Penang Malaysia
So I got back from Penang today. I had a great vacation, but I can't really say I want to go to Penang again. For one thing, taking a taxi can be a very frustrating experience (much worse in Penang than in Kuala Lumpur). Their's lots of bargain shopping, but the same can be said for Kuala Lumpur or (I'm told) other places in Malaysia. The beaches were fine, but not great.
My wife and I still love Malaysia, and are planning a trip next summer. The plan will probably be to spend 3 days in Kuala Lumpur and three days in Langkawi, but we won't know for sure for a while.
