We have had a really nice couple of days in KL. We were delayed coming from India (of course) and didn't get to KL until 1.30am and ieshas poor uncles wife's, cousins husband (tenuous family link) had come to collect us.
We stayed at the house the girls ha one room and I had another. The girls panicked at first as they thought there was just a squatting toilet. It was lovely of them to let us stay in their family farm where 4 generations of the same family were living. We were a 25 minute train journey out of KL which was fine. On the first day ieshas uncles wifes cousins husband drove us around to a few cool places such as the Bati caves, dropped us at a mall to do some shopping and had nice lunch and took us to another mall which had a river running through it (see pics). Then in the evening they took us for some really really yummy street cafe food which was satay mutton fish and chicken and fried rice.
On the second day we got up early and went into kl. We saw the shopping malls the petronas towers, kl tower, Chinatown, and had a really really nice lunch and dinner in Bukit Bintang which was some of the best street food I've ever had. We had noodles, prawns, crab, ribs. So much nicer than the Chinese food at home. We got back really late (well 11.30) and everyone was in bed and a mad dog was barking at us. We phoned to wake them up to let us in and the aunti (massi) was do worried she had called England to the auntie 4 times. I guess it's the culture difference that unmarked girls wouldn't be out that late but it was really sweet and we felt awful. Next day we had a nice Indian breakfast and got on the train to Singapore which is a place I absolutely love have had a nice dinner and are in our expensive hostel in our tiny but private room. It is very ££££ here.
