A trip to Penang Hill

1st May, labour day holiday ...... bring my children's to visit a place which was kept secret till arrive there  .... Penang Hill ... a place for everyone to make a visit if they were at Penang. The hill was closed for the public for the renovation work for almost 2 years .... It was officially open for public last month .... and we thought want to visit the place after a 10 years gap !! ..... it was a nostalgic moment for me and my wife ... a place where we use to date before our marriage ..... but before that ... take our lunch ast Nasi Kandar Kapitan , their popular clay pot briyani and chicken tanddori ......
















As anticipated, the place is crowded with people, everyone want to experience the new hill train ans so do us .. queue ~ 40 min to reach the departure area ..... it was a new experience ... the train is very fast it only took us ~8 min to reach the hill-top .... it used to take ~ 20 to 30min with an exchange train at the mid-station. The new rail system pass the mid station and direct to hill-top.... kind of disappointment, where you really cannot enjoy the scenery ...... anyhow everyone enjoy the trip .....

Me, my darling, my son and my daughter on the canon .........
