Leaving Malacca

First thing after breakfast, we packed our bags and walked to catch the local bus. We waited a few minutes in the blazing sun before a taxi pulled up. He agreed to take us to the bus station for not much more than the bus, as he was on his way there anyway.

We booked the next available bus to Kuala Lumpur which meant only half an hour to wait. The bus journey took 2 hours and we slept for some of it. We must still be recovering from the late night World Cup!

We arrived in KL, worked out the LRT map (tube) and 30 minutes later were in our hostel. After cooling off we explored China town and then had an Indian lunch.

After dark we caught the LRT to the KLCC area to see the spectacular Petronas Towers and watch the dancing fountains outside. There also seemed to be a show for Ramadan inside the mall but we were too late to watch ... maybe tomorrow.

We caught the LRT back to our hostel as everything closed down for the night.
