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
