kibble we brought.&lt;br /&gt;
  343. &lt;br /&gt;
  344. The remainder of our two hour sojourn we spent chatting with brothers Gan, Caleb, Robert and Tim.&lt;br /&gt;

  354. I was scouting for a farmstay holiday the past month and after much reading online I decided to contact a permaculture farm in Lenggong, Perak named Ladang Teh Lenggong (Lenggong Tea Plantation). Apparently it used to be a tea plantation until it shut down in the 80s.&lt;/div&gt;
  355. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  356. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  357. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  358. Plan had a change after a friend informed me about a farm in Bentong. I attended their talk in town and turns out they just launched a &#39;mini land lease&#39; scheme. For a small fee which includes ten 2D1N stay one gets to rent a tiny piece of land to farm on.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;
  359. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  360. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  361. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  362. So off we went on Saturday, November 8th for Bentong (slightly over 80km away). Traffic was light and we drove at a somewhat leisurely speed. We reached the farm, GY Happy Farm about 2.30pm and the coolness was a welcome reprieve from the humidity and pollution back home. This is what &#39;greeted&#39; us. Looking good so far.&lt;/div&gt;
  363. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

  397. Check-in time into the little chalet. Spartan but it will suffice. Next to the canteen for a welcome and introduction to the farm&#39;s vision. The owner, Mr Gan&#39;s vision is to emulate the Israeli kibbutz way of life - sounds like a plan from my heart. Well the way prices of daily necessities are rising there may come a day not too long where a communal farm is the wiser option. Brings to mind a 70s song that goes, &quot;a piece of bread could buy a bag of gold&quot;.&lt;/div&gt;
  398. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  399. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  400. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  401. Day Two and I slept well. We got up at six am and gathered at 7 am to take a 15 or so minute trek up to the Prayer&amp;nbsp; Mountain. The view from up here was awesome. We stood in the clouds. Worship began soon after and Pastor Phillip and entourage from Kuala Lumpur arrived bringing with them half a dozen shofars and banners. Far out!&lt;/div&gt;
  402. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;

  446. Three days two nights (Oct. 4 - 6) holiday at Hard Rock Penang here we come! We traveled by air as everyone knows the highways will be choked up with traffic as Monday was a public holiday.&lt;/div&gt;
  447. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  448. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  449. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  450. We boarded the 10.20 am flight on Firefly in Subang (Sultan SAAS Airport/SZB). The plane&#39;s approach upon landing was rather &#39;bumpy&#39; as it was raining on the island. Next we hopped onto the hired mpv and onto our first stop - Ah Leng Char Koay Teow. I was the only person in our gang that had yet to savor this delicacy. It was superb - way, way tastier than the moody aunty in Lorong Selamat. The large prawns were cooked to perfection. It had that &#39;bounce&#39; as you chewed on it. RM11.50 for a plate of koay teow (rice cake strip noodles) with big prawns, mantiss prawns, cockles and duck egg may seem steep but it is totally worth it. (Sorry no pics as we &#39;attacked&#39; immediately - you can Google and there are lotsa pics online).&lt;/div&gt;
  451. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  452. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
  453. &lt;div style=&quot;text-align: justify;&quot;&gt;
  454. Satisfied we headed to the hotel in Batu Ferringhi. Check -in was 3.00 pm. After unpacking we planned for the next meal. Fast forward - we decided to have dinner at an old favorite, &lt;a href=&quot;http://happygarden2u.wordpress.com/&quot; title=&quot;Happy Garden&quot;&gt;Happy Garden Restaurant.&lt;/a&gt; It&#39;s a quaint old house run by a Hainanese family.&lt;br /&gt;
  455. &lt;br /&gt;
  456. Day Two (Sunday) - we decided to rent bicycles and visit the George Town (recognised as a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNESCO&quot; title=&quot;UNESCO&quot;&gt;UNESCO&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_Heritage_Site&quot; title=&quot;World Heritage Site&quot;&gt;World Heritage Site&amp;nbsp;&lt;/a&gt; on 7 July 2008). We had planned to find the shop that rented the four-wheeled Town Car bicycles. We asked the chap at Chin Seng Leong bicycle shop (Lebuh Armenian) about it and he was so gracious to point us to the location. Many other person would have been less inclined to do the same. Naturally we stuck with him and proceeded to collect our rides. Nicole has yet to learn to ride so we got her a cute little tricycle (see video). The rain had by now become heavier but it did not dampen our spirits. &lt;br /&gt;
  457. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  458. &lt;/div&gt;
  459. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  460. &lt;/div&gt;

  465. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  466. &lt;/div&gt;
  467. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  468. &lt;/div&gt;
  469. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  470. &lt;/div&gt;
  471. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;
  472. &lt;/div&gt;
  473. &lt;div class=&quot;separator&quot; style=&quot;clear: both; text-align: center;&quot;&gt;

  475. &lt;/div&gt;
  476. &lt;br /&gt;
  477. We&#39;ll definitely do this again on our next visit. It was a blast! It is now &#39;food-hunt time&#39;!&lt;br /&gt;

  487. &lt;br /&gt;
  488. We chanced upon this coffee shop in the Moulmein area in Pulau Tikus. Nothing spectacular but we were hungry and most of the famous joints were closed by now. I don&#39;t recall the shop&#39;s name but it had a wall dedicated to Malaysian national bowler Adrian Ang. I&#39;m guessing his family owns the joint.&lt;br /&gt;
  489. &lt;br /&gt;
  490. For dinner we ordered takeaway from Happy Garden - same dishes same tastiness. The Fab Family then surprised me with an early birthday cake. Thanks guys. You got me!&lt;br /&gt;
  491. &lt;br /&gt;
  492. Day Three (Monday) - our final day in Penang. We checked out at 3pm and took the scenic route across the hilly terrain of Teluk Bahang. The ride made me car-sick.&lt;br /&gt;
  493. &lt;br /&gt;
  494. Our final food-stop was the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.google.com.my/search?q=new+lane+penang&amp;amp;biw=1280&amp;amp;bih=654&amp;amp;source=lnms&amp;amp;tbm=isch&amp;amp;sa=X&amp;amp;ei=uJYzVK70G4iNuASnugI&amp;amp;ved=0CAcQ_AUoAg&quot; title=&quot;New Lane Hawker&quot;&gt;New Lane Hawker&lt;/a&gt;  area in Georgetown. We ordered BBQ chicken wings, pig innards porridge, kangkung sotong, char koay teow, fried oysters ... food-dizzy now. Fabulous! You cannot ever get enough of this. Having just enjoyed our meal we were already planning our return. Yes. We shall return in six weeks time.&lt;br /&gt;
