@ Penang Hill - Part 2

It rained on our way up, it rained when we were up there and it was still raining on our way down. It was cold and wet but lovely nonetheless. In the past, I often come up here during rainy seasons. I remember once the mist was so thick I could barely see ten feet ahead.

@ Penang Hill - Part 1

It has been almost four years since I set foot on the summit. This trip was rather impromptu and brief but enjoyable nonetheless. There are much fond memories that I have of this place. I even remember my first trip with my family way back in the mid 70's. I was still a small boy back then. It is interesting to note that I have recollections from my childhood years as early as three years old but I couldn't even remember what I did last week. Sigh! A sign that age is catching up?
Well, enough of rantings. Here are some shots from my recent rendezvous. I have processed this batch with an old photo treatment just to give it a touch of nostalgia.

It started to pour as the tram journeyed upwards.
