Malacca Overnight Getaway. Part 2

Now here's the part 2 of our weekend getaway in Malacca. We were rushing because we only have until 12 noon to enjoy Malacca. Our bus schedule going back to Singapore is at 12:30pm. We wake up early to visit some of the historical places nearby. Though it's a quick half day trip, we enjoyed it! We had a quick photo opt and attended church in Christ Church before heading back to Singapore. Here are the photos. Enjoy!

The YOLO pose

Penang Island Malaysia

Now let's go to the other part of Malaysia. Penang Island! Ok, according to Wikipedia, 

"Penang Island is part of the state of Penang, on the west coat of Peninsular Malaysia. It was named Prince of Wales Island when it was occupied by the British East India Company on 12 August 1786, in honour of the birthday of the Prince of Wales, later King George IV. The capital, George Town, was named after the reigning King George III.

Malaysia has another island called "Pulau Pinang", which is a diving site located in South China Sea and part of the Johor Marine Park, which consists of a group of islands: Pulau Aur, Pulau Dayang, Pulau Lang, and Pulau Pinang itself."

Penang Island is about 8 hours long drive from Singapore or 1 hour flight via airbus. Of course we chose the airbus (Airasia) hehe. 
I met my former colleagues in Penang, They all came in the Philippines! We stayed at our friend's condo - SunnyVille Condo (saving money? hehehe). Thanks OJ and Don. I really enjoyed this trip! Everybody's game and energetic. Guess what? We shoot this funny video with the music of One Direction's hit "What makes you beautiful" haha. Later i will post it. hehe. We really had fun in Penang! No dull moments. I hope there  will be a part 2 soon hehe. Here are some of the photos shot in Penang!
