So we are sitting in the departures lounge in KLIA waiting to board but the plane has been delayed by an hour due to a toilet problem, I guess they better fix that because we have a 13 hour flight on our hands and things may get messy if there is an 'issue' with the toilet. Although I (kristian) generously figured out how to get onto free wifi in the lounge so we are no longer bored!
It's pretty sad to be leaving KL (besides the fact we found a theme park, more on that later) because we have thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
After our post yesterday we had about 2 hours to kill so we jumped on the train again and went to dang wangi (we mastered the train and monorail system) which placed us right next a rain forest reserve which you had to go though to get to the KL tower which is quite a spectacle itself. After 400 stairs and one grumpy girlfriend later, we found ourselves at the bottom of the tower and also food for mozzies.
We jumped back on the train to KLCC and waited to get up the petronas twin towers which was quite good that we got tickets! The lift took 41 sends for 41 floors but as we got up there Lauren was frozen (literally frozen) in fear by the sheer height of where we were. We got some good photos and slowly made our way down. Upon leaving we found a can of Milo which had been premade which wasn't too bad and jumped on the train and monorail back to the hotel.
The greatest discovery of the trip just so happened to be the shopping centers literraly right infront of our hotel. We saved it for last because it just looked a little small and we had never heard if it. As we got in the front entrance we were greeted with 10 floors of non stop shopping with 100 stores per level! We though we would jump in the lift to get a scope if the place as we discovered just a subtle THEME PARK built in to the 5-10 stories of the shopping centers bit was pretty spectacular. We had a look around and found a few market which was a good place to spend the rest of our ringgit.
13 solid hours out we retreated back to our hotel to rest up for our 6am wake up which leads us finally to the airport.
We are just about to board now which is good finally. The reason this post is so long is that I am just sooo bored. Well we get to London in 13 hours so we will speak to you all soon enough.
Take care!
Kristian and Lauren.
