BEACH!! YAY!! Our first beach! It's not bad! We left Father's in the Highlands to get the 9.00 am bus. Apparantally there isn't a bus at 9.00, so we had to wait until 11.00. We had a cup of tea, but it wasn't as niiiice as the one at the Boh plantation. Tea in Malaysia is really sweet and tastes a little like it has chocolate in it, a bit like a mocca. A German couple, Frank and Christiana stated chatting to us. They didn't know where to go so we told them abo...

Today was more travelling. A hot bus from Bentong back down to Kuala Lumper, then across the city on the metro (aircon though, which was great!) and then another sweaty bus to the Cameron Highlands which was about 3 hours. Coop got to sit next to a local who was trying to talk to him. Coop's Malay is rubbish, especially with the "Malay made easy" book with helpful sentances such as "I wish to pracitise my tongue in English with him." Coop deci...

Bentong, the arse end of no-where We got up early this morning to get to bentong to go to an elephant sanctuary. We got to bentong, and my god, we really are travellers now!

Although we did crack open the 'malay for retards' book. which is the most unuseful thing ever. It had useful sentances such as 'i want to practise my t...

Got into KL at 6.45am, and managed to loose the weird old man who attached himself to us on the train. We found a hostal in china town which was well cool, it had a balcony off it and the door open at night which kept us really cool and all for only 3 pound 75 each. We just had a general wander round today, it was roasting hot and quite dirty. There are no such thing as pavements in KL, just the side of the road. We did get our feet nibbled by doctor fish tho...

This was our last day in Singapore before heading off to Malaysia. We went to an island off the east coast of Singapore called Pulau Ubin which you get to by bumboat. Right, you all stopped giggling now? Claire and Coops friend Wykesy came with us and we all hired bikes to get round the island, its only 7 by 2 km, so doesnt take that long to go round. Im telling you though, there was no 50 point Halfords safety check on these bad boys! Bearing in mind i'...
