Kuala Lumpur's chaos has been magnified by the 11 preceding days in Singapore. We arrived on the 16th November to be greeted by a traffic jam which caused up to arrive at our Bukit Bintang hotel 3 hours after landing at Kuala Lumpur Airport. I wasn't worried about the traffic initially because I thought our tickets where for the train as per my …

It was quite an exhausting bunch of flights to get to Kuala Lumpur (KL). I had an 8 hour layover in Hong Kong, then finally arrived to the Malaysian capital city of KL. I took the KL express train to sentral station. From sentral station, I got a taxi to my hostel of the reggae mansion. It was a very nice place to stay and very clean, but had a …

Another overnight train ride and I was back in Kuala Lumpur for about 16 hours. This gave me time to show Danielle the cosmopolitan city in the heart of Muslim country. We did the Petronas Twin Towers and found out unfortunately the skybridge was closed for repairs so we wouldn't be able to go up that day. But we made the most of it and took some …

In the morning I wandered through Chinatown and then to Central Market again for lunch and a henna tattoo. For lunch I ate at the Rainforest Cafe, a bit more expensive than the day before's lunch. I had nachos and 2 beers for $12. Inside I got a henna tattoo and I have to say its the worse one I've ever seen or had. I took a long walk to Bukit …

I started out in the morning for FRIM and Batu Caves. The local bus was pretty dirty but only cost about $0.50. I had to take a taxi to FRIM from the caves which I had to haggle a bit and it was about $5. When I started to walk through the forest to the canopy walk I met an older Chinese man who I spent the rest of the walk with. On the way we met …

Day 7- 17th October

Our third day in KL and we hadn't even explored the city as we had spent the last two days exploring Melaka & Kuala Selangor. So we decided to spend the day enjoying the sights and sounds of KL.
Compared to the relative peace and calm of Penang, KL was noisy and crowded. It felt like a concrete jungle with …
