One thing that made us laugh was the moped riders had their jackets on backwards, we presume because it was too hot to wear them normally but they needed to stop the draft as they rode.
Our rainforest hostel in the heart of the city. Highly recommended, good friendly people, clean facilities.
Our hostel which was very good

To sum up Kuala Lumpur great city, easy to get around and some good tourist sights to see. The only down side, the humidity, you break out in sweat just thinking about walking around.
Kuala Lumpur airport was very modern and Malaysian airlines one of the best we’ve travelled by. It even had a tail cam so we could watch our take off and landing.
Back on English soil.
Next up – Our brief trip home then on to Canada to meet our bike.

I always believed they wore their jackets back to front to stop their shirts getting dirty

Oh no, the humidity was almost unbearable at times but a great place none the less.
Glad you can still find us on the old atlas.
Love K & K

Very colourful! & a bit like Hong-Kong was years ago maybe, with the markets etc butwithout the humidity-which is what they tell us we have to look forward to next week, after being scorched for a couple of weeks! I’ve still found you on the old Atlas!
