In December we stopped over in Kuala Lumpur on our way to Australia. After a 12 hour flight we arrived in KL in the evening and made our way to our hotel, which was in the middle of the city right around the corner from the Petronus Towers. I was in charge of picking of the hotel and I made sure to pick the one with the best rooftop pool!
The pool looked over the city and afforded fantastic views from all sides. The sun was very intense in KL and we got a few weird sunburns from missing pieces, as the sun was very unforgiving! We stayed in KL for two nights and tried to adjust to the time difference and see a few things while we were there. We walked around the Petronus towers which are the tallest twin buildings in the world. The grounds were very pretty, with flowers and fountains but it was super hot and humid, and after 6 months of cold weather we struggled in the heat. One night we made reservations at a restaurant downtown and had the hotel help us hail a cab. We got in and after a 15min drive we pulled up at some random place and the cabbie stopped the car and said, 'ok'. We were thinking, 'ok...where are we?', but the language barrier prevented further conversation, so we got out and decided to choose something nearby. We ended up finding a trendy place outside with chic couches and tapas and when a sudden downpour arrived, a retractable patio cover kept us dry. We enjoyed the tropical climate but wished we were closer to the coast because of the hot and sticky weather.
The next day we headed to the airport...Brisbane here we come!
