We caught the night train to Kota Bharu which took 14 hours in total, people would think the train would be very uncomfortable but I was surprised to find I slept throughout the journey -the beds were rather small considering my heaight but luckily we didn't have any people snoring within the carriage. Once we arrived in Kota Bharu I was fresh to see the place... so that morning I took a wonder to Central Market which is housed in a mordern octagonal building, it looked wonderful all brightly coloured displaying local produce - fruit & spices. From Central Market [View Full Entry]

Arrived into KL and it was absolutely chucking it down - never seen so much rain come down in a day. The streets and roads were flooded and traffic was moving so slow. We found a hostel called Red Dragon in Chinatown and stayed there for 3 nights which was a clean room and basic room which did us fine. We did all the tourist things like visit the twin towers - which look spectacular at night then onto the Menara for a 360 degree view over KL from there we headed onto Medeka Square which was beautiful, the gardens [View Full Entry]

For some reason I'm becoming a complete adrenaling junkie!! anything with a fear factor I'm there wanting to do it!!! Loving the whole feeling of getting outside your comfort zone... Black water caving was an experience - I'm not a lover of tight enclosed spaces and when your trying to get through a tiny hole and you think to yourself 'there is no way I'm going to fit through that' you have to just push yourselve and with a few twists'n' turns of the body - by magic you squeeze yourself through. The tightest hole we had to squeeze through had [View Full Entry]

Finally another country.... now i feel like I'm REALLY travelling! Australia was fun - alot of fun but I reckon New Zealand will be better - I have that gut feeling but i reckon thats partly due to knowing its not going to evolve around getting pissed most nights like in Oz! After arriving from Perth to Melbourne airport I had to spend 8 hours waiting for my flight out to Christchurch - so got myself a book & my sarong out of my back pack and made myself as comfy as possible on the airport metal chairs then waited and [View Full Entry]
