The bus arrived in KL at 1 am & we were lucky to spot our hotel from the road. There was a king size bed in the room which was very welcome after six weeks in a tent. In the morning we headed into town but found that all the tickets for the Petronas Towers Skybridge had already been given out but we later learned that the same view of KL can be seen from the top of the Mandarin Oriental hotel, you just have to walk in as if you are staying there & take the lift up.
After exploring the many shopping malls (mainly because they were air conditioned & were a welcome relief from the humidity outside) we went out for a meal with Mei Leng, her family & friends to Madam Kwans, where we had a variety of Malaysian dishes ending with a bowl of Cen Dol (shaved ice, coconut, red beans, palm sugar & as Sam calls it 'green stuff'), delicious!
