Kuala Lumpur

3Feb2011

When we reached the hotel, we were too tired to go anywhere. We had our shower and took a nap. At about 9pm, we were hungry. We needed to find food for dinner.

We leisurely walked out of the hotel and ready to explore the city.


Just outside the hotel, I could see the KL Tower.


Opposite the hotel, I could view the Petronas Twin Towers!


Isn't it magnificent?


There's a 7 Eleven just opposite the road. We bought a few things and then had burgers at Wendy's just beside it.


After satisfying our hunger, we explored further. Oh, the Bintang Walk is just further down the road!


At this point, we didn't go further as it was getting late. This "Yes" ad caught my attention!


See, the road was even decorated with lanterns. Well, it was not actually quiet!
So many cars on the road!



We called it a day and walked back happily to the hotel. The next day, we visited some awesome places of interest.

    Not quiet? Guess you were not there on the eve and 1st day...or maybe KL like here, business goes on as usual - economy no good, can't afford to close for so long like before.

    You did not go to Jalan Alor? And if you go straight along the lane to the right of the hotel, you will get to Changkat Bukit Bintang where all the nightlife in KL is... All the posh fancy restaurants and what not are there.

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
