So flew to KL at the start of the week then got the bus up to Penang, where I will stay for maybe 2 weeks, as I’m just relaxing this month before meeting my friend in singapore for Christmas. Until then Penang is my home, I’ve visited before and am a fan thanks to the huge amount of food on offer, all indian dishes in little india, malay food and tons of Chinese food, so a great range to choose from. This week I’ve had tandoori chicken, vegetable thalis, chicken rice to name a few, been running a couple of times to combat all the meals i have eaten.
Today I walked out of town to visit the Burmese and Thai Buddhist temples, the first housing a large standing buddha, then over the road a 30 meter long reclining buddha.

Above shows alms baskets which people purchase to donate to the monks (as monks do not ever take money only food and other donations)
