... so good to be back in Penang after almost 20 years

It has been almost 20 years since we took a vacation in Penang. The last time was when the kids were little with Yew Kong's family. This time it was just the two of us with Dave's family. But the food is still as good ... especially the chendol along Penang Road, the Gurney Drive hawker center with all the local specialities. We even went up to Penang Hill (a day before the agung was there, there were people sprucing up the place for us!). It was a great 2 night/3 day break. Budget airline, budget hotel, budget food but all very enjoyable.
