The bus to KL is fairly uneventful as I kip all the way. Some disorientation when we get off as all the street signs seem to be hiding, but we soon find our way towards chinatown/Petaling street and the hostel we're staying at. Mark and I are in the same dorm and Innes is in the room just off, our room is like a cave as there are no windows and someone's always sleeping so the light stays off. We head off towards the CBD to take in the Petronas twin towers, check out the shopping centre at the bottom, spend an eternity in a bookshop and get some more piccies in the dark.
Next day we visit the KL communications tower for a view over the city, walking through the park to get to it. We also go to the indoor market near Chinatown for some essential shopping. Eating at foodcourts where curries come on the bone- for the first time since we arrived in SE Asia. We spend some time in the afternoon in the Times Square Mall, the biggest in KL and go bowling! Yey! The market in Chinatown so Innes can do some shoe shopping and Mark can buy a rugby top. Then we're all toasting Innes' departure with a tiger beer.
Mark and I wake early to beat the crowds queing for tickets to Petronas, we buy some yummy fruit on the way and breakfast standing in line. As a result we're in the second party of the day to tour. Go us! Got some wicky pics from the skybridge then did a bit more shopping. Taking in a film that evening in Times Square "meet the spartans" which seemed heavily edited. We also visit the post office to send parcels home. Bit of a farce.
