Penang has long been on my travel list, a destination I wanted to explore. I was supposed to visit five years ago, but an unexpected incident just few days before the trip forced me to forgo. Five years later, I finally make that long-awaited trip to Penang.
While we were on the air nearing Penang, raindrops began to hit the plane window and heavy rain blurred the view entirely for awhile.
We landed at Penang International Airport at 3.35pm ahead of schedule and cleared the custom in 25 minutes.
We went to the pickup point and called for a Grab. The drive from the airport to our hotel in George Town took about 45 minutes due to some congestion on the narrow lanes and the fare was RM70 (or $23.33). We reached our hotel at 5pm.
The snacks I gotten from the supermarket might be able to find in Singapore, but they were definitely a bit cheaper here.
Here marked the end of day 1, hope for better weather tomorrow to outdoor exploration.
