Had a great time in KL. Wonderful people, a great local band, beautiful hot weather and excellent food. Who could ask for anything more?!

Bit of a shock to see all the posters of my face everywhere! |
|
Mmm... I sampled many of their famous puddings - all scrumptious! |
|
The Twin Petronas Towers - one of the main landmarks in KL - photo taken from the back of a taxi on my way to Chinatown |

Chinatown! My first shopping trip |
|
Just loved the atmosphere here - mostly fake goods but lots of fun haggling with stall holders |
|
Gabe the pianist from the band and his friends introduced me to this kitsch Indian restaurant where all the food was served on banana leaves! |
|
Central Market - another shopping trip! |
|
I love markets - especially the beautiful colours |
|
Couldn't be persuaded to let tiny fish give me a pedicure by eating the dead skin off my feet... |
|
... but was tempted by these clogs. They're handpainted and were made specially to fit me by the shoemaker while I waited! |
|
And I felt very pleased with myself for taking the local bus back - it was a feast for the senses with the smells, loud music, chatter, bumpy eratic driving and conducter shouting out to the people on the pavements! |
|
The equivalent of the cards we sometimes see in telephone boxes in London - a message with a name and phone number. Interesting that they only charged RM15 (the equivalent of £3)!!! |
|
One of the many monkeys that live in the grounds of a friend's house where I was invited to dinner. So cute! |
