Like what acidict said the largest cruise liner doing her maiden voyage into our waters.
Her next port of call is Klang after coming in from Phuket this morning.

What I can gather is leaving at 9pm to nite, but I will be there earlier to catch the golden hour, the evening light should catch her on the port side (ie left looking at the bow).

Since she is heading for Klang and if Penang bridge is tall enuf and the tide is high enuf, then shooting from Jerejak jetty or QBM with long lens also another great angle. Else she may just head north past B.Ferringi

Its heading toward B.Ferringi, impossible to heading toward Jerejak or QB. From my info, the cruise leave at the evening, probably around 4.30pm-7.00pm..

You wanna come down this evening ?

Can sms me your hp, don't have it in my hp database wor.

Looks we have to rush if what S3NSA said is correct. I only pull my info from the Penang websites, that is why I have to allow to the earlier times.

Since I promised Liren to take him to shoot the big mama, it will be straight after his school at 6.30pm -
if you see me racing up towards B.Ferringi you will know she has left Port Swettenham Pier liao.
