Did I already mention that I really, really like Malaysia? It keeps getting better. I am now in Kuala Lumpur, the capitol and I have made friends with a very nice local guy named Adil who is showing me around his city. Today we went to Batu caves outside of KL and tomorrow the schedule is for the Hop On Hop Off City Bus tour. I have already caught a few glimpses of Petrobras Twin Towers where Sean Connery and Katherine Zeta Jones did their thing on new years of the millennium. It is very exciting to see such an iconic structure.
Also went to see Alice in Wonderland at the cinema. That has long been one of my favorite books and the movie is excellent. With Johnny Depp and Tim Burton it had to be good! Go see it! Appropriately at the end of the film Alice is embarking on a ship bound for Malacca which was Malaysia back in the Victorian days.
love the phonetic spelling of words here. As I mentioned earlier, Malaysia was an English colony and English was adopted as a second language. The spelling makes a lot of sense such as restaurant is restoran, police is polis and August is Ogus. Makes sense.
