Lepak @ Bukit Bendera

 Believe it or not? Dah berbelas tahun stay kat Penang, this was the first time we visited Bukit Bendera @ Penang Hill on 1 Muharram 1434. Sambut new year kat Bukit Bendera gitu..:-)

 Tu pun sebab nak bawak the princesses jalan-jalan. Asyik terperap je cuti sekolah. Initial plan nak ke Legoland rasanya tak jadi kut coz Hubby is busy. Masa sampai je, mak aii..ramainya manusia beratur nak beli tiket. Adalah sejam lebih Hubby beratur tengah- tengah panas terik tu just to buy the train tickets. The ticket price for 2 Adults + 3 kids was only RM19. Airis free je. Masa tu rasa macam nak cancel je naik train tu coz tak larat tunggu tengah panas terik dengan Airis yang tak sihat & cranky.

Welcome to Penang Hill!

 The train ride uphill was smooth. It only took around 5 minutes. Sampai je, terus mengadap bekal dulu. Lapar menunggu beli tiket..:D Then, baru jalan-jalan. We walked to the mosque. Menggigil lutut panjat bukit..hehe.. Nampak sangat tak fit! Masjid tu punya le kecik. Untuk ladies ada 1 saf je yang muat 6-7 orang. For men adalah 2 saf. Jenuh queue nak solat pulak. Tapi Alhamdulillah, masjid appropriately located. Kat atas sekali. Sebelah bawah sikit ada kuil & tokong.

Masjid Bukit Bendera yang comel

 After the princesses were let loose at the playground, we went for a buggy ride. RM30 for 20 min. Oklah. Boleh le tahu sejarah bukit bendera & tengok holiday homes orang2 kaya..:-) Our buggy driver tu memula ingatkan malaysian, bila dia cakap je..rupanya Bangla. Dah ronda-ronda sekitar bukit bendera tu, we had a late lunch at Astana foodcourt. Food price is a bit pricey compared to other parts of Penang. Yang tak bestnya, food kat second level while drinks kat 3rd level which was inconvenient. Kat bawah sekali ada Owl museum. Free je untuk kids below 12 y.o. Entrance fee untuk adult is RM10. Since kitaorang malas nak temankan the princesse turun dengan Airis yang demam, tak tau le apa ada dalam museum tu.

We went down around 4pm. Nasib turun awal coz the next day we read news that people got stranded up to 4 hours after 7pm because the train broke down.
