Another business trip done during fasting month. This time was for ASEAN O.R. Nurse conference.
I'm glad the location was in Penang, Malaysia. So early breakfast for our fasting was not a problem. The hotel provided the breakfast at the restaurant.
We stayed at BayView hotel, Penang
We flew on Air Asia.. I was the first in our group to arrive at Soekarno-Hatta Airport, but alas! I was the last person boarded, because lots of our nurses moved soooooo slow :(
The first day was a free day for us, because we arrived very early in Penang.

A small Malaysian-Thai community lives around this temple. Right opposite Wat Chayamangkalaram is the Dharmikarama Burmese Temple.

We had our dinner and fasting break together with other contingent outdoor, at the back of hotel. It was very nice. To spend time before Maghrib, we can get Henna painting.
