A short 'getaway' [Part 5]

It's Sunday morning, 22nd August....... with a good night sleep we all wake up feeling fresh and after our morning shower we went down to have our breakfast which is provided for in the hotel. After breakfast we went back to our hotel room to get our luggages and straight to the lobby for checking out, as we do not intend to waste time coming back.

Our plan is to visit the Kek Lok Si Temple, which is a must-visit place if we are in Penang!!!




We then purchase tickets for the ride on the Inclined Lift to the bronze Kuan Yin Statue........



The scenery and views surrounding the Kuan Yin Statue are really breath taking........ The twelve Chinese Zodiac animal statues are being displayed along the pathway to this temple (below left).


After completing our rounds throughout this temple, we decided to have our lunch and head on back to the mainland of Penang, this time taking the ferry instead of the Penang Bridge.


Alex and Karen take turns in the driving as we journeyed back to Kuala Lumpur. Though the journey is long but we get to see more places through this road-trips holiday.
