I'm off to see the wizard

I'll need a vacation after this

Well I'm now in Batu Ferringhi, Penang, Malaysia as I'm sure you all know exactly where that is. Yesterday I spent the day around KL just relaxing and seeing more of the city and then this morning I checked out of my hotel and got on a bus to Penang. When I bought the ticket the lady told me that it would take 4 hrs to get here and that I would be dropped of at the bus station two minutes away from where I wanted to stay. Well first off the bus stopped when it got to Penang and it was defiantly not the right place and they made me switch buses and kept saying something to me but I had no idea what it was. Luckily there was a really nice guy on the bus who told me to sit beside him and explained what they were saying. I told him where I was supposed to be going and he told me to stay on this bus until it got to the main Georgetown bus stop and then I could catch another bus from there to Batu Ferringhi. I did and when I got to the bus stop it took me a few minutes to find the bus and when I did I got on and I talked to the driver. I showed him my map and pointed out where the place I wanted to stay was and he said no problem he'll tell me when to get out. Then we waited 30 mins before leaving the bus station and did I mention it was the crappiest bus and was sooo hot. Oh I almost forgot about the first bus that was supposed to take 4 hrs, it ended up being 6. So anyways the next bus took about an hour and half and the driver told me get out way to early. I had to walk another 20 mins with all my stuff to get to the place. So today was just a long crap day of stress. But once I got into my place I went out for dinner and had some nice Malaysian food and tomorrow I'm going to sit on the beach and not move inch, until I start to get burned and then I'll flip over! The plan is to head back into Thailand in the next few days and relax on a beach there before coming home. If the beach is nice here I might stay here a few days but the place has lots of mosquito's so I doubt I'll be staying long.
