Holiday

We have just come back from a brilliant two weeks in Singapore and Penang in Malaysia.  I had great fun at Universal Studios in Singapore.  The best bit was the Madagascar Ride and the Jurassic Park Wild Water ride.  Best of all about Singapore though was the soap making course which mum and I did and the sushi train which was based on the 'bullet' train and visited you individually.

Penang was great, especially the bike riding activity where mum and dad weaved their way through the traffic whilst I was ferried around by an 83 year old trishaw driver, Uncle Lo.  I also love the chocolate and coffee museum where we all indulged in real chocolate.

Mum and dad's favourite bit was the hotel in Penang.  The Eastern and Oriental Hotel is an old colonial hotel with a modern annexe, where we stayed.   It was built in the old style and the views across the bay and straits was brilliant, especially from the infinity pool on the sixth floor.  Best of all though was the service where we were treated like royalty.  Definitely one of the best, if not the best, hotels we have ever stayed in.
