We decided to make a trip up to Penang Hill on Tuesday. It was the last day we had off for the Hari Raya holidays. And feeling ratehr guilty that we did not do anything this holidays, we headed up the hill. Ah Kong dropped us off at the foot of the hill as we worried there may not be many parking slots.
There were a large group of people just sitting around and we got worried that we may not be able to go up. But, we decided to try our luck and queued up for the train tickets.
After that we quickly went to join the queue to get onto the train. Waited around 15 minutes or so then it was our turn to get onto the train. It was a rather tight squeeze but you and mei-mei were ok. One kind lady even asked her granddaughter to sit on her lap so that you could have a seat.
Very shortly we reached the top of the hill. Everyone stood around enjoying the view of the tracks and of Penang. Too bad it was a little hazy.
After daddy had finished taking pictures of the view and of us, we took a stroll and saw David Brown's restaurant which we had planned to eat at. Since it was already 11.30 and after a debate we opted to have lunch first before walking around.
Lunch was nice. We had packed Mei-mei's lunch along. While waiting for our orders, daddy took more pictures. You also had some fun taking pictures using my camera until your lunch arrived. After we were all fed, we took more pictures before leaving the little restaurant.



We walked around a little more. Then we saw the little bird park, but you did not want to go in. So we just wandered around enjoying the cool weather and then poor Mei-Mei who did not have her morning nap fell asleep.
As there was nothing more to do, we headed to the train station to go home. Just a short trip, but fun for us all.
