November 8th- November 12th We've been very busy the last few days in Singapore, we packed our 4 day trip with a lot of activities, so this one will be long. Day 1- Still with us? Let's begin........The trip from Melaka to Singapore was quite short, the border crossing was easy and we found our way to our hostel via the underground. We were staying in an Australian ran hostel called the Prince of Wales. The dorm room we booked slept 24 people, we were lucky t...

November 5th- November 8th We arrived in Melaka, after another coach journey. This coach journey was not only ridiculous long and fraught with countless stops but it was also freezing. Seriously, the AC was on 18 the whole way, it got so bad, when we stopped off Declan went into the luggage part to get himself a coat!!!

The Genting Highlands is a niche entertainment resort up in the hills surrounding KL. It is owned and ran by the Genting group, who for avid football followers are the current sponsors of Aston Villa. The bus we boar...

October 26th-October 30th It was pretty much plain sailing all the way to Kuala Lumpur (KL), which was good; we were in need of a normal journey. We were dropped off in the middle of KL by a building site and got a cab to our hostel. Our hostel was called the Bodhi Lodge and from the outside it looked pretty ominous. However it may well have been the best place we have stopped at so far, and mainly for 1 reason, GeeGee. She was the woman that owns the hostel and...
