cruising around the island

congratulations to 4-time HD boy =) to celebrate, family went for a one day cruise around penang island (would have gone for a longer one if he could actually get time off work. lol)

the liner (if u can actually call it one) is really nth to shout about. there's absolutely nth to do coz it's solely meant for gambling. but ok i suppose... the company was great even if there wasn't much to do onboard. in the end, my siblings and i spent most our time playing big two in the bar.. listening to really bad karaoke-ing. or on the deck. on in the arcade playing photo hunt and some horse racing game. the photo hunt was really crappy. the screen's in really bad condition so it's really hard to see the differences in the photos. especially if it's the rotating photo or the symmetrical one O_o
they had an onboard movie theatre too.. the movie sucked but the seats made it all worthed it. seats were made of leather and really big.. had this leg rest and if u leaned back with enough force, the seat would lean back. omg, temporary bliss =) but unfortunately, the movie really sucked. they got this really pathetic version of x3 and started playing the movie halfway thru. and they cut off the last part of the movie -_-"
the buffet provided was pretty good. except it was like totally impossible to get dessert. seems ppl who board the ship are very kiasu. the minute dessert was served, could actually see ppl running off with plates of cakes -_-" but otherwise, food was good.
anyway, we all got back, juz in time for the world cup match (world cup fever has inflicted my family bigtime *grin*) posted some photos from the trip but it's only a small portion of the actualy amount of photos taken (4 cameras = a lot a lot of photos) enjoy =)
