Day 6: 10 October 2019

Dear Ladies and Gents,

Today was business as usual at the Bethany Home. We started off by waking up (at a lovely, non-freezing temperature), ate our breakfast consisting of cereal and toast (unfortunately none of Bree’s milo), attended the devotion (hosted by Bree & Jorja based on Hope), went on our daily walk and participated in a highly intense aerobics routine (led by Mr Roberts) which was very tiring.

Double hand-holding is the best!

Already the best of friends

After aerobics was done, we headed back to the Headquarters to wait for our bus which would then take us to Penang. The bus arrived and after numerous power naps we arrived to the Park Royal Resort.

As we reached, we were all taken by surprise at the state of the resort! It was extremely elegant and “boujee” which were very happy about, and which we all found quite different in comparison to the Bethany Home. This made us feel grateful and appreciative. After going to our rooms, we came down to gather for lunch (as we skipped the half-way Maccas run, much to everyone’s disappointment). This was at around 3:00pm, hence we were all starved and starting to get “hangry”. As lunch arrived we all demolished our food and were getting ready to take a good swim in the pool.

Straight off the bus – This place is fancy!

We started off by going in the pool with slides (accompanied by many parents with their children) and enjoyed the rides. Soon we moved to the next pool to enjoy some leisurely swimming. After several rounds of ‘chameleon’ we chatted amongst ourselves and then got out to get ready for dinner. (But not before taking full advantage of the hot showers with incredible water pressure!)

Before dinner, we decided to go take pictures of the beautiful sunset. Then we walked towards the food court and were bombarded with ALL the choices of what type of dinner we could eat! The dinners that our group ate consisted of curries with naan and rice, chicken bread (sorry Sarah, cannot recall the spelling) and sizzlers.

What a stunning view!

So much food to choose from – We will be back tomorrow for sure!

We will be back tomorrow for more adventures and Penanigans (get it Penang + shenanigans?)

Now for our sign off:

We know after all the previous blogs, you are probably expecting a long, elaborate collection of adjectives to describe how great we are, but we don’t need to tell of our awesomeness (and also we want to go back to the pool and swim)

This is where you can find us 🙂
