Our Penang trip - Day 1

Thank God we managed to take a nap and woke up the next morning but still unable to recover our sleepless night. We heading to McDonald’s for breakfast not too far from our hotel. Guess what their breakfast hour is from 9am thru 11am and only open for business at 9am lol. Of course, no bacon though and as most of food are ‘Halal’ however they do have porridge with the sign shown local demand. Anyway, l notice that BJ Mall is getting crappy because the management did not maintain well.

Then we made a surprised visit to my sister home with their gifts. Of course, hang round there for a while then we towards Mom home in Balik Pulau located over the hill.

Wow my home town definately look different because there so many shop lots across the street and also there are traffic lights eveywhere. This is much better for sure but l still prefer my California life style! My bother got to 2 childrens now. Jeff/2years old and baby Jared of 9months old. Glad to see the house is clean as they also have Indonesian maid contract in house.
Mom prep lunch for us and the food that she cooked just great. Unfortunately, they they don’t have diet soda but beers thus we just drink that instead. The diet soda that call it as ‘Light’ instead of diet oh well

Pay a visit to Granny house and gave her the throw that she asked for. Hopefully it will keep her warm at night. Uhg she looks weak and lost weight too…
Then we swing by my aunt Lucy home too. And my aunt son-in law who from Utah also in town and hey it just perfect for my love because they can chat better without language barrier. Guess what, we notice there is a 7-Eleven store there and we stop by there and picked up a few bottles of Pepsi light. Though I still miss the diet Mountain-Dew.

Went to Church to picked up a bouquet of flowers for the next day prayer and also gave some donation. Then we are heading back to hotel. Uhg it is a long day especially with the humid environment. But we spent the day well as managed to covered lots of things.
