| Page Views: 2,724 Last Visit to Kuala Lumpur: July, 2006 | Great Buildings ,Bad Traffic and Freindly People. by cokes - last update: Aug 4, 2006 |
When I 1st arrived at KLIA at 6am I almost got a shock when I felt the high humidity of this place.....oh hell. Then I got into the taxi from KLIA to the hotel ,the traffic was bad and the driving was of nothing I`ve seen before. It was really crazy. I did`nt let that put me down. I slowly went walking around the streets of KL , started making use of the public transport system and began to see more and more of what KL had to offer I really started to like this place. If you like shopping then KL is your place. The malls usually close late and the food places even later.
The Petronas Towers was really something for me. What made it even better is that you can enjoy the view of the towers by relaxing at Taman KLCC , enjoying the fountains and the things it has to offer. So when done shopping at Suria KLCC which is situated next to the Twin Towers just step out straight to Taman KLCC. The KL Towers is also something not to be missed as the view from there is spectacular. |
|  | One thing that I think KL is famous for is its VT`ers I have to say. I have to say a special thanks to Terence "Kenboy" for arranging the VT meeting and all the Vt`ers that attended and to Jen "Jenifferchin" who arrange dinner with Winnie "Mizzzthanggg" and Partner and Myself a big thanks as well , I really enjoy myself.
I attended the VT meeting here in KLCC at a place called Little Penang. I really enjoy myself as all the VT`ers were the best and we chatted away like we knew each for a while. The Durian Cake was nice but I have to say I tried the Durian fruit in Singapore.....Oooooh No hehehehehe not for me thanks. I guess we sat down to lovely Malay food. It was also a night I was looking forward to meet a good VT buddy of mine Didi "DidiBeachBum"
