Penang Hill

Spent the morning in Georgetown and then went up Penang Hill in the afternoon on the Funicular (spelling?) Railway (see pic).

Georgetown hasn't got too much too it apart from good food! However, there is an impressive 19th Century Chinese Merchant's house which is very ornate and the migration history in the museum was interesting - its really ethnically multiucultural here.

Penang Hill provided some relief in the afternoon - much cooler up there and impressive views across to mainland Malaysia. Off to more hills tomorrow.....
