I’ve already mentioned that I was staying in Glow Hotel, Penang during my trip, so here are some shots of the room I stayed on my first night. Checked into the hotel then we proceeded to touristy activities (mural hunting & attending a cosplay event)
On the next day (Day 2 @ Penang) we headed to Swettenham Pier to board the cruise.
Look who’s playing hide and seek? haha! Personally, I thought the ship looked huge from outside. Though it didn’t take long to get one from the first end to the other end when you’re inside.
I’m sure this would be something like the lobby? Plus there’s also a 24hr(if I’m not mistaken) coffee stand if you ever need any refreshments while enjoying live performances or just chilling with your tablets/books.
This is also where the reception & shore excursion counters are located at.
After boarding the ship, settling down and all, we had a safety practice (is that it?) where we learned how to put on our life jackets, what should we do when any misfortunes happen while you’re on board.
Soon after that, the ship’s welcome party begins at the top deck with dance performances and buffet!
Also, we got to see the sunset (and sunrise for several days haha) One thing I really love is sky photography, it’s like something I’m obsessed with, clouds. I can stare at them all day long.
After dinner, we went to the Stardust Lounge (a gathering place for almost every activity) to catch one of the on board shows.
You know, back in my primary school, there’s a magician that would drop by EVERY children’s day to perform. When you’re in primary 1-4 you’d find it cool, though, don’t you find it odd…when you reach primary 5&6, enjoying the show actually makes you uncool. I didn’t know why I lived with such thoughts, I still thought magic shows were cool..deep down. But you know what, I’ve rethought about it and really, I’ll never be too old to enjoy magic shows. That night while watching this show, I was really having fun, ever since I’ve graduated from my primary school 5 years ago, I’ve never got the chance to watch magic tricks appear live in front of me again. Richard Burr & Josette’s show really brought me some nostalgic feels plus some awestruck moments because obviously the magic performed that night was much better than the ones we got to watch in primary ahaha.
Actually, it’s exam period now and my progress is close to no where. It’s probably just me but I’m definitely taking a break from blogging for about 3 weeks? Each time I take a short absence, I’ll come back to my blog and think ‘why did I typed this way? Oh gosh, my england. What english am I typing?’ oh the joys of being an inexperience blog-writer. So in this upcoming 3 weeks, I’ll focus on my mid year and I guess figure out how to make my blog less cluttered looking.
