where we come from, there isn't a proper airport or railway station. neither do we have Swensen's nor TGIF.
so can you blame us when we got all excited over this...?
because i believe, inside all of us, the icecream-loving gene is dominant. so while the boy is yet to appreciate good ice-cream..
.......we chose 5 of our favourite flavours....
........yummy!
& to make the city-trip worthwhile, we had lunch at...
it's mostly burgers all around...
& they don't serve in small portions...
i settled for the 3-course meal.....with starter...
main course....
& dessert.....ooh, more ice cream!
a few observations made during this trip...
(1) penangites love to eat (not that you don't already know) - this restaurant was still full at 3pm!!
(2) penangites love coffee - there seemed to be a home-grown cafe at every nook & corner...
(3) clowns making balloons seemed to be a popular act for festive promotions...
one more thing, on the north-south highway the cops now place decoy cardboard pictures of themselves manning speed-trap cameras. they are located at the underpasses of km317.9 northbound & km287.2 southbound. believe me, they look real!
still, it can't be over-emphasised to drive carefully, kampung folks or otherwise.

i really didnt realise lor..

cham liao la..i dono how many saman's coming to my house already
Mich,
yes, the cardboard pictures were there, but i didn't notice any real policemen or any roadblocks on that day.
See the billboards at the bridge? Yours truly "owns" one of those. Oop.. it looks magnificent at night.
It was just like we don't have 7-Eleven here. When we went to KK, the children remembered the slruuuup.. drinks dispensed through the machine in 7-Eleven. Unfortunately, we went from store to store, each showed a sign "Out of order". Whether, sold out of order or machine out of order, we did not ask.
i didnt see any of them either..
i went back on 2rd and came back on the 25th...
crossing my fingers now...haha
Yan,
i wonder which billboard is yours??
my kids like Slurpie as well, but they rarely get that treat because i tell them it's just coloured sugar water - bad for the teeth.
Mich,
usually you get away if you don't exceed 120kmph, or speed on the slow lane because the cameras are invariably trained on vehicles speeding on the fast lane.
I love TGIF! Are those fried mozarella? :)
Fibrate,
absolutely right - you are obviously a regular patron at TGIF.
