Kuala Lumpur

9th Feb - 11th Feb:
Having found a hostel on the out skirts of Chinatown we made great use of the Chinese market for great street food and bargains as a result of some fantastic british bartering. We decided to sell out and to a trip to the Batu Caves a local tourist hotspot.... a massive mistake. The cave itself was fantasic utterly ruined by the shameless tourism! Kuala Lumpur again let us down when we tried to visit the city rainforest, which was still closed after 2 years because they are building a new path.... The nightlife, butterfly park and Chinatown saved our trip from being a total disaster but the sting from not getting a Burmese visa is still a very pain! Currently in the process of returning to Thailand and the lake which I will be very grateful to see again!
