Petronas Towers....

....by night

Hi all,

Kuala Lumpur is fantastic, a beautiful city with lots to see.
We have been here for 4 nights and leave on the night train to Singapore
at 10:30pm tonight.

Our accomodation was in the Allson Genesis Hotel which was very nice indeed. We paid 165RM a night for a lovely room. The location is also very convenient.

Naturally we went to see the famous Petronas Towers here in KL, very impressive
& the 2nd tallest building in the world (after Sears Tower in Chicago).

Have done LOADS of shopping here, in fact we had to buy a wheely suitcase
to put everything into.....so we are no longer backpackers!!

I got a great deal on an XBox console, and promptly followed that up by
buying about 15 XBox copied (*cough*) games at 1 Euro each.....!!!!!

We have also stocked up on 25 of the latest films that we have not seen
(Alexander, Alfie, Closer, Shark Tale, The Incredibles, Saw, Blade 3, etc)......great
deals on them - 3 DVDs for 2 Euro....Ha !

Now we just need to get them safely through customs and we'll be all set
for Brissie.

I have left Ireland..........that country is dead to me! I'm an Irish accountant living & working in Sydney at the moment, having spent almost 4 months travelling through South East Asia, followed by 7 months work in Brisbane. I also spent the month of October travelling up the East coast and to Alice Springs. Am looking at leaving Sydney in November 2006, then onto New Zealand for 6 weeks, South America for 3 months, Central America for 5/6 weeks, Cuba , possibly Canada, then back to Europe. Latest plan is also to catch the Cricket World Cup in Jamaica in March 2007!!! Click the ... full info
