Kuala Lumpur


Our last day of the holiday was spent using the last hours of the Hop On Hop Off ticket. We caught the bus to China Town and had a lovely time looking around there. We had to laugh at one Aus couple who took a look at the place and decided not to get off the bus!

We got home round 2.30 so Russ headed down to the the pool while I decided to stay inside in the aircon. It's quite a bit hotter here than Langkawi and I needed a rest after all the walking over the last two days.

KL is great with its mix of old colonial buildings, huge modern sky scrapers, ethnic areas and great shopping and food. It’s so much cleaner than Bangkok and I find it more interesting than Tokyo. I wish we had an extra night or two so we hadn't had to pack so much into our two days. e liked to take a tour out of the city to have a look. I asked for our hotel to be situated near cheap eateries and shopping malls and I don't think it could have been better placed for those.
