An hour's flight north takes me to Penang, and a quick cab from the airport takes me to the Cheong Fatt Tze mansion to check in: I am in the Hakka Room on the first floor of the old house, which is beautiful. So, checked in, I am shown to the room and a brief tour of the place, and I quickly freshen up before joining the hour long tour of the mansion, which is pretty interesting, even if the tour guide is a little abrupt: she was talking about some of the mansion’s history and two of the people on the tour started talking to each other, so she stopped her spiel and asked if they were interested in the tour or not! That told them. Not long after that, someone wandered through the group and she stopped him and snapped “excuse me, are you with us, excuse me?”
He was a guest...
