Well now, definatly not at a bloody beach anymore!
Arrived last night and hit Chinatown to taste the delights of lamb satay and sizzling tofu. Gotta say I am loving the veggie options here more than the meat most times, maybe thats because ive spent half my time travelling witnessing animals being slaughtered infront of me then shoved in a curry for me to eat. Or maybe its because tofu here just tastes bloody delightful! Hit the Reggae bar afterwards for "ladies night" which appears to be every hour of every night, and for 10 ringgit of "house pour" and mixer, you cant go wrong (thats just under 2 pounds for my wee british people :))
Today has been a longgg day on foot, seeing the sights we took the train to KLCC and explored...the shops. I might i add its bloody torture when you realise Kuala Lumpur holds at least 2 Topshops here. Must. Not. Spend. On. Clothes. That. I. Cannot. Carry.
We visited the infamous twin towers for a few snapsnots and bumped into one of sians friends! Funny how we werent even going to come to Malaysia, and Sian didnt even know she was passing Malaysia, and yet somehow people meet on the other side of the world! I keep having dreams I'll bump into certain people abroad so its pretty strange when thats becomes a reality for someone else!
A couple more hours of walking brought us to Bintang walk where you guessed it...more shops. KL sure do love their designer labels here. 7 hours on foot, an aquariam visit, a crafts musuem and several snapshots later we decided to call it a day. Eager to try real Malaysian food we stopped for some street food were we tasted the delights of Roti Canai with chicken. Me oh My, mix some chinese and indian together and this countrys got some real taste sensations! Cannot wait to try more tomorrow if my western belly sees fit to :)
Tomorrow weve decided to grab a bus to Sunway Lagoon, for Malysians version of a theme park and other such delights. Weird feeling slightly westernised again. The Malaysians appear a lot friendlier than the Thais, probably because no ones tried to mug us off yet with dodgy ferrys and taxis but were only here for another 2 nights then its off to Singapore we go!
Short but sweet blog, hostels fairly nice and clean, staying with a few Finland girls who seem nice enough. Will blog when im in singapore no doubt xxx
