Walking about George Town

Two nights and days I’ve been walking around in my neighborhood. My experience George Town so far as cozy and idyllic with a mix of liveliness, especially in the evenings it is lively without being cantankerous. Down here, too, they are preparing for Christmas. Christmas ornaments are often seen, as are Christmas trees. George town is  a mix of SouthEast Asia, India and China.

While I walking about I popped in to a tourist agency to ask for and about  Penag Hill and how to get there. Earlier I’ve seen some brochure and advertising for the place.

– Take Bus 204 from ferryboat pier

 – Departure every 20 minutes and the coast is 2 Ringgit.

 – The bus stops close to the entrance to funicular railway up to Penang Hill

I also get a brochure, The Habitat. that dscibes me what they offer me up there. Then back up town with small steps.

One thing I have thought about when I have been in these southeastern countries and that is that you almost never see that anything is handicap adapted – It can be easy to be disabled down here. High thresholds and curbs everywhere. Maybe that’s why I almost never see anyone in a wheelchair outside. Quite sad.

My dinner I bought at a fast food stand few blocks from my hotel. I got everything in a plastic bag wrapped with newspaper .

See Yeah tomorrow from The Habit at Pingang Hill
