Christmas Eve WALKABOUT!

The weather was intermittent throughout the day. It cleared up somewhat in the evening but by the time we left the Green House it began to rain again. Thankfully we had acquired a couple of umbrellas earlier this morning from the Chowrasta morning market.

We walked out onto Lebuh Dickens then walked across Jalan Penang headed northeast till we reached the intersection with Lebuh Leith.

A few hundred meters later we had arrived at Red Garden Food Paradise. If not for the fact that our arrival yesterday was much delayed we would have had our dinner here then.

Later with our perut filled we decided to walk of the calories and went on a walkabout to Padang Kota Lama. We walked northeast along Lebuh Leith before continuing onto Jalan Sultan Ahmad Shah then onto Lebuh Farquhar.

We continued southeast along Lebuh Farquhar before turning left onto Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling then right into Lebuh Light.

We walked across the first pedestrian crossing we could find and then turned left onto Jalan Padang Kota Lama. We continued north till we reached the Esplanade Viewspot.

We walked east to its end then exited through Jalan Green Hall. We eventually ended up at Lebuh Light and walked across the same pedestrian crossing and turned left all the way to its end.

We then turned left onto Beach Street and headed southeast for quite a distance before turning right onto Lebuh Pasar. We reached its end and turned left onto Jalan Masjid Kapitan Keling before turning right onto Chulia Street.

Traffic was heavy here, so we darted left into Lorong Sekchuan then left onto Jalan Buckingham then eventually onto Lebuh Campbell.

We walked to its end, and here was where our DJI Pocket 2's battery ran out. We then stopped by 7-Eleven along Jalan Penang to get a large bottle of drinking water. We switched to the Lumix GX85 and walked across Jalan Penang onto Jalan Transfer then darted through a small lane that took us back to Lebuh Dickens.

We then walked across Jalan Transfer onto Lorong Popus and back to the Green House, which was precisely when the Lumix GX85's battery ran out as well.

We will be having our Christmas lunch at a favourite smoke house, so please stay tuned, and Merry Christmas everyone!
