9th June

woke up around 9 plus. had a hard time finding a place to have breakfast! all the shops were closed lah. finally found a prata shop! luckily the prata was really nice and crispy.

right after that, we set off to take 402 again to Penang Hill. (the bus takes really long to come.) anw, they still use bus tickets like those at the last row below. i know it takes you 1.50ringget for you to travel from the bus interchange at Komtar to Penang Hill! :D

bus tickets

we reached at approx. 10.45 and managed to get the tickets for the 1.30pm ride up the hill.
on the way to penang hill, the sign 'bat's cave tua pek gong temple' intrigued us. so while waiting for time to pass, we walked there to find out what it is.

bats cave tua pek kong temple

THERE REALLY WAS A BAT'S CAVE INSIDE!!! N THERE REALLY WERE BATS. i thought maybe they just wanted to have a fancy name. ok, so quite interesting. i dont think singapore has one.

after visiting the temple, we still had to wait for a long time for our train!!! which totally sucked lah! cos it was SO HOT AND BORING. n i will tell you why it was seriously NOT worth the wait. -.- the thing below is the train we were waiting for.


the train has abt 4 sections for passengers. there are only limited seats and the rests would have to stand. there's nothing wrong about that. but it was so stuffy and squeezy inside! midway up the hill. we were supposed to switch over to take another train. but there were no announcements or whatsoever to inform you lah. -.- so my mum n i were lost for a moment. if you think singaporeans are kiasu. oh, you're really wrong. the people there immediately rushed over to grab seats ok! and they kept PUSHING n PULLING me. i mean im fine with that, but they dont bother to say 'excuse me' n stuff. omg! i was really pissed. n partly because i didnt even want to go to penang hill in the first place!

when we reached there. the only consoling thing was that it was cooling and there was quite a nice view. other then that, there wasnt anything much to do. unless u want to go n eat, get a henna done, stay in a hotel up there n stuff.

i can't say i regretted going up there. cos if i didnt i wouldnt know what there is. but i will NEVER want to go there again! (at least for now)

after all that irritating squeezing n all (i hate crowds). thank god my mum said she's tired too and we'll go catch a movie. guess what we watched!!!!

WE WATCHED HANNAH MONTANA!!! :D:D n each ticket is 6RM!!!
OMG. LOL. if u havent watched, U SHOULD. OMG. SO NICE. HAHAHA.
i still think she's damn pretty!

n then at the end of the day. same lah. we met my dad n had dinner.
