It Raining Again.

Lesson Learnt, When in Kuala Lumpur, and it starts to rain. Don't travel by road... The roads here clop up bad. And it rains very hard. Drains cannot cope, waterways overflow, puddles become lakes and generally everything gets wet. Oh and umbrella prices double..

China Town

Well we went to China Town this weekend. Mum got some Material and I enjoyed just looking. China town is a shoppers delight, it has all the usual cheap copies and then has other stuff mixed in it. There are wet markets in the back streets. Small eating places tuck away in the back streets. China is labelled as one street. but, step off that strret and the charater of thew area comes alive. I love going to place. just for the scenery..

The bug and Dads Toy

Well we got two cars here in Malaysia Cars here are very Expensive, makes NZ cars look very cheap, but it is due to all the taxes over here on cars. Mums car is the Little Kancil. Smaller than a mini, but it can still go fast. She loves it and has named it her MY bug. As for mine, I got the Kai Sportage. Nice small 4x4. Car Insurance is a nightmare over here, hassle appon hassle. And thats even with the standard rate that has to be applied by the companies.. As for events. Nothing to report. Had a couple of quiet weeks. Work is catch up on us..

Weekend Drive

First we went to Seremban, this is where we found this beautifull hindu site. Then on the Museum, this was a small museum with surprisally little stuff in it. But still worth a stop. They did have Water buffalo in amongst the crops but this was rare. The last town went to Karak, we found the street had small and beatifull streets A great day out..
