01: Malaysia – Perhentian Islands
Tuesday 12th September 2006 Woke up on the border with Malaysia pretty much. Took a short taxi ride to the border and immigration. Then another taxi on the Malay side to Kota Bharu and tried to find some accommodation. This proved to be a little more difficult than in Thailand. KB is a bit of [...]
02: Malaysia – Jungle Train
Friday 15th September 2006 We had planned to spend another day on the islands, maybe take a water taxi over to the big island and mooch around over there. But after a bit of reading up on the places we wanted to see on our way to Singapore and Bali we realised we would need [...]
03: Malaysia – Taman Negara
Sunday 17th September 2006 So, yet another early start for us. But this time not too bad. 8:30am and we were on the bus to take us to the jetty at Kuala Tembling. There we boarded a boat to take us up the Tembling river to the National Park at Taman Negara. We had already [...]
03: Malaysia – Taman Negara Canopy walk
Sunday 17th September 2006 So, yet another early start for us. But this time not too bad. 8:30am and we were on the bus to take us to the jetty at Kuala Tembling. There we boarded a boat to take us up the Tembling river to the National Park at Taman Negara. We had already [...]
04: Malaysia – Taman Negara. Bukit Teresek
Monday 18th September 2006 Bukit Teresek hill climb and Gua Telinga bat cave. Woke up a bit stiff after the trekking and night safari. It had been quite a late night for us and we had been using muscles we hadn’t used for a while. Today we were heading for a hill climb and a [...]
05: Malaysia – Cameron Highlands
Tuesday 19th September 2006 We are on the move again. We say good bye to Taman Negara and get on a really comfortable bus to Jerantut, then on to the Cameron Highlands. The journey through the mountains was pretty cool. In more ways than one. The scenery was pretty amazing and we were gaining altitude [...]
06: Malaysia – Cameron highlands. Plantation tour
Wednesday 20th September 2006 We woke up to a familiar feeling; autumn back home when you have to get up for work and the heating hadn’t kicked in yet. Our room was pretty damn cold. Yep, it certainly is like the climate back home. Which brought Andy back to reality with a bump when he [...]
07: Malaysia – Kuala Lumpur. KLCC
Thursday 21st September We decided to have a nothing day today. No trips, no places of interest, no taxi rides…to anywhere. We have been running around seeing stuff or having to be somewhere to meet a bus or train for a few weeks now. It was time to just sit in a café and relax [...]
08: Malaysia – Kuala Lumpur. Putrajaya
Saturday 23rd September 2006 BB plaza on Bukit Bintang is a good place for cameras and lenses. We met Azli outside and he showed us to the better shops. The prices weren’t bad at all so Andy bought a 50mm lens. We almost bought Michelle a new camera but decided against it. We had just [...]
09: Malaysia – Kuala Lumpur. Walking tour
Monday 25th September We got up late and took it easy after yesterday afternoon’s stresses. Today would have to be a get things done and sorted day. So we phoned the bank and let them have it. Basically making it their problem to send us new cards etc. Next job, we went through our bulging [...]
10: Malaysia – Melaka
Wednesday 27th September Our guesthouse wasn’t too far from the Main K.L. Bus terminal. So we walked with our newly lightened backpacks. The big comfortable bus with huge wide seats soon had us dozing on the two and a half hour trip to Melaka. When we got there we were surprised to find ourselves in [...]
