    Enjoyed an interesting guided tour of a number of places in Georgetown, Malaysia. Visited the Chew Jetty (a group of shops & small houses on stilts on the waterfront,) the beautiful Sleeping Buddha temple, Street Art street, Little India (which sold the most beautiful silk clothing & fabrics) &, finally, the Coffee Tree Shop where we sampled coffee & chocolates. Yummmm…… 😋 Driver picked us up on time at our hotel, drove us from one spot to another & returned us to our hotel. Polite, friendly driver. 👍
