Georgetown I: Day #14 - 15

Georgetown is like a mini Hong Kong. Tall buildings and wealthy people unlike the rest of Malaysia outside KL.  I wasn't expecting it to be as built up as it was. In fact it seems to be growing quite fast with plans to build a train in the coming year. We had barely missed the one day a year where you can bike across the bridge. Dang the luck. Also, the traffic and drivers seemed a tad less courteous than we have been experiencing. Plus, loads of expats live here. The worst. 

I'm looking forward to taking a breather. 

We're waiting till the light turns green. Sweetest children.
Just indulge with me in the colorful buildings.

Green mosque!

And a pointy mosque.

2nd best soft play we've found. This even featured huge Lego blocks that I want. 

What is that in the middle? A mix of a hand cart and bicycle?

We barely made it in time!!

The way to get around with the kids on foot.

This Hawkers was so good we ate here two nights in a row.

The Bean likes to put her shoes inside Mama's. Cute little OCD girl.

Made it to church! 

Look at this rich Buddhist temple.

I had to give Domino's a second chance to redeem itself from the lackluster performance we had in KL. This was an improvement from the last but still a disappointment overall. 

Love meeting my heroes irl. Optimus Prime.

Can't forget Bumblebee.

These mosques are getting decadent. 

Between the fence posts you can see the rich tombs of the dead.

We're on our way to the most impressive Buddhist temple ever.

The White Dragon is feeling right at home.

You could use this as one of your IG backgrounds when you're asking/answering silly questions on your Stories. 

Rich.

Confucius said this one.

I love this.

He's in his element.

And people have the audacity to hate religion.

My students were confused why they had swastikas on them.

The Chinese love gold. 

Giant Buddha. 

They like to play.

I love that scrunched up face when she looks at something. 

I want more kids. There I said it.

One of the many gift shops inside. 

Pagodas (center) are my favorite. 

Real monks coming towards us. 

She likes going downhill.

The next dozen pics are at the upside museum. So much fun!

















Too much fun!
