For Chinese New Year it was only fitting that we headed to a busy China town so we went North again up the coast to Penang island and Georgetown where we stayed just on the edge of China town in a lovely little guest house. Georgetown is massively populated and busy all day long, the peaceful serenity of some of the temples we visited was a welcome break
It wasn't long though before we were sucked back into chinatown and the chances to get more delicious nighttime food
As the preparations for CNY started to ramp up it gave us the oppurtunity to see some of the most lavish lion dancing we had seen, back street in china town on the night itself
The lion getting ready for the show
..and in full swing
With the finale of the dragon dance being the icing on the cake
Only a short trip to Penang just for the celebrations and then we were off to more peaceful surroundings
