This morning, all of us headed out to have breakfast at the bitter gourd noodle place. Everyone except for Ko-ko enjoyed the breakfast. He thought that the bitter gourd taste was too strong. Mei-mei enjoyed the kuey tiau which is with a chewy texture.
We then headed back to the hotel to shower and then headed out to Big C for our last hurrah. Bought lots of groceries, including coffee, instant noodles, rice, and snacks.
Went back to the hotel with our tuk-tuk driver (same guy for the past few days), and then packed up.

As it was still early, we checked out and crossed the road to a cafe on the opposite side of our hotel. It's called Pewter Tag Pattiserie. The decorations inside is very pretty.
We went upstairs to have a look. It's very pretty... but very hot!
We had coffee and some cakes to share.
Of course, Mei-mei had ice-cream!
As Ko-ko did not really eat breakfast, he needed something to tide him over until we reached Penang. So he and daddy headed to the nearby
kopi tiam which served Penang food.. and ate lunch there.
Mei-mei and I on the other hand headed back to Jaelek and ordered her last Thai Milk Tea for takeaway.
Our van driver arrived at 1pm sharp. We loaded our stuff into the van and started our journey back. The driver stopped by a rice shop and we initially didn't want to buy more, but ended up buying some glutinous rice too.
On our return trip, we used the newly opened Sadao border crossing. Wah.. when we arrived, the queue was so long. And there were only very few counters open. But shortly after that, they quickly opened a few more counters and we cleared immigration on the Thai border within 30 minutes.
We also had to get off the van again this time with all our luggages to clear the Malaysian immigration. This was also done very quickly.
Hopped back into our van and off we go back to Penang.
Arrived home before 6pm. We're lucky that traffic was good all the way, even crossing the bridge.
