The view of downtown KL from Adil's deluxe apartment in the sky. Too bad it is hazy today which obscures the view of Petrobras.
Here I am standing in front of Petrobras Towers.
The iconic symbol of Kuala Lumpur and indeed Malaysia is the Petrobras Tower. The day's activities centered around going there. At 0830 each day visitors wishing to explore the Skybridge between the 2 towers queue for the thousand or so free tickets. My friend Adil and I woke up early and took the subway over to get in line. Arriving at the towers a little before 0830 we decided to have a coffee before getting in line.
Well, when we got to the ticket counter at about 0835 there were easily over 1000 people ahead of us. Once the line started moving it moved very quickly and we were able to pick a time slot for our visit. We chose to go early in the afternoon.
Of course we had lunch while waiting, and I returned to my hotel which was not so pleasant to pack as Adil had invited me to stay the rest of my time in KL with him on the penthouse floor of his condo with a grand view of KL. How nice to have my own bathroom again, a washing machine and kitchen. I probably would not leave tomorrow had I not booked and paid for a flight to Singapore tomorrow.
Yippee!! Maybe I just discovered how to make captions under the pics. Blogging is a learning process.
