Grand Bluewave Hotel Shah Alam

In Kuala Lumpur.<br><br>Well it was a great day for flying, perfect weather. The morning started off with a mad dash around the house making sure that I had everything, and organising a taxi cause my housemate had a morning visit to the emergency room&#8230; Anyway, after a last minute decision to take my jacket, I was out the door and into the taxi. $35 dollars later, I was at the international terminal, clueless ...

... that day so we got some sleep then it was time to pack, check out and leave the island!! (we were going to anyway!)<br>So we got the last boat of the day (4pm) back to the mainland....<br><br>Had an absolute ball on Long Beach with my 3 latest travel buddies, we had so much fun..... and it was a beautiful place.... absolutely stunning sand, sea and snorkelling...... <br>Interesting place... reminded me of 4 thousand islands in Laos, where the locals really seem to dislike ...

... pastries and desserts as the locations at home. It is unbelievable and impossible to resist (my weakness is gelato - which they claim is 95% fat free but I don't believe them). <br>6. When entering the hostel, it is required to take off your shoes and leave them at the door (same with the last hostel we stayed at in KL). <br><br>Tomorrow I leave for Bali! Whitney's flight arrives two hours later than mine, so I'Il have some quality time in the airport. Can't wait!<br><br>

... for dinner, although I have no idea what they ordered since everything has fancy names, but enjoyed the meal. Got driven back to the hotel by a good friend. <br>Next day: Shopping shopping shopping at Midvalley and The Gardens. <br>What I really plan to do on my next trip in 2010 (yay yay!): Do a self-drive tour to the Elephant Sanctuary and Melaka... Here is a little map I've prepared to show the routes, hope it helps on your next trip to KL!<br><br ...

... br><br>Sunday is departure day, but our flights are not until 10PM. Two of my friends from H'bad left early as they were continuing on to Bali...the rest of us were all on the same flight back to India that evening. So we got up, checked out of the hotel and headed over to China town for some shopping and a bit of "pampering". The pampering was something that friends have recommended I do in KL...but not what you're ...

So a few weeks back I had just arrived in Kuala Lumpur and was staying in Butik Bantang where there are great restaurants and located in what is called the Golden Triangle. I was enjoying a nice glass of wine with some friends I had met at the hotel earlier in the evening when the table next to us came over for a quick chat...<br><br>The table next to us was made up of 3 Japanese girls that work here in the city of KL doing Engineering for the oilfields I believe ...

... What is interesting about this is that the cats were all maimed, paralyzed or lame due to human cruelty or just birth defects. The man's sole mission is to find and rescue stray and harmed cats and give them a safe home.. He has over 140 cats right now but he is so famous for his work that he has been on Fox News, CNBC, and plenty news stories are run about him. He also has a utube website where he shows you the animals etc. He only makes ...

... being seated near the front of the plane is one of the biggest pluses you could have since it means you get to be one of the first people in the front of the line. Customs went quick enough (not Singapore quick, but not Kuala Lumpur slow) and my visa was accepted immediately, even though they did give a second look to my flimsy water-damaged passport. I quickly found a driver to drive me back to Ubud where I would go. I wasn't sure if I was supposed to move to Klungkung that night or ...

... could fix a deck of cards, then mentioned a customer that said he would pay him five percent for dealing a game a couple of nights ago, but only paid one percent in the end. The dealer said he wanted to scam him. A few minutes later, the same businessman walks into the house for a home game with me! I left my wallet in the hostel just in case this was a scam, and alarm bells were ringing heavily at this point. The corollary of watching the film was ...

We went to James Bond Island on a long tail bond without any jacket at that time.The trip was very enjoying as the long tail boat passed a groto cave befor reaching the Island.The Thai called the island James Bond Island as the film " The man with the golden gun " was filmed there.The air there was fresh.
