Next stop. . . . .

Ko Lanta, a nice chilled out spot but it heaps popular with the hippie crew. There are so many around te place. All the resorts are run by them too. We managed to find one that was run by an Irish woman from Armagh or something like that. Was a cool bamboo hut we stayed in with, wait for it, an outdoor bathroom. Pretty strange going to the toilet and seeing the moon in full glow above you. We spent 3 mites there and we did absolutely nothin except relax and sleep. It was time to get over the fatigue of travelling for the past 2 months and it was so great. We just lay on the beach or in the water. Rye weather was nice enough but did get a thunder storm everyday which was annoying but they made nice sunsets in the evening so we were content with that at least. Alas it was time to say goodbye to thailand for the last time as we got a cheap enough bus all the way to KL. Took us about 22 hours to get there but it wasn't all travelling time. We had a 4 hour break near the border which meant we could get food and stretch the long legs for a bit. So on the bus and off we went for country number 6, Malaysia. And at about 7am we arrived into KL greeted by the sight of the KL tower and proper forms of transportation. So we dropped our bags, got an hour sleep and hit the pavements for a wander around this city. First stop, where else but the Patronas towers and the KLCC shopping centre. The towers are bloody massive. Got a creek in my neck from looking up at them. Pretty awesome I have to say. So we managed to actually navigate the city easy and with Alvs desire for a harddrive we hit Low Yat place a visit. The home of every bit of technology the world would ever need. 5 floors of IT wonders. So surprisingly we managed to source a harddrive easy and got a real good deal on one so she was happy. After that it was a visit to time square and the back to KLCC where we decided to go see Harry Potter. Was a great movie and plus the cinema was dirt cheap so everyone is happy. We also managed to get up the KL tower the next morning and te views were stunning. I now have the makings of a full panorama of KL. May see how that turns out. Next it was over to the colonial district to see Merdeka Square and the sourrounds. The buildings over there are pretty cool and are so completely different to the whole city. Amazing stuff. Then it was Market time and we got some cool bargins but it was mainly just wandering around and seeing what the city has to offer and it has alot. It's one of the most liveable places we have been to. So now it's another bus trip but only for 5 hours to our final Asian country of Singapore. Only 3 days to our flight to NZ now. Insane!
