malaysia

 we went to the city of kuala lumpar while in malaysia. we only had a day there so we made the most of it. first, we went to the batu caves. we hiked up lots and lots of stairs to get to these caves and they were worth it! the caves were huge and we saw and fed a lot of monkeys. we had an awesome view of the city as well. ana and i got our henna on because we were going to little india next. it was the appropriate thing to do.

 sushi on a conveyer belt. not the best sushi i've had, but cool idea.

i didn't really get any pictures of little india but it was cool. lots of food to eat and shopping to do. i unfortunately couldn't buy anything.. tanner gave me a budget that i had unfortunately spent by then.. our last stop for the day was at the glorious patrona towers. they are the tallest twin towers in the world and quite a sight to see. throughout the day i saw them peeking in between buildings but seeing them at night was something else. outside the towers was a nice plaza area with a fun water show. i was glad we ended our day there. 

we had to wake up at three in the morning to catch a bus to the airport. i must have still been asleep when we got out of the taxi at the bus station because i ended up leaving my beloved monopod in the trunk. that thing wasn't cheap either and i had carried it with me for two weeks and just had a few days left. my advice to the weary, don't bring expensive stuff with you while you travel. i've had too many hiccups happen and lots of money out the window. or, just be smarter than me :)
