I was on a flight back to Singapore from Penang early this month. I deliberately chose a window seat, hoping to enjoy the 1.5-hour flight. It has been always a hobby of mine to identify landmarks, towns and structures from 22,000 ft.
The plan flew southwards above the west coast of the peninsular, and made a sharp left turn when approaching the straits of Johor (between Singapore), flew above my home town of Skudai towards the east to the South China Sea, before making a U-turn into Changi Airport.
It was a wonderful flight, and for once, I didn't sleep during a flight.

| The Penang 2nd Bridge, 24 km, and quite under-utilized |
 |
| Jimah Power Station (2 blocks) |
 |
| The jetty and coal unloading system |
 |
| Downtown Melaka |
 |
| An unidentifiable power station - It isn't Kapar nor Tuanku Jaafar. Anyone has the answer? |
 |
| Iskandar Putri, or formerly known as Gelang Patah - Tun Aminah will be on the bottom left corner |
 |
| Alas, the busiest international border in the world - The Causeway, where some 200,000 people cross everyday |
 |
| Senoko Power Station |
 |
| Jambatan Sungai Johor (connecting Pasir Gudang to Pengerang) |
 |
| Tanjung Langsat industrial site (Malayan Sugar with blue/white roofs) |
 |
| Jetty at Pengerang |
 |
| Singapore (probably Tampines flats) on the foreground |
 |
The plane enters Changi Airport, passing by Changi Village, where you find the best nasi lemak on the island

I am always thankful for growing up and living in these countries.
