Exploring Malaysia!

-

The road from Bangkok to Malaysia was an adventure all its own. Check out the picture of this wonderful experience!


Choo choo...
 
First stop: Penang Malaysia

We dropped by a peaceful harbour town called Penang and it was such a pleasant surprise. We had a few hours to roam their streets that had a distinct indian influence. We walked and walked until our feet were about to fall off then we just hammed it up in a Marina with a picturesque view in the background.



Embarassing to admit, we wasted our time taking some tacky jumping shots hehehe.. But what the heck, it was fun and nobody knew who we were. heck, nobody was around! So we got to know Penang more before we head off to our next stop.



Second stop: Kuala Lumpur

Our first order of travel was to book the much awaited Petronas bridge walk. It's FREE but you had to earn it because a line as tall as the tower itself greeted us when we got there (at 7AM!!!). Come 9am, there weren't enough tickets to give away. So we were still lucky...

Second order of travel: LUNCH!!! We were famished and I wanted to taste aunthentic Malaysian cuisine. We had Chicken Laksa with shrimp something something and peanuts and Chicken Biryani.





 

Chocolate Kingdom, indeed! Durian Chocolate, Chili Chocolate, and FREE taste tests... Weeee!

Day shot of The Petronas.

Night shot

Third order of travel was to view The Petronas Tower at night and get a "perfect" shot. I might have taken a hundred shots, until my camera's battery gave up on me.



After the uptenth shot and angle and nearly splitting my toe in half, I was able to get a good enough shot. =)

Have you ever wondered how you look in another person's eyes? . Its strange but I guess we will never know.. . One of my fave past times is people watching. I share that enthusiasm with my sister. We can stay and people watch all day. . What they say may indeed be true "we are all voyeurs" in one way or another. . Its rather entertaining observing strangers from afar. Being candid, unaware. They show their true selves. .. Even in photographs, I like the candid ones. The "real" candid photos, not the I'll-pose-but-make-it-look-candid pictures that you see everywhere. . I happen to come across some of my pics, taken unbeknownst. . Looking at these shots, I realized a few thing about myself: I have a penchant for touching my face. I have a habit of biting, puffing or playing with my lips. I have this "lost" look that makes me seem so faraway. My smile is my best when Im oblivious to who is watching. My eyes are too transparent for my own goo

A seemingly usual Tuesday

I went ice skating yesterday!!! After more than 10 years of sabbatical, i had a sudden urge to do it again...I dont know why or what got into me, probably the desperation of wanting to do something during my weeklong rest... Off we went to Mall of Asia, psyching ourselves and praying not to get humiliated.. It was a tuesday, so good coz there were not that many people in the mall. Lesser number of eyewitnesses seeing us at our clumsiest hahaha... Of course we had to fill our stomachs first.. A weird theory of "fuller stomach, thicker skins" which simply translates the more satisfied you are with your tumtum the lesser you notice the stupid/embarassing thing you do :) So, we head off to choose where to eat and it was quite easy coz I was hungry I chose the first resto that caught my attention...Aristocrat! Off we ordered our meal..Lumpia Shanghai for me with a trusty Sago't Gulaman. Their famous BBQ chicken with Halo Halo for Marianna... Yum!!! There we were stomachs ful
