KL - The long and winding road


Well actually the road was pretty straight but it took almost 5 hours by coach from KL to Penang. This was on an 'executive' coach which was pretty comfortable...apart from the rowdy party of 8 sitting at the back. Yes - it was a group of noisy Australian OAP's on vacation. Luckily, after an hour, it was noon thus was nap time, and soon they were fast asleep.

A quick mention of what the executive package gets you. Well it gets you a lounge area at the coach station and a cup of hot coffee to warm you up. It also gets you a pre-journey snack. I think they were deep fried (but now cold) curry puffs as they certainly had a bit of spice in them. The crispiness of the outer shell had also long since gone. Curry before a 5 hour coach trip with no 'facilities' on board? You've got to be kidding me...!!
