So your at Butterworth train station, if you have come down from Bangkok your going to be pretty desperate to use a toilet, don't worry it aint far to Georgetown now, keep to your left and avoid the taxi drivers, they want to drive you over the Penang bridge but your only a couple of hundred meters away from the ferry, go up onto the pedestrian bridge and follow the signs to the ferry, this area is all no smoking
There is a change counter where you can change up notes as you need 1.20Ringgit to go through the ferry barrier machine, you only pay to onto Penang Island, coming back is free whether you use the ferry or the bridge.
The cars and bikes stay downstairs, can't remember how much it costs to get your car across.

Each ferry has a bakers shop type thing on it, they sell good cakes and also soft drinks.
Coming up to Penang you are right near Komtar if you want to do some shopping.
