    Very interesting. I am staying in one of the hotels along Jalan Penang. Hope I can find the flea market. My hubby normally do not read blogs but he enjoyed looking at your post on Penang. :) Going there tomorrow. Been more than 14 or 15 years since we visited Penang but had always been staying at Batu Ferringhi.

    sekitar tahun 1980-an BR tinggal di penang (beach street) dan rope walk(asal) selalu menjadi kunjungan.

    dipindahkan atas sbb2 keselamatan krn peniaga sebenar telah bercampur dgn peniaga brg2 curi.

    satu lagi tempat barangan antik di PP ialah di butterworth iaitu di taman selat. cuba mr thomas ke sana.

    thanks for the link..
