I had a bit
of a lie in after the long and early days but obviously got up just in time for
free breakfast. I say free, you probably partly pay for it in your living cost.
First port of call was to do some washing so I dropped it to a place a few
roads down around midday and he said I could come and collect it at 6pm, same
day service, winner! It cost me £3 to do pretty much my entire bag, bargain.

I then
decided I should really go and see the Petronas Towers as I hadn’t quite made
it there yet. The towers were opened in 1998 and were the tallest twin towers
in the world at the time of opening at 452m. Taipei 101 then took over in 2004.
The west tower was built by a Japanese company, whereas the east tower was
built by a South Korean company. I discovered on arrival that they aren’t open
on a Monday and I couldn’t even buy a ticket for tomorrow so I’ll need to see
if I can get it online. The towers are surrounded by a big shopping centre so I
had a quick look in there and got some lunch in one of the food courts. Most
places I’ve been to in Asia do the best Satay Chicken, I don’t think you can
get it as good at home; it’s just something else.
It started
to rain again which ruined my plans of walking around the bird park and getting
to the museum, so I decided to head to Midvalley to have a look at another
little shopping centre. I didn’t really buy anything in KL but they are quite
interesting to look at. There are too many Japanese shops around, everything is
so cute!
I went back
to my hostel and everyone who was in my room had now left and a Canadian guy
had moved in, we got talking and we both said we planned to go to the Batu
Caves tomorrow so we’re now going together, I also managed to book myself to go
up the Petronas towers at 4.15pm! Score!
