... of just moving on and going from place to place every few day with a new place to discover each time is great. <br><br>Bye for now!!!<br><br>A few days later and we've seen lots of insects...flowers...and nature. We visited the tea plantations but the trecking didn't work out as it poured with rain, so we headed for the jungle in the World's largest rainforest the Taman Negara in Malaysia. But first some photos of the highlands...<br><br><br>

<br>As TP had managed to pick up a minor chest infection (not serious but causing a lot of coughing and restricting his breathing a bit), it didn&#8217;t seem such a good idea to go through with our plan to dive on the East coast of Malaysia. We therefore charted a bit of a route down the western side where we were already located in Georgetown. Visiting KL did not particularly appeal as it is a very modern city and we are already going to have to spend a short while in ...

... de hand zou lopen. Het regenwoud Taman Negara is voor de prijs van 1 ringgit of 0.25 cent op je eentje te verkennen en midden in de jungle zijn er verschillende grotten en hutten waar je als toerist in kan slapen. De meeste toersiten opteren echter voor een duur &#8220;all in junglepakket&#8221; wat inhoudt dat een gids meewandelt langs de nogthans duidelijk aangeduide paden. Ik informeerde in het toeristenbureau naar een mooie wandelroute en twas eigenlijk ...

... some of it, and did the odd catch here and there (when the feeder managed to aim the food correctly), but was only slightly enthusiastic, and only seemed to sit when prompted several times. The 3rd tiger, the dominant tiger, the one who had run up the pole to collect the first piece of meat, was less enthusiastic. He was a beast of a tiger, and really couldn't be bothered doing what the feeder was telling him to do, he was the dominant male, he could own the feeder if he wanted ...

... Taiping and Ipoh, our next destination, so we would have saved traveling time and money. A really big loud guy sat down on the bus not too far away from us, who seemed to shout at everyone, but not aggressively. The ticket man came up to us and asked where we were from, enquiring as to whether we were American or not. I said that I was from London, England. The big guy replied "Good, good! England good. Bush bad. Bush much fighting" he said as he gestured gun shooting ...

... is getting better. The next day after a late start we headed to the zoo where we spent a lazy afternoon wandering around. The day after we went to Bukit Merah where there is an Orang-utan sanctuary on the island. They take ...

... male traveller also looking for a room suggested we share a bed and promptly took off when I said he could keep it)! Sure enough there was a room free and that was good enough for me. Gobi, the hotel worker, showed me the tiny, dirty little room which, like the one I turned down in Georgetown, was the type of place you could imagine a backpacker being murdered in! It is pretty much summed up by my finding a used condom on the roof inches from my open window, which I pointed ...

... from the football results) drinking beer in a Chinese restaurant and watching the football with them. It makes me laugh, Malaysia seems to be filled with Manchester United supporters (much to Danny's distaste, for those who don't know Leeds fans hate Man United for some reason?). Hehe, even our plane was the 'official Manchester United' plane...great!! Met ...

... Jen to do all the heavy lifting. So instead of taking all the hikes we had planned (this region is well known for it's hiking trails) or visiting the Orang Asli (native village) which no doubt would have changed our experience of this region - we spent most of the time convalescing. Lucky for us our guest house (Father's) was a great place to do this. With it's cheap/speedy on-site internet, large social hall, and nice little café we didn't ...
