Malaysia Trip: Day 3 (Kuala Lumpur)

Woke up at 815am and prepare to check out in time to catch the 10am shuttle bus to Genting Skyway Station... Chop chop went for breakfast and then proceed to pack up and checkout... Reached the Skyway Station it was 1020am, and bought the 11am bus ticket to go down KL....

By the time we reached KL, it was 11 plus... had wanted to come back to SG but XY received a message from E asking we still had any plans over here, cos she had taken leave on Friday... Then suddenly FL, PS and S all wanted to come KL to meet us tomorrow and asked us to look out for hotel to stay in... So we put our bags in the luggage center in Puduraya Bus Terminal and walked around the area...

Walked along Chinatown area, but there was nothing much there in the afternoon... Then had lunch and went back to the Mc near the bus terminal and call S asking about the plan for tomorrow... More walking after that around the area and then went into an internet cafe to search for hotels in the area... The connection speed is like &*^#@... Can't get used to this kind of speed after using Cable for so long...

Finally settle for a hotel in Chinatown, which was RM90 for one night... the room was super small though and without any window... But at least they have Astro TV, the Malaysia equivalent of Cable TV... This means that I was able to watch the Champs League match between the Gunners and Spatar Prague on ESPN, hehe (but in the end only managed to watch 70 min of the match and dozed off... only get to know the final score on Saturday)...

Then after putting all our stuff into the hotel room, walk down to Berjaya Time Square... The building was really huge with so many levels... At least the 1st 10 levels are for retail shops and there are still more levels up there... And of course there is a theme park at Time Square, from level 5 ~ 9... Spent the next 1.5 hours walking around the building doing window shopping... Also settle our dinner in a japanese restaurant (forgot the name liao) at level 4... Wanted to go KTV but found that it was really expensive, comparable to the weekend rates at K-box in SG, if you know what I mean...

This time decided to take the mass transit back to Puduraya instead of walking... There are actually 3 different lines, each operated by different companies... and we actually had to make a transfer between 2 stations to get to Puduraya... First taking the PRT monorail from Imbi to Hang Tuah, then transfer to STAR line from Hang Tuah to Plaza Rakyat... Upon reaching Puduraya, went to buy the bus tickets to Malacca, which was our next destination... Cos by this time, we already knew that only E would be joining us in Malacca, the rest had "fly aeroplane"...

Explored the night market at Chinatown, which was pretty much selling the usual stuffs that you would find in Bangkok night markets, e.g. T-shirts, perfumes, handbags, shoes, DVDs etc... As we had nothing to buy in mind, we managed to finish exploring within an hour... Thus we went back to the hotel to hava a good night rest, esp after walking such a long distance during the day... zzz... zzz...
