Malaysian Mayhem

---

I probably should make some reference to my trip to Malaysia. Even though it was only a means to an ends (a new Indonesian visa), getting there is half the fun.
In between running round the country like a madman trying to get my visa, I spent a couple of days in Kuala Lumpur and Penang.
KL is similar to Singapore - just a bit dirtier. I actually had a bit of culture shock, arriving there from Indonesia, because it was so western.
Penang is a chill led out colonial settlement, with a few of the old English buildings to remind us of it's past.
Throughout the Malaysian peninsular I am beginning to notice a little bit of repetition in the cities. Each of them so far has featured a Little India and a Chinatown. It certainly makes dining out more enjoyable!
PS
I don't have alll the photos from Penang. It may pay to have another loook at the entry in a couple of days.
