KL: Day 03 

Petronas Twin Towers 06
Petronas Twin Towers 03
Day 3 and it was time to explore the various shopping centres and China Town! Catching the monorail over to China Town was dead easy. When you get to the hawker stalls in the hub of Chinatown, it’s pretty full on walking through. Hawkers are in your face for what seems like an eternity selling cheap clothes, DVDs, wallets, watches, etc… The skill is in the bargaining and you never choose the first price, even if an item is marked down. It also gets bloody hot in the swarm so bringing bottled water is always a good call. I might go back there again and take some more photos as my camera battery died before I got into the hub.

Later on, with the battery quickly charged, I visited the Petronas Twin Towers which were fantastic to photograph. I managed to get my shots before a rather loud and spectacular freak thunderstorm came by and trenched everyone. Sitting under the towers in a bar with a beer in hand, I watched the storm and soaked up the atmosphere.

    I was at the Man Utd Sports Bar in KL on 11/9/01. Worth a visit on Tuesday night/Wednesday morning for Chelsea v Liverpool or Wednesday night/Thursday morning for Man Utd v Milan? (Champions League semi-finals).

    Hey Steve. Keen for the Man Utd Vs Milan match but it starts at 2:45am here and I’m teaching in the morning. Thanks for the heads up though!
