3 Days in KL...

Just came back from KL. Went there with Jas, Din, Hanah and Martin. Not exactly a very exciting trip but at least its a form of relaxation for me. Our trip there was by the Gunung Raya Coach and interestingly there were only 5 of us on the bus, excluding the drivers. So essentially, we paid 25 bucks each and had the whole bus to ourselves... haha... not a bad deal. Slept all the way and reached KL at about 3am. Had to navigate to our hotel after that. I guess Jas was pretty disappointed when she saw the hotel. I'm sure its not what she'd hoped it would be. Not those grand multi-storey hotel with luxurious bathtub. Sorry darling, can't put your bubble bath into good use.... =P<>

It was really a very "budget hotel". Had just enough for us to sleep and shower that's all. But then again, that hotel belongs to Hanah's good friend's sister, so we just stay lor. Don't worry darling, I'll make sure we get a better hotel next time round! Had some misunderstanding with the janitor and some confusion with the arrangement resulted in us paying more than we expected for the hotel. Kinda complicated. Shan't elaborate further.
Spent the next few days exploring KL on foot. Went to a lot of shopping centres and also the Petronas Twin Tower.... supposedly the only Twin Tower left in the world. Its a very majestic building. Very nice and impressive. Not everyone can go up for the skybridge visit though. Only limited number of tickets available per day. Which is why we had to wake up damn early in the morning to queue up for the tickets. Reach the entrance at about 7.30am and there was already a queue down there. Waited for about 2 hours and the visit only lasted 10mins.... pathetic...

<><>

<>Bought some stuffs here and there. Can't really splurge cuz the prices in the shopping centre ain't any cheaper. Got a pair of cool nike shoes on the last day. I like it. I think its nice! There were some "down" time during the trip. A damn idiotic vendor at the pasar malam spoiled our mood. Other than that, the rest of the trip was pretty fine. Had fun and we were planning for a Thailand trip next year. Wondering if they are go going by bus or plane.... we'll see when the time comes.
