Penang
Note to all local travelers: REFRAIN FROM entering Penang Island during a long weekend and month end. It is havoc. There are just too many cars (it is probably better to cycle or ride a motorbike) & leaving the island to KL is a huge hassle as traffic is super-heavy at literally every other exit: Changkat Jering, Menora Tunnel, Tapah, Simpang Pulai and Rawang.
We safely reached home at 8.16 pm just now after nearly 8 hours of driving. My butt went to sleep on the seat & I don't feel any blood moving in the area.
My two girls were on their best behaviour (80% of the time) and I am super grateful for it.
Penang is super fantastic otherwise :)
I had gone with the intention to face my demons & face it I did. I had let go of the memories of Penang where Mr Ex used to haunt with his Ex-Fiancee. We had also gone to Penang to 'revive the romance' (so to speak) but it fizzled.
Penang turned out (this time) to be a wonderful beautiful place with many great people. I have embraced the island now & the best people I know stay there. Moral of the story: SEE THE POSITIVES.
S is now in Perth golfing. Incidentally he arrived in Perth before I arrived in KL- his was a 6-hour journey. It is sweet of him to be messaging his photos & asking me how I'm doing (I know it is completely outside his comfort zone to be doing that). We'll continue this for a little while longer I think. Kinda nice to be missed by someone :)
