Selamat Datang, tervetuloa lukemaan paivitettya blogia ;) Kuala Lumpurista siis jatketaan. Muistin virkistamiseks, Penangista oli tarkotus menna Pangkor-saarelle ja Camerong Highlandiin mutta Kiinalaisen uuden vuoden takia suunnitelmat muuttu. Meilla oli vaikeuksia loytaa vapaita busseja ja hotelleja joten paadyttiin suosiolla tassa vaiheessa Ku...

Surprisingly the flight from Cambodia to KL (kuala Lumpur) malaysia was one of the best flights I've ever taken, perfect temperature, no noise in the airports, great plane, roomy. The KL airport was great too, took about 10 minutes to get our bags and go through customs and find cheap transportation downtown. After a long night, we did the sites...

Kuala lumpar. Our 2 days of relaxation - thanks to all the Smyths. We decided to fly from Phuket to kuala Lumpar instead of busing it for 24 hours, a good decision. I reckon! The Renaissance Hotel was a big hit. Tallest hotel I have ever stayed in, think it was 24 storeys in total. Had about 6 restaurants, cuisine from all around the world. We w...

Since we are leaving for Borneo tomorrow, and internet access from here on out is questionable (how sad, I know), I thought I'd update one more time. There are a lot of Coffee Beans in Malaysia, and apparently all over Asia in general. It strikes me as odd that there are so many of them here, and none in norcal. (Of course, lack of Coffee Beans ...

English - After a fantastic few days with Mum and Dad we headed for Malaysia on the over night train. We stayed in KL only for a couple of days which gave us just enough time to grab some food and visit the Petronas Towers - the tallest buildings in the world! Next stop - Taman Negara the world's oldest rainforest. Czech - Nocnim vlakem jsme pok...

It was always my dream to go to Kuala Lumpur to see the Petronas Towers, at that time the highest skyscrapers in the world.....and they really were impressive. But to be honest 2 days in KL would also have been enough. I went to the bird park, to the butterfly park (both really nice) and every day three times to the Petronas Towers. There is als...

Have managed to make my way to KL now. Not a bad sort of city but I think I am still a bit in slow mode from the island. The buildings here are pretty spectacular. Some really nice architecture, and they have a bit of a fascination with size. The Petronas Towers are here, and true to their reputation they are indeed tall. The world's tallest fla...

Had breakfast at the hotel and walked to the "Kuala Lumpur Tower", the world's 4:th tallest telecom tower. Paid 8 Ringit to go to the top. As it sits on a hill, you actually get a better view from there, than from the Petronas Towers. Strolled down to the Shang Ri La Hotell, as I had been told that the waitors got down on their knees when they s...
