Hi everyone,
Arrived safe and sound in KL was abit of a culture shock for me (Nell), Staying in a small room, Ross and I are wondering how they got the bed in! There are no windows either! Kuala Lumpur is a strange place I think I thought it would be very developed and westernised. It is in some respects, but everything looks like it is half completed eg, buildings, landscaping, etc. '
On the flight we thought we had a 6 hour flight and landed at 3pm aus time, turns out it was 3pm kl time so it was an 8 hr flight! :( Much to our suprise when we started getting ready for landing at the 6 hour mark only to find we had another 2 hours!
The food on the flight was good, we had Nasi Lemak. (Ross forgot the cord that uploads the camera so we are off to find one of these today) I will upload photos as soon as I get a cord......
We are staying in the suburb Bukit Bintang, when you walk from our hotel it is like the slums and then you turn the corner and you are at this huge shopping precinct. We had dinner in the slums last night. (All of the locals were there so we thought that was a good indicator of good food) And we were right!
We sat down and this indian guy with little english just stared at us, we asked for a menu and he had no clue what we were on about so I just asked for noodles with chicken and Ross asked for a spicey chicken curry..We knew he didnt understand us so we were just like 'What the hell, hope its good' lol. He came out with 2 plates of spicey chicken noodles, it was sooooo good! Ross saw the old man chef spinning roti bread dough and ordered some using the pointing technique. I did the same with this hot drink i saw them all drinking, which turned out to be just sweet coffee- made out of condensed milk and a already made up coffee mixture from a can!
Well we are off to have a look around today so I will repost later and hopefully have some photos for you all.
P.S dad I got your text message, I have no credit and no crickets as yet for breakfast, just some dodgy westerner breakfast we got for free in the hotel/ sardine can. (cant complain it was free!
P.P.S Cathleen, Im wearing a face full of makeup muahahah u love it! xoxo xoxoxoxo
