Grabbed an Earlier Flight.

Curse the expense, it is better to be safe and sure. Via the Internet Trish was able to check the departure times of the plane from Penang to KL for our scheduled flight.  As a result we have just jumped online and booked an early afternoon flight to KL. We forfeit our fares but they weren't expensive.

This will ensure we can make our overnight flight to Australia with heaps of time to spare. We both feel a little more comfortable now.

Last night we ate at the restaurant in the photo above. I guess the name is pronounced Du Nish and not Danish! We had a whole baked snapper. We were a little apprehensive as to what we might get and to ensure we had enough we ordered a garlic naan as well.

What a magnificent meal we enjoyed. 3 curries and a raiita came with it. As it was a Muslim restaurant beer was not available but the food itself was outstanding.  30 minutes later you could still enjoy the powerful flavours.

Rain clouds are still all about so it is going to be showery again.

The flight to KL is only a 9 track flight. I usually listen to music as we fly and on the trip frpm KL to here I only got through 9 tracks!

Most like my next post will be from home.

Overall we planned this trip well. 5 nights was ok in KL, 5 nights in Sri Lanka could have been cut to 4 and possibly a couple of extra nights in Penang would have been good. However the couple of wet days at the end made 5 nights OK.
