A Week of Getaway: Day 2 & Day 3

Hey people.. I'm back again to blog about the second part of my A Week of Getaway vacation. I will continue with my Day 2 activities which I stopped halfway on my previous post. I really likes swimming at Hard Rock's pool. I like the environment there as it's very relaxing. I feels like I'm at Bali having vacation. 

After coming back from Gurney Plaza, me and fatty planned to spend our time swimming again. The pool was crowded with adults and kids playing.  

Second day swimming: Sailor Theme
People commented that I look like a Little Sailor with this set of bikini on me. They like my bikini and ask where I bought it. I bought this set from a Facebook page seller :  Eternity House : Bikini Swimsuit

 Our drinks at the poolside bar

Picture taken at the poolside bar. Fish eye camera makes my face looks round. oppsss
But this camera can go underwater. So it's okay since it's waterproof 

I really can't stop taking selfie..  

 Beautiful view by the beach side. Sunset and horses and white sands.
This place is known as: Bora Bora By Sunset Bistro
  1. Address: 415 Jalan Batu Ferringhi, Batu Ferringhi, Pulau Pinang



 Romantic dinner by the beach side. Hawaii feel~

It's a nice and relaxing place for chilling up or having dinner




After dinner, we use trishaw back to our hotel instead of using the shuttle van provided by the hotel management.

 Another selfie

Coconut drink is a must when having dinner or chilling by the seaside bistro. 

There.. Night night




Day 3: Moving from Hard Rock Hotel → G Hotel

  1. G Hotel
  2. Address: Persiaran Gurney, Georgetown, 10250 Pulau Pinang

 G Hotel lobby entrance. The surrounding is so spacey and it looks grand. The environment is good and relaxing.

Dinner time!! We had our dinner at Gurney Drive Hawker Stalls. 

 Fried Chicken Skin

Coconut Drinks again..

 You won't believe it. This much only cost RM5.00

 Fried Kueh Tiaw. It's still not the best yet. Will post the real best Penang Fried Kueh Tiaw when i'm blogging about Georgetown

 Dumpling mee

 At Gurney Paragon. Finally I manage to took picture with Bumblebee. We need to spend at least RM200 in a single receipt to stand a chance to take picture with either Bumblebee or Optimus Prime. 

 We didn't know this place until we simply walk around Gurney Paragon and found out this. The environment is just like some old Chinese drama people where the ladies are wearing all those tight and sexy cheongsam. 


End of Day 3.. Blogging on Day 4 & 2 more days at Georgetown in my next blog.

A Week of Getaway !! Day 1 & Day 2

Went to Penang with dear during my semester break on July. My last trip to Penang was 18 years ago? Hahaha.. I know it seems very long. Penang is a very nice and relaxing place to visit. We plan to visit Penang again, maybe next year?


Day 1: Batu Ferringhi (Hard Rock Hotel)
  1. Address: 11100 Batu Ferringhi Beach, Penang

Our very first meal when we reach Penang. We had our lunch at Hard Rock Hotel at their newly open Cafe that was introduced by their staff when we first reach there.  

Selfie is a must!! :D

 Mango and strawberry lassi

 Pasta (I forgot what is the name of this dish)

 Their famous pizza... 

Seafood spaghetti 

After lunch, it's time for us to check into the room. The room was awesome and our room is Poolsidde Lagoon. Which means, our room is located next to the pool. We can just open our balcony door and jump into the pool. 

 Before playing in the pool, we planned to walk around outdoor and snap pictures

 Sun-bathing? 

 Our selfie again

 My own selfie before jumping into the pool. I was sitting outside my room's balcony. This was my first time wearing bikini in public areas. Last time I wouldn't dare myself to wear because I got no confidence in myself. But after trying my best to exercise to keep my body, I at least tried the first move to put on a bikini. And I make it.  

Muscle man in action :p


 After swimming & it's time to bath, getting ready for dinner at The Ship


 The Ship!!  We took Hard Rock hotel's shuttle van to reach this area. They provide free transport from the hotel to the night market area every 30 minutes. So it's quite convenient for us. 


 Watermelon juice

Seafood Platter  


Grilled Chicken

Fish & Chip



Night view of our hotel entrance 

Good Night! Looking forward for Day 2 :)



Day 2: 

Woke up early in the morning to have breakfast at the hotel. Hard Rock hotel is famous with 'White People' because since the day I arrived at Hard Rock, I sees many 'White People'. I guess they like the environment there. Back to breakfast... The hotel's breakfast is awesome with lots of choices. After breakfast, we took a cab to the Toy Museum and Butterfly park because at Batu Ferringhi is quite difficult to catch a bus. Maybe because we don't know what is the bus routine at that area. 

First destination: Toy Museum
 Super Mario


 Monster Inc

 Batman



 What are you doing boy? 
There are actually a lot of pictures besides all these, but I don't think I need to post all of it here. If you want to see the other pictures which I took at Toy Museum, can add me at Facebook to view my Penang trip photo album 


Second Destination: Butterfly Park




Finally I get the butterfly to come to me. I tried many times, but the butterfly tends to fly away after few seconds landing on my finger. Hmmm... Maybe my skin is not sweet, that's why butterfly don't like me. 


After that, we went to Gurney Plaza for lunch at Dragon-i
 Mine

His

This chicken taste good... It's cook with chinese wine

Winter melon soup

Xiao Long Bao

Fried fish. I forgot what's the name for this dish.

Will continue on with the Day 2 evening activities in the next blog post.
