PENANG Day 3 │ ICT Mall • Lighthouse Cafe • Skin Nation Tattoo!

Final Tattoo!

I woke up at eight and continued working on our videos. Cat had her beauty sleep for the next two hours before hitting the shower at half past ten. We were out the door at fifteen past eleven.

We hailed a Grab car for a fare of RM8.00 (approximately USD/EUR2) to ICT Mall in search of earphones. After browsing a few stores we finally got a pair that was compatible with a Type-C port for RM29.00 (approximately USD7/EUR6).

I left my usual earphones behind and was in desperate need of one during my long session with MC of Skin Nation Tattoo later. After that we walked over to the food court on the fourth floor of 1st Avenue Mall, but nothing struck our fancy, so we hailed another Grab car for the same fare of RM8.00 (approximately USD/EUR2) to The Lighthouse Cafe. Five minutes later we arrived at 12:00pm and promptly ordered the:

  • Hainan Pork Chop
  • Hokkien Char 
  • Cold Plum Juice 
  • Coca-Cola 

for a grand total of only RM37.60 (approximately USD9/EUR8).

After lunch we walked across and made our way to Skin Nation Tattoo where I had an appointment with MC at 1:00pm.
We waited a while before being summoned by MC to come up to the studio. We parted ways here as Cat headed out to shop at Chowrasta Market and beyond.

This will be the last tattoo in a while, and it was only fitting that I got a crucifix. The stencil that MC eventually generated blew my mind, and he began work at two in the afternoon.

MC's masterpiece was complete a little over two hours later. This crucifix will be the last in the series of body art for me for a long while. 

Beginning with the Sakura by Victor of Guntur Tatu; then the Red Devil by MC; followed by the Garuda and the Jasmine by Indra; the dreamcatcher by Nan and finally today's Crucifix again by MC I will call it a wrap!

I then paid MC his dues and arranged to meet Cat at Chowrasta Market just a short walk away. From the Aunty at the Shin Huat stall we got:

  • 2 x 500g packets of pickled Papaya
  • 2 x 500g packets of pickled Green Mango
  • 1 x 500g packet of pickled Amra, also known as Hog Plum

for a total of RM41.00 (approximately USD/EUR9).

We then made our way back to the hotel. I was particularly knackered by the session with MC so will probably order in with the Grab food app.

Stay tuned as we wake up before the break of dawn to catch another Aeroline bus back to Kuala Lumpur!
