This 3D2N short trip is planned by my sister~
All i need to do is just to tell her what I wan to do and eat?
The most attract me of Penang, is the street ART~

Sad to say, this trip, I cannot as much as I can as I have hurt my back 1 week before the trip~
The pain is not really bearable and I could hardly walk~
Luckily, I recovered 70% before the trip~
All trip starts with meal @ the airport~

Cafe Interior~
The Cafe provide free WIFI~
But there is no network after connecting to it~
Seek help abt it, but they just say, type in the password and connect.
