Our tour of Malaysia is over and we’re spending today flying from Kuala Lumpur to Manila, Philippines. Since we have a 6-hour scheduled layover in Manila, we’re going to make the most of the airport amenities, but since we have to exit the secure area and recheck our bags anyway, we might take advantage of a special opportunity that presents.

Our journey by train around Malaysia continues as we’ve left Ipoh and arrived for a few days on the island of Penang. Today, we’re starting off by exploring the iconic sites and bites in and around the UNESCO world heritage site of George Town, then heading to the legendary night market that’s just minutes away from our resort.
