I hit up Penang, Malyasia for my first “border run” after I had been in Thailand for ninety days and my visa had expired. This island town is full of Indian expats and thus I got to eat some great chicken tandoori. Unlike Bangkok, though, there is no BTS here, so I did a lot of walking to occupy my two days in town while my new visa was being processed. Although my legs were tired at this point, it seemed my prospects of getting a lift from this cycle rickshaw were particularly dim.
