Sinus Serious in Kuala Lumpur
Got to Kuala Lumpur from Singapore via the overnight train. I arrived three days ago and I’m staying at one of the 5 star hotels Kuala Lumpur offers, yes! My first 5 star hotel ever. It’s not to far from Chinatown, so that’s where I headed first.
Tons of knock-off bags and watches. I was overwhelmed with the mountains upon mountains of DVD’s. I found Kuala Lumpur to be a very cool city. It has character, even though I really didn’t get to see too much of it. My sinuses kept me down and out most of the time. But yesterday, I grabbed the metro and went to the famous Twin Towers and rode the elevator all the way up to the observation floor, but it was closed! So, I went back down to the base of the towers and did a bit of shopping. Every possible designer names were there, Gucci, Fendi and so on. I went out onto the street shops and there was O’Brien’s Sandwich bar and Monsoon and Oasis. All so very posh and beyond my wallet. I did lose my phone, I think I left it in the restroom of the overnight train, so I bought a new inexpensive phone for $20. I’ll forward you my new number in a separate email.
Previously, I had booked 7 nights in Lankkawi island, which is located North of Malaysia and closer to the border with Thailand. I’ll be catching another overnight train tomorrow and then catch a ferry. It appears to be a very quiet island and very luscious and beautiful. I really like how inexpensive Malaysia is compared to the rest of my travels, that’s why I could afford a 5 star hotel in the first place. I would like to spend more time here, but my plans are my plans and my sinus are my sinus. I just hope my sinus clear up by the time I get to Lankkawi.
