During the last school holidays, we spent one whole week in Penang.

My parents,
two sisters and I left Kuala Lumpur by car.

It was a long journey and so we started off at 6.00 a.m. and drove along quiet
roads. It was still dark and chilly. On the way, we passed rubber plantations and tin
mines. I was interested in the scenery as we study about these industries in our
Geography lessons in school.

Finally, we crossed over to Penang by ferry and reached our seaside bungalow at
Batu Ferringhi. I loved the blue sea with its gentle waves sparkling in the sun. The
coconut palms swayed gracefully in the breeze as though to welcome us. The sea
was so inviting that, before long, we changed into our swim-suits and jumped into
the cool water. I enjoyed swimming with my family.

We spent the whole week swimming, playing on the sandy beach and picking
pretty shells to take home besides catching tiny crabs. We also drove around the
island and visited tourist spots like the Snake Temple, the Pagoda and the Butterfly
Farm. I enjoyed the cable train ride up Penang Hill which I found
most fascinating. After an enjoyable week in Penang, we returned home.
