Favorite thing: The flood (banjir) after heavy rains is one of the happiest memories of tropical areas. Penang's climate describes an equatorial one, a pleasant mix of warm, sunny days and occasional cooling rain storms, with August through November being the wettest months generally ...

Raindrops


Fondest memory: We all enjoyed a truly tropical storm with the flood afterwards. At some places the rainwater rose up to more then 1 metre. Special fact was the red colour of red earth of Penang. It's stunning! We splashed around, because the temperature isn't like in the Western countries. It still is hot! Boy, how a memorable Penang time we had!
