Another day in KL

It's hard to believe we're in another city!!! Still hot & muggy but learning how to deal with it: up early & out, inside in middle of day (either shopping plaza & there's plenty of them, or nap) then out again in evening. Experienced our first storm stuck for 3 hrs & napped in a chair while we waited.
Malaysia is an easy city to negotiate, everyone speaks English & everthing's written in English. The people are friendly & so clean, no litter & street sweepers & toilet cleaners wherever you go.
We're not good at bargaining yet & way off our budget, so heading for the beaches at Penang & then on to Thailand to hopefuly spend less. Yes that's THAILAND (I think I know where I'm going). At least I know with Kyle at my side = calculator for the money convertion & navigator that you don't argue with = He's good!!!
Food is great, trying all sorts of stuff 'Frog Porridge' is my next adventure. Did the touristy thing & went out with a guide & it turned out great, took us all over & learnt lots, but mostly we're getting around well enough. Although watch the hawkers, held a snake & tried to charge us 10 ringet each, but they don't tell you that first, gotta know that nothing's free.
Have moved into a hostel which is cheaper & better, meet other travelers & get tips & chats.
You could buy heaps here it's well set up for the tourist trade, bulk discounts etc, but you need lots of money.
Lots & lots of walking, that'll be good for me, but the feet are sore, lots of reflexology which will check out tomorrow.
Will be good to get out of the city & see some of the real Malaysia, so no update for a few days as we get into some serious relaxing.
Take Care All, Love MAZZ & KYLE XXX

Were Finally Here and Doing it

Well we made it, all that preparation & now can finally relax, if you can in this humidity. It's not so hot just sticky & sweaty.we've just been wandering a bit around the city today, checking out the sites. went to the twin towers (now the tallest buildings in the world).
You take your life into your hands crossing the street, everyone gathers at a spot & when there's enough people you just walk out in one mob & the traffic has to stop, on your own it's a little more risky but those with more guts just hold up their hand & step off the side walk.
The smells coming out of the gutters are a bit rank & definitely an assault on the nose.
the time situation is fine were only 2 hours behind Aus & you feel rich with all this Ringet in your pocket but don't go into a market they won't let you out in a hurry.
No freeloading yet, but the airconditioned hotel is good, we just need someone to show us around as it's a big city, and comes alive at night!!!
so until next time keep eating that cheese
Cheers XXX

We're Finally Off

We've done it, Kyle & Mazz are finally off on April 24th at midnite. We'll be sorry to leave Celina behind, but I'm sure she'll catch up with us somewhere over there.
First stop is Kuala Lumpa for a whole month, because it's cheap & Mazz wants somewhere to R&R before hitting UK & Europe, although I know I won't do KL by halves as I'll want to see & do everything possible.
We hit London at the end of May for a few weeks, hopefully we'll catch up with Ebony & a few others we know or have been given addresses & then spend summer traveling Europe & seeing some fabulous sights & having amazing adventures.
Will keep you all posted!!!!!
