10-05-2018 Bong & His Singapore Trip - Part 1: Singapore & Singapore Sling

After 3 nights stay in Penang,

we went to my hometown,

Sungai Petani for 2 nights stay....

This is our first time

staying in a hotel

in Sungai Petani!

We stayed at 

Emarald Puteri Hotel

and paid about MYR 250 for a nice room

with nice view...

nice bed...

nice bathroom!

Lol

After 2 days in Sungai Petani,

we took flight from Penang to Singapore!

It was Arne's first time there....

We landed before 1pm,

so we took grab from airport to Sentosa

and it was rather cheap!

In just 30 minutes,

we already arrived at the Hard Rock Hotel!

I am sure it is one of the most expensive hotel

I have ever stayed in,

besides those 5 and 6 stars hotel

that I have stayed with while I was working with PETRONAS.

The room was of course

spacious...

with big bathroom

and nice view....

We spent less than 15 minutes in the hotel room,

then we were already excited about exploring Sentosa!!

We haven't even spent any time to figure out how the transport works

and even where to go....

The golf cart driver saw us wondering,

and we said we wanna go to the nearest metro station...

Tada!

He just asked us to hop on!

We were dropped at Imbiah

and we started walking around...

We walked around at the Festive Walk,

figured out where the Universal Studio is...

Well,

so many NOT ALLOWED,

but I guess it is soon to add 'not allowed to lie down'

Hehe!

We followed the sign,

and the next destination is to Vivo City to meet Denise...

We walked across the Sentosa Boardwalk

and it took less than 20 minutes for us to walk....

I think it is weird with all these

big ugly cargo thingy

right beside Sentosa,

but that's how it is.

We had a short walk

inside Vivo Mall

and then chose to stay outside...

with better view,

better atmosphere

and of course,

drinks :)

Of course Arne and Eirik

had to have Singapore Sling

while they were in Singapore!

To be continued...

XOXO

02-05-2018 Bong & His Penang Trip - Part 4: Teluk Bahang

The park itself

has so many butterflies

and it could fascinate you so much

until you could  spend hours

just taking pictures of them...

(OK, may be applicable to me only)

Lol!

This little cute creature

which I don't even know their name

but the way they greeted us

was just adorable!!!

The whole farm

does look like a Jurassic Park...

Imagine a film about butterfly monster is made here...

Lol!

OK. 

Butterfly monster sounds really lame...

After the outdoor butterfly farm,

then we went into the 'information center' kind of thing...

From how the butterflies transformation cycle to

butterfly related wedding? 

Lol!

After almost 2 hours,

we were then DONE with Entopia. 

We took a taxi

and went to Teluk Bahang.

We walked a bit,

then simply chose a restaurant

right beside the sea

for a simple lunch.

We ate at this restaurant named

Bora Bora

and the food was just so-so.

The nicest part,

of course is its atmosphere

and view~

That night,

we had a simple dinner at the food court,

then went to a nice coffee shop

at Nagora Square to chill out.

I still remember how shocked

the waitress was when she heard that

Eirik ordered beers

because it is really seldom that

someone goes there for drinking alcohol.

Lol!

The next day,

we checked out early

and went to the jetty early....

Took the ferry,

and went to Butterworth to be picked up by my parents....

That's all for our Penang 3 days trip.

XOXO
