Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia



After leaving Singapore, we had a 7 hour train journey through the farmland and forest of Malaysia, Eventually we arrived. After searching for our hostel named Matahari we headed to a Reggae bar for drinks and food. The next day we booked in for the KL Hop on Hop of bus, a bus which hass 22 different stops around all the must see places of Kuala Lumpur. The patronas towers, 2 parks with lakes and a sanctuary for baby mice dear, were a few of many. That night we returned to our hostel to plan our next stop (Penang Island here we come)

Singapore




We arrived safely in Singapore after a long bumpy flight. Our first thoughts were how humid it was. After finding our hostel and dumping our bags we headed for Chinatown, it just so happened to be coming up to the Chinese new year so you can imagine how hectic it was. The next day we trekked around the city checking out the local attractions, we saw the famous Raffles hotel, Orchard Rd and many other things in this ultra clean city. Though very expensive Matt still managed to find sweet & sour pork and rice for 80p (Delicious). Next stop Kuala Lumpur!
