Penang White Coffee

I usually prefer mine strong and black without sugar but if you ever get the chance try this out

Penang White Coffee

 

Somewhere between Butterworth and KL

We hit Parit Buntar where they always serve

Penang sweet white coffee

 

They also take on ice for the restaurant car

If I do not record my passing through

Who would ever know

You were the only reason for my brief visit

?

A train journey which sounds very interesting, a cup of sweet white coffee when you prefer black and then the mystery. I'm sure the train journey was for more than coffee and then there is famous question mark ending your poem. Always much to ponder when reading your lines Neville. I was right there with you, looking at the scenery through the window Never been to Thailand.

thanks Chris.. have done that 24 hr train journey twice now tis amazing.. am gonna post another one from that experience ....

[Chris Shaw]

I look forward to that. I am not nearly as well travelled as you, although I have been to China :)

[Neville]

China's nice too x

[Chris Shaw]

I worked there. I didn't like it. I felt the oppression and witnessed it first hand :( Couldn't wait to set foot again on English soil.

[Neville]

I only caught a glimpse.. may be going back some time next year for a proper look...

I went 20 years ago, just before they started on a massive development programme. I would imagine it has changed beyond all recognition. I had people staring at me in the street and some of the ladies touched my blonde hair. Hard to believe innit? I didn't see many Westerners there at all. A rare breed.

[Neville]

an amazing adventure tho...

[Chris Shaw]

Yep, it was. Made me appreciate good ole blighty I can tell ya:)

[Neville]

[Neville]

Great Neville. This oozes sweetness and you have drawn us in to your exotic world with a few well chosen words. You hint at another tale here that would be worth sharing! We have traveled through the tea plantations in Sri lanka by train several times which is very reminiscent.
All the best,
Alan

[Neville]

thank you for checking in my dear friend Alan.. a much appreciated visit.. just for you, I shall post another old one from the same train journey.. funny old world innit.. we traveled across Sri Lanka too but by coach.. we were at Bentota just a few days before the sunami hit.... and I've never been as scared as I was climbing down Sigiriya Mountain with my kids....Seasons Best mate to you and yours...
