We went on cruise to Port Klang and Penang.
Day 1: Embark
Had a quick snacks then changed for a swim... it was so crowded. I was so glad that Caylen conquer his fear for water slides. His swimming lessons sure help too..
After swimming, we hang around at the main deck. There was a welcome party for kids... the 4 boys participated and Ceyan won a small prize from the game.. Dinner was western food.
This round we converted the room into a 4 pax room. It was quite cool and comfortable.
Day 2: Disembark at Port Klang
We took grab from the port to a nearby mall for bf. Planned to go for some famous bkt but it was closed so we just went to Aeon shopping mall... worst part was all the restaurant were not open yet. We were atarving but had no choice but to wait. Lunch at a HK cafe, nothing fantastic. Proceed on to supermarket as there was nothing else to shop there too. Bought some drinks and tidbits back on cruise. Swimming again of course since we are back early. And dinner was Chinese buffet style. Had some gelato while enjoying the breeze too.
We also went for night show after dinner. The performance were great but Caylen slept more than half the show. He was asleep right after dinner. I had to carry him while watching the performance.
Day 3: Disembark at Penang
This was fun one. The scary part was when you walking to the main road from the port, there are plenty of car rental vendors snatching business. We still decided to take grab everywhere. They were all quite agreesive.
First stop was about food again. We went to the Dim Sum King place for bf. The food used to be so good when we last went but I think the standard did drop already. Next stop is the famous chendol but everyone was too full.. some took grab while the others walked. Walked a long way under the hot sun.
Then we split up, mummy, me, zw and caylen went for durian while the rest went for ghost museum and massage. We met zw disty at the durian place and he gave us a lift to the mall they are in. Caylen enjoyed his durian so much.
We rushed to buy some local goodies and grab back. It was such a mad rush because we need to Embark again before 4pm. Not enough time at Penang. There was a duty free shop just before the port Embark area. We thought of buying a wine to drink back on the ship. After we paid, right outside the shop. The custom guy stopped us saying that we can't bring onboard and so we demand a refund and there were some unhappiness and arguments before we finally got it. They should have told us that we can't bring onboard before we pay. That was a really bad experience.
Swimming again for us. And since it was a last night. We decided to go have some steamboat that is chargeable. Had some wine and everyone was happy. The steamboat was not cheap but food was quite good. Had dinner with the sea breeze and beautiful night scenery.
Day 4: Disembark the ship day. We went to have some bf before packing and wait for our turn to disembark. The disembarkment was bad. There was a long long queue in the ship and they even lead us to the theatre first. We need to wait there for some time before moving on again. It was tough for the old and young especially when we need to go up and down the stairs with luggages.
