We didn’t spend very long in Malaysia, just going to Kuala Lumpur for four nights on the way to Indonesia. Not far over the border from Thailand we stopped for food, and a girl working there took me by surprise by saying I had a good face. She didn’t look it, but must have been visually impaired. Anyhoo, KL is another modern Asian city, with excellent public transport. As in Bangkok, the light rail (monorail) is particularly impressive. We’d been to KL before, so didn’t need to do everything on offer. We went up the Petronas Towers (formerly the world’s tallest buildings) and went to a couple of theme parks. One was in a shopping mall, and had a pretty big rollercoaster and other rides. The other was a water park a bit out of town, with some nifty waterslides. I’ve been to KL three or four times now, but still haven’t seen any koalas.
