Bukit Merdeka / Penang Hill

Photobucket - Video and Image HostingIt's Saturday!!! and bear made it... he finished his work on time so that we can travel a bit to penang island before leave penang and back to kuala lumpur... at first i tought we will tour around the island but bear wanted to see bukit bendera so badly. Therefore, we did not have much time to go around the island since need to leave at least by 3 o'clock so that i can still watch the triangle series on star movie... :D Right after bear mobile was full with gas and i got my map we drove penang island!! there were 2 ways to get there, the first is by the Penang Bridge and the second one is by ferry from Butterworth... bear wanted to experience both... so we decided to take the ferry first and gp back thru the bridge... we paid RM3 for the car to go accross to the island.. it took us abt 30mnt and then we drove straight to bukit bendera.. following the map we took Jl. Datok Keramat then straight to Jl. Air Itam then Bukit bendera sign board showed us the way... dan sampailah kami berdua di Penang Hill...

there's no special parking spot there... when me made a u turn to find a parking space then there was a chinese guy on a motorcyle called us and tried to show us a safe parking place for our car.. uhmmm berasa sedikit curiga tapi klo liat2 semua tempat parkir yg ada penuh ya udah lah kita ikutin aja... mmg harus jalan kaki agak jauh dari tempat tujuan tapi keliatannya aman karna di parkir di kawasan perumahan yg dijaga... bayar RM3 trus kita masuk ke dalem areal bukit merdeka... since bear wanted to go up there, he lined up to buy d train ticket and we got ours for the 12.45 ride...Since there was still 1 hour to go so we took our lunch first. Actually it was bear's lunch.. i only had a laici drink.. after a few photo shots here and there finally our time came. we headed to the train and it climbed abt 701m above sea level...
