Just a quick update to say hello from swelteringly hot Kuala Lumpur (you know it is legitimately hot when even locals tell you they're finding it tough to deal with)!
It was 35ºC yesterday and today with only the occasional breath of wind to help cool things down. Fortunately the hostel is air conditioned which makes it a good respite when it all gets a bit much.
I had this delicious beef ball soup (which comes with noodles with a
soy, mince and vege combo on top) for dinner last night and have also
had the best freshly squeezed watermelon juice, which I ordered not
knowing what it was, just pointing to something that looked good on
another table - the hunch paid off!
I'm either off to Melaka tomorrow or up north to do some walking/rafting - we'll see how the budget's looking before I decide... Travelling alone makes you very efficient with your time - I've already seen Chinatown, Little India, Petronas Towers, the base of KL Tower, the National Museum, the Islamic Arts Museum, the Central Market, lots of temples and mosques, as well as the Batu Caves! And I'm only on day 2!
So stay tuned for more adventures...
