Well we arrived in Bali today. It is really hot and sunny here, 32 degrees. Found a really nice bungalow, "Kedins Inn" on in Kuta beach area - the main strip on the beach. The money is so mad here, I got out a million earlier (Rupea though, not pounds!!!!) We spent the afternoon lying on the beach, and watching the sunset on the water. Off out tonight to discover the nightlife. We have spent the last week really just lying on the beach and chilling out, w...

We arrived in Singapore on Friday afternoon. The journey took 6h from 'Tioman' but it was fine. We have met up with Steve and Sandra Baker, who have offered us a place to stay and have also been so kind as to show us round the city. They have been really good to us. Last night they took us out to dinner at one of the local restaurants, which was really nice. It had lots of stalls and you just ordered lots of dishes from each. Today (Saturday) we...

On the boat we met a French couple so we all went together to find acco...

Today, Sunday, we reached Melaka. It was easy enough to find our hostel, once we had found a taxi. Taxi's are really cheeky here, charging over the odds for a journey, so being the cunning girls we are we walk away only for the men to call after us ok ok!! We are staying in 'Travellers Lodge' A really nice place, it has hot showers+a rooftop terrace+a lounge area+a kitchen. All for 2.50 quid each! We then set out to discover the city, and find some lunch...

Well its Wednesday and we are now in 'Kuala Lumpur'. It only took us 4hours to get here from 'Tanah Rata', all be it by some very scarey bendy high roads!!!!! We are staying in "Wheelers Guesthouse" which is really nice, it has air con and a fan - needed as it is well hot! It is located in central Chinatown, one of the busiest sectors in the city. We took a walk to the Central Market, which sold handicrafts and had some great local food stalls. We th...
