The cendul is a favourite Malaysian dessert. The Famous Penang Road Teochew cendul shop is a family business with a history that dates back to 1936. A must-visit destination for travelers to Penang!

Not sure if this is a hardware shop or coffee shop. It looks like a popular happy hour joint for pigeons.

Too tired to walk.

A rickshaw ride around the inner city of George Town.

George Town, the capital of Penang, is a city located on the north-east corner of Penang Island. The metropolitan area, with a combined population of more than 2.25 million, is the second largest in Malaysia. The inner city of George Town has a population of about 720,000 and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site recognised for its unique architectural and cultural townscape.

I have enjoyed exploring the city on foot. However, a rickshaw ride is a good alternative if your feet are tired.

125 KM more to Tawau town.

125 KM more to Tawau town.

125 KM to Tawau town, the last major one on this trunk road around the East Coast of Sabah.

Tawau is 540 KM (or 8 hours by road) from Kota Kinabalu on the West Coast. This was the 3rd leg of my excursion around Sabah, from Sandakan to Tawau (312 KM or 4.5 hours by road).

I much prefer the view from the comfort of a seat in the car. But the pillion rider had a much more exciting time on the back of the bike. Along the way, I enjoyed the visits to the various towns, sampled the food and sights, and relished the slices of life moments as they happened. Despite not having the motivation to bring along my camera, I have enjoyed taking photos with my cellphone.

Football night.

Rural town at the Malaysian-Thailand border. It has a duty-free zone which is probably its main attraction as a place of interest.
