We had previously forgotten to mention that whilst in Malaysia we would undertake a challenge. This challenge far greater than that of safely finding our way around the world or even communicating with non-English speaking locals. Actually, we met a couple who had an ingenious solution for this - a book containing thousands of images, successful communication just required you to point at the most appropriate picture - brilliant! Back to the challenge no drink for an entire country. As i write this now we have arrived in Singapore and have been clean for 21 days - in short, we need a drink! KL was good, plenty of Chinese and Indian influences here so again a good cultural mix and some interesting food. We spent a lot of the time wandering round the streets not really ... read more

DAY ONE We arrived in Philtranco bus station in @ exactly 6:00am just in time for the bus to leave for Megamall which will directly take us to Clark Airport.

But it got better when I got to vienna (after running everywhere,30 minutes late) to find the next entry! It was a huge plane, I sat next to three nice girls the whole trip (11 hours) and they were going to Sidney! I arrived Kuala Lumpur 6am and the first thing I noticed after getting lost in custom-baggage-people kaos: it was like breathing fire outside. I didn't even feel the smoke.. Got a taxi after much "taxiii?taaaxiiii?u want taxxxiii?" ... read more
