Malaysia is kool dont get me wrong but 4 me i have 2 admit what sums it up is the incrediable food. I was part and parcel of introducing jaya and manjit to tamil food.

However half way down we decided 2 try and hitch a ride (but we were convinced we wouldnt get one as we were covered in mud - i had stepped in the stuff and it had gone past my ankle :-( We managed 2 hitch a lift, these guys had a ute and we sat in the back clutching on as they drove downhill it was us 3 and this couple as well. Was an experience 2 remember.
