Round Penang Island Trip

I used to be oblivious of what's at the other side of Penang island, the west coast that is. The most, I've only been to Balik Pulau for a floorball competition years ago, and perhaps some childhood memories of tagging along with my dad when he went to pay the quit-rent.

As a Penangite, its quite memalukan to have never step foot on some parts of Penang. But weeks ago, I finally had the chance to go for a round Penang Island trip. Now, I can proudly tell people that I've been around Penang Island before. Haha!

Journey started off from my house to Batu Maung. From there we, headed west to the quiet fishing village of Kampung Sungai Batu.

After which, we headed up to Gertak Sanggul before stopping by at Balik Pulau for their famous Asam Laksa and nugmeg juice.

Also saw this classic along the way. Cute isn't it? I want one too!

Then we stopped by the Tropical Fruit Farm near Teluk Bahang for some refreshing Fruit Ice or Ice Kacang.

And do remember to check out their toilet if ever you stop by the Fruit Farm!
