My stay in Malaysia, however brief, was a much needed opportunity to take some time all to myself and get some much much much needed spa treatements (this travelling is BRUTAL on your feet!  And did I mention it's been well over 2 months since I've gotten my nails done? Shan the last time was with you in Washington!  To THINK I've gone this long!).  Anyway, as you may guess, I spent the entire day at a really nice spa in the city for what would have probably cost triple or quadruple back home.  It was so nice just to lie there and not have to worry about going anywhere.  You know, that's probably the best part of travelling by yourself - if you want to sit around and do absolutely nothing for a day, you totally can!  I almost have to remind myself that I AM on vacation, and that relaxaing and not doing a bunch of sightseeing isn't such a bad thing!  I DID manage to go through the city's Chinatown - had a GREAT dinnner there!  Super cheap too!  Went up the KL Tower (their version of the CN), saw the Twin Towers (didn't go up them - couldn't get my ass out of bed early enough) and wandered around the Golden Triangle Area - I was in a hostel right in the downtown area.  Although as I discovered on my first night, the hostel was RIGHT on top of a night club - the BLASTED music till 3 in the morning most nights, although on Tuesday they let up at around 1:30, and it wasn't even THAT nice of a place!  Surely there couldn't have been that many people there!  Had a great meal at a Malay restaurant on my last night - the food was really good.  Not a terribly exciting entry I realize, as my stay there was ever so brief - more of a stopover actually.  I wish I'd either planned to stay longer in Malaysia or saved the trip for later I think, so I could have given a real go of it.  But it was good nonetheless!  Off to Bangkok!
