Well,People,
My first "on the road" blog !!! The trip very nearly didn't happen--my Mum got very ill,5DAYS!!! before departure,then the Hospital made some pretty serious c*** ups with treatment,which required very aggressive treatment,which nobody knew how she would react to,but fortunately she is from old stock so seems to be responding well.She's been fine in herself,but obviously not within her body.Anyway the trip was still in the balance right up to me boarding the plane.
Have to say,much more impressed with Airasia than I expected---very,very cheap and service was excellent--you have to pay for meals and in flight entertainment(not expensive,anyway) but other than that---top notch--would thoroughly reccommend it (if your standards aren't TOO high)
Arrived in KL to 29 degs. of heat and high humidity---and,as always,deafening background noise.I managed to get a room for a couple of nights at my usual hotel--the Season's View,Jalan Alors---very much a more well to do BackPacker place---nothing too posh--but clean and pleasant---with a brilliant Chinese food stall evening market right outside !!
Just had a couple of beers and some delicious street stall food and am now beginning to succumb to the dreaded jet lag.
Won't manage to go diving for a couple of days,so those finding this site by googling "diving" will have to wait---sorry!!!
That's about it for the first day of my 3 month trip,
Cheerio,
Alec.
