Anyway, here's what happened on that day...
I came to KL Sentral at around 7 am....then waited for the train that will bring me to Butterworth...
The train departed from KL Sentral at 9.30 am and was expected to arrive at Butterworth at 5.10 pm...
The train actually arrived at Butterworth at 4.50 pm, that means...20 minutes earlier than scheduled!
Here is the Butterworth railway station, er....the platform is ramshackled of course...
From there, i made my way to the ferry terminal, to board a ferry to Georgetown
This is the passageway from the railway station to the ferry terminal (the bus terminal is also located here!)
Here, this is the entrance to the ferry terminal, it costed me RM 1.20 to use the ferry service
This is the waiting hall for passengers
Then, i board the ferry...these are the views from the ferry, the first one, the view of Georgetown from the ferry was awesome and breathtaking!
The next one, ferry and the Penang bridge
The interior of the ferry
After i arrived at Georgetown, i took a taxi straight to Tune Hotel...ah, by the way, Penang's taxi do not use meter, so be prepared, haha...
I checked in, then i went for a short walk to Komtar to board a bus to Gurney
Heading to the Komtar bus terminal, on the left side, that is the Prangin Mall...
This is the Komtar bus terminal
This is the ticket of Rapid Penang (unlike Rapid KL, if you board Rapid Penang, you have to pay each time you board the bus)
The interior of the bus, it is a minibus, not a fullsized bus
Then, i stopped somewhere in Jalan Kelawei and walked to Gurney drive...
This is Gurney Plaza, one of the main shopping centres in Penang
The new wing of Gurney Plaza, it was opened recently

After being inside Gurney Plaza, i went to nearby hawker stalls not far from Gurney Plaza...
Ah, that's the end of the first trip of my trip...
Later, i will post more photos of my trip, so stay tuned!
