Thursday 29th May
SAM: We got up early, packed all our stuff and got down to the highlands main bus depot for 07:45 ready to leave the Cameron Highlands, and the cold, behind us. We spent 5 hours on a luxury air conditioned bus down to K.L, costing only 4 pound each :). On arrival in K.L we had been reccomended to stay at Maratians guest house but found this to be full. So we ended up staying in the Wheelers guest house on the outskirts of china town. After settling into our accomodation we went out to explore the local area and finishedup in Nando's. Whilst in Nando's the heavens opened and it downpoured for 2-3 hours so we retreated into an internet cafe to update facebook.
Friday 30th May SAM: Today we decided to do our touristy bit of K.L and booked a free trip up to the sky bridge (the bridge between the Petronus towers). We then had a lovely breakfast of waffles, egg and as much coffee as my nerves could handle :). We then decided to spend some time organising our trip to oz and booked some internal flights over the internet. Saturday 31st May SAM: Today we did the other tourist attraction in K.L, which is the K.L tower. Some great views from the top but not too sure about the bungy jump option. On the way down we got hearded away by some local students. Christina was suspicious but I knew they wanted to question me on how to look fashionable on a low budget. Turns out they just wanted a photo of a British couple, either that or our identities are being copied as we speak.
In the afternoon I went to Petronus Cinema to watch Indiana Jones while Christina went off apparently 'window' shopping, although I didn't think you needed bags for that sort of shopping :) Sunday 1st June SAM: Can't believe its June already. We started the day off with a stroll down to the main bus depot in K.L to book our bus tickets to Johar Buru, which leaves tomorrow morning. We then had a lazy morning reading up on NZ. In the afternoon we again decided to get ourselves into an internet cafe and update the Blog. Hope alls well back home. Love to everyone xxx More thumbnails ...

Can't believe all the fantastic places you've been able to visit, I'm so jealous. It all looks fantastic. I think you will enjoy NZ and you may even decide to go back there to live. Dave said they're advertising for teachers (do you think he wants to get rid of me?). Would love to spend some time In NZ and Australia, the life style sound so laid back. Maybe one day. Enjoy yourselves. Lots of love ... show all
