Field Trip to Penang (Fort Cornwallis)

By Mimi Say
Our children were so excited. They have been looking forward for this field trip weeks ago. They have relentlessly asked their mums when will their field trip be.
When the day eventually arrives, they were able to arrive at the kindergarten at 7:30 am. Some even arrived earlier than that.
When the bus arrived, they were requested to queue before boarding. They did just that!
More eagerness sets in as soon as they are at Penang Bridge. All eyes surveying the sea on both sides if the bridge. When caught in a mild traffic jam, they sighed,"When will we arrive?" Some questioned, "Why does it take so long?"
But, the moment we arrived at our first stop, their eyes were wide opened. They were so eager to get off the bus, but discipline reigned. They need to alight in an orderly manner.
Our first stop: Fort Cornwallis. We had a breakfast picnic. The children rushed to touch the ancient cannons. Most of them experienced the first time touching the cannons. Some are amazed at the massive size of the cannons.

Do enjoy our Wonderful journey to Penang.
