Kuala Lumpur Photos
So you should comment on my previous posts, so I know people are reading them. Anyway, here are some new photos. My computer is dying, once again, so I am shipping it home soon. In about 12 hours we will be off to the airport to fly to India. Very exciting. I'll try to keep the blog updated as much as possible. I think India will be very hectic though, same with Morocco. So if you dont see a post within the next 20 days that is why.
So Kuala Lumpur...
After settling in, we wandered about the city. We saw the Petronas Twin Towers- some of the tallest buildings in the world. Insid there is a huge mall that sells only top designer clothes and such. It was scary. We went to KL tower and up to the 214 floor to see the view of the city, see the photos. We are staying on a Petaling street so from 10am-10pm we are getting hassled. The place we are staying in is really nice, for pretty cheap. As you can see in the photos it seems like people are everywhere, but at 5 the street is completely filled with stands of people selling,even more so than the photo shows. We went to Batu cave, where there is an Indian temple. The photos tell it all, but pretty much there is a temple at the bottom of the hill, then you go up 300 stairs to inside the cave where the temple continues. The monkeys harass you and steal, so you have to be on your toes. We were blessed numerous times for money, while in the temple. It is sad to see a very important temple turned into a commercial tourist trap, and worst yet I supported it! I have to admit it was interesting, but the whole area was built up for people like me. Other than shopping and sight seeing we dealt with logistical stuff. We are staying in China town and we discovered that there is only one bar- a reggae bar. Unfortunately, everyone smokes inside, so it is hard to breathe. So now we are sitting about to order our new favorite Malaysian dish, Tahau Sumbat, friend tofu with cabbage, lettuce and carrots and a sweet chili sauce. Oh yeah, this morning for breakfast we decided to wander around, we bought a peanut type pancake thing, delicious, 2 chinese donuts, a curry dumpling and, some soy sponge cake. It was very interesting and fun to try all these new things. Tonight we are going to some Saturday market and preparing for our early departure tomorrow. Hope all is well at home!
