Penang Here We come!

It was 'blue skies and everything nice' when we started our journey from Ipoh to Penang.

The journey of 159km will take us about 2 hrs.

We are travelling along the 800m long Menora Tunnel near Jelapang. It was the longest highway tunnel in Malaysia when it was completed.

While hubby was busy driving on the road, we got to enjoy the scenic views along the expressway. When he got tired and stiff, our DDS (darling daughter and son) provided some relief with their shoulder and neck massages. But actually, most of the time, they were fast asleep!

We are crossing the Perak River along the 300m long Sultan Azlan Shah Bridge. This is the longest bridge on the PLUS highway.

Crossing the Perak River.

Our very own Hutan Hujan Khatulistiwa or Tropical Equatorial Rainforest. Here we are 5 km from Kuala Kangsar town, the royal town of Perak state.

All photos are taken from a moving car by the co-pilot who helped in the navigation.
