We went back into China Town last night for something to eat and the jet lag and lack of sleep over the last 48 hours finally took its toll. So we came back to the hostel for 6ish, trying to stay awake as long as we could. Neil gave up at about 8pm and I lasted until about 9.30. Had a really good night's sleep, and must have gone out for the count as didn't hear any of our other roommates come back in. (There are 8 beds in the room in total). We had decided to go to see the Petronas towers today and so had to be up by 7am, we were showered and had our breakfast by 8 (I need to be more organised on a night as the room had no windows ... read more

De laatste twee nachten heb ik doorgebracht in Kuala Lumpur (KL). Ik verbleef in de wijk China town dus altijd wel wat te doen op straat! Leukste was toch wel om de Petronas Towers te bekijken vanaf de Skybar. Wat een uitzicht!

Hiya everyone!! We have spent the last 5 nights in Kuala Lumpur and we have had a really good time it is a really cool city really reminds us of London. On our first night we stayed in Times Square which has the most amazing shopping centre it is huge and has a roller coaster. This area is the richer area and we only stayed here because everywhere else was booked up as the grand prix was on. The hostel we stayed in was really nice and all of the staff were helpful and gave us loads of advice. On our second day we bought tickets to go up the KL telecommunication tower it is one of the tallest ones in the world and the view was amazing we also moved hostel to one called Back ... read more
