We only had one day in Malaysia but it was great. We stayed in China town in this gross little hotel room. I was mostly just grossed out because there was hair on my pillow and the sheets were stained, and it took a while for the toilet to flush. But no biggie, i just didnt shower that night...and opted not to use the super-worn flip flop shower shoes offered by the hotel.
We ate dinner, walked around town, and looked at all the city lights and jumping fountains. I found a poster of Milo Ventimiglia in the train station and am pictured above drooling. I've been in love with that man since Gilmore Girls. Victoria kept saying she had seen something about a tea tasting house. We kept making fun that we didnt believe her because we couldnt find it and nobody knew what we were talking about. And then we rounded a corner and there it was...a little hole in the wall tea shop with a table and dishes set up for tasting. Along with a man who either didnt speak english, or pretended not to when i would ask him questions. You know maybe he was deaf? Ya thats it!...except the tv was on. hmmm.
We got up REALLY early and took the train down town to get in line for tickets to the sky bridge on the Twin Patronas towers. Being on the bridge was a cool view and all...but Malaysia has really built up the hype on this thing. Now, I'm no architect, so maybe this thing is a much bigger deal than i'm giving it credit, especially for malaysia...but i think all the standing in line for tickets, and the Petronas exhibit beforehand, the movie-theater-video of how the towers were built....i think its just a bunch of fluff. Its 2 tall buildings made of glass and steel. Its pretty at night. It has a bunch of expensive stores in it. There you go.
Then we went to the butterfly park and it was fun. All different kinds of butterflies there and i spent hours just trying to get pictures of some. My camera is much too slow for the wings of a butterlfy.
That evening we flew to Bali.
