Hello everyone!
Since we left Ubud we went to stay in Sanur for 2 nights before we left Bali. We don't really rate it to be honest. The beach was really nice but food was an iddue. It was generally rubbish and over priced for what it was. Anyway, we made the most of the lovely ebach while we had it and we rented some canoes. I have better balance than Taz ;-) he kept tipping in. Ha ha. They were quite cool, more like a flat surfboard than a canoe and you could ride the waves on them. We were sat drying on a pier when about 200 kids arrived - we presumed some kinda school trip was going on. They all came rushing over and for about 30 minutes we were both celebrities! "Excuse me Mr and Mrs - Picture?" It was like being hounded, ha.
So we left Bali on Thursday. Our flight with AsiaAir was 3 hours long and really good. But we arrived in Malaysia at night, and the bus to the center of Kuala Lumpur was an hour. Then we hopped on the monorail thingy to near our hostel. We arrived really dehydrated! After some much needed water we spent hours wandering through China Town. You can buy anything you want - fake and cheap!! We got some lovely chinese food for peanuts and went to bed. Our very uncomfortable bed! The "Westover Lodge" was a little bit on the rough side. Ideal for back packers but we were glad we'd only booked one night!
Yesterday we had to move out of our little hostel. We looked for another hotel but they were either booked up or really pricey because of the chinese New Year this weekend. So we found one in downtown Kuala Lumpur, the Tune hotel for 20 quid a night. It was like luxury! Compared to the hostel the night before. The shower was a dream, the bed was soooo comfortable. And the curtains were blackouts, so at 9.30 this morning when we finally got up, we felt like we'd had a proper sleep for a change! We saw the Petronas towers last night, they were so cool looking at night, like 2 big diamonds!
Today we unfortunately have to leave the Tune Hotel, but we managed to find "D'oriental" so we're going to find that after some brekky - and a brew in Starbucks! REAL milky brew!!!!!!!!
