So last night had planned on going to the night safari, but no one else was going that night and with the solo taxi journey both ways would have been way to expensive. Wasn't too dissapointed, as I'm going to spend some time in the Malaysian jungle and can hear those night sounds for real, thats going to be awesome!Instead I wandered to Orchard Road, the expensive shopping street. Yayoi Kurasuma (think thats right) had covered the trees in polka dots, which I always enjoy, and walking around I saw a Border bookstore. I walked in, thinking at least half of it would have to be in English, and perhaps you fellow expats can appreciate my delight at discovering it was ALL ENGLISH!!! I wanted to take pictures but thought that might make the staff suspcicious of me, so I wandered around with a ridiculous grin on my face just flipping through random books in each section. Pure bliss! I'm sure if anyone was paying attention to me they probably thought I was high or something.
Today just wandered around the Quays (the money picture) and a bit of Chinatown to get some cheap eats ($2! vs. 15 at the quay). Had thought about climbing a little mountain, but its so hot and humid today decided that would be a miserable idea so just hung out and read my book and people watched, a nice lazy day. Taking the night train to KL where I'll be meeting Simon at night, yay! We're gonna hang out in and around KL for 4 days then its off to an island paradise where I plan on getting my scuba license, I can't wait!
