25 and 26 January - Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Port Klang…. About an hour away from Kuala Lumpur.  So the first day did the highlights of KL (as the locals say).  The tour included the following highlights:

• Royal Selangor - pewter factory
• Petronas Twin Towers
• Tun Abdul Razak Memorial and National Mosque
• Independence Square and Old Railway Station
• Central Market

We had a monsoon in the middle of the tour… which made a few of the stops just ‘bus stops’.. but the last place was the Central Market.  The market was a fun happening, I hung out with Barbara another solo traveler… I actually did some bartering and bought a really cute purse and some silk ‘wrap pants’… pictures below with a bit of commentary

I did buy a money tree and Zodiac Figurine for 1957

Great tour - saw them pour the pewter into molds, polishing etc… and for some reason I didn’t take any photos

And no… i did not buy and Star Wars characters !!! 

Petronas Twin Towers and me

Why we didn’t get out of the bus

Of course no pics… but Central Market was an Art Deco Building with all kinds of stalls and food and art

My fabulous purchase at Central Market - Malaysian Rattan purse!

And the second day… I did absolutely nothing from a tour perspective.  Calls for work early in the morning, walking on the fitness track, breakfast, a little more work, and the a nap!!!  Loved watching the container ships load and off load, and watched a pair of tug boats move a container ship in between 2 docked ships

Just for information… here is my suite location and the track
