Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

We arrived in Kuala Lumpur, walked around China Town for a bit, grabbed a bite to eat and called it an early night, in order to get up early the next day.

After a great night sleep we woke up bright and early. We were out beginning our journey for the day before the hustle and bustle of the city streets and before the extreme heat around 8am. It was quite calming to be outside on the streets before the craziness of traffice, people and vendors.

Our first stop was the Petronas Towers, pretty amazing twin towers. We also walked around the water park, and got whistled at (go figure) by the security guards when trying to play on the children's see saw. We walked to Jalan Alor Street, right off of Jalan Bukit Bintang, which is a popular place for street stalls and hawlker stands with lots of yummy spicy food.










After a mini rain session, maybe 3 minutes of rain(which did not cool things down one bit), we walked to the Art Gallery, Mereka Square and Central Market. We also chatted it up with a local, finding out the best places to go out at night.

At night we went back to the Petronas Towers, which look awesome lit up at night, and to watch a light show. We then went out around Jalan Ramlee, which was more of a clubby area, not really our scene. We stayed a bit, then went back around China Town to “Reggae Bar” which had good music so we started a dance party there.
