Swim, Bike, Run and Eat

Not particularly in that order.

Swim
Hah. Not me. Bertuah. The kids. We went on a short holiday in a resort by the beach in Penang. At first I wanted to expose them to mandi laut. But the beach wasn't the way I pictured in my mind. The water was murky and the waves were crazy. So we went to plan B.


 Yup, clothes and all. No worries, everybody there jumped in the pool like this. 
Cool.

Bike
Again, not me. Just saw the guys from the Interstate Ride passing by my kampung before we went for our Penang trip. I even rolled down my car window and went , " Yay, Interstate!" to one of the solo riders, who looked at me like I'm a loony bin.
Yay, Interstate. ( Takat yay je la, nak join kirim salam.)

Run
Me. Me. Usual story about running. Bla bla bla. 
Building up my mileage for SCKLM. Trying to reach a certain goal. Am really worried that my training won't be enough. Last Saturday baru buat 8 miles. Ni dah masuk May. Sempat ke ni? Hoih.

Eat
Haa.. yang ni paling best. Bes ooo makan.
We googled some recommended places to eat in Penang. Yo yo je. There was this website about great eating places in Penang. Kami pun bulat-bulat la percaya.
For dinner we went to this mee place. Website gave them 9/10 in flavor. Their specialty  was mee kuah ayam. So we ordered that along with mee goreng ayam and mee goreng extra pedas.
But it's either orang buat website tu tak reti rasa makanan, or they were out of cili boh, or they changed their cook. 
Tak. Sedap.Pun.
Malas la nak boh nama kedai apa sebab pakcik and makcik jaga kedai tu sangat baik.
Eleh, tak sedap pun abis jugak. Choih.

Tak puas hati punya pasal, we went to another place this website recommended. Konon best nasi lemak ayam in Penang, sanggup kami dinner 2 kali.
This one was a bit better. Tapi not the best in Penang definitely.  

Pembuat website tu kan, baik tutup je fooodie's blog dia tu. Tekak tak best langsung.

Pastu kan, we thought about having dinner the 3rd time later that night at Nasi Kandar Beratoq. But kesian the kids la, I heard that you have to put up with a long queue (hence the name) before you get your nasi kandar. Plus it opens a bit too late.
Next time, Gadget. Next time. 

The next day, we went out early to get our nasi kandar breakfast at Kampung Melayu. We felt a bit guilty watching Penang  runners doing their LSD loop near our resort. Rasa cam nak lari je.
Not.

 Sebab ni lagi best. Heh heh.

Ok, itu sudah crita basi. Today is already Thursday.
Back to square one.
