So we got off te train with no taxis..and well lets just say ina town where no one is a tourist but us! The guys left us with teh bags in search for transportation. I think we are lucky to be travelling in a Muslim (of some sorts) country where people are very kind..especially when you offer them money. So a man that works at the post office who likes to drive gave us a ride for $150 ringgit (us-malay 1/3) HE was greAt. we had to stop at the mosque so he could pray for our trip then we headed off, it took awhile, but he dropped us off and we ended up getting hot chocolate with him and all talking about the politics and malaysia and everything almost! He left and we ordered dinner from the currey house we were at..tandoori chicken on naaan SO GOOD. Oh it was so good. Naan is like a flat bread..and they give you three sauces to dip ur chicken and naan in. We went up to this hostel we were trying to stay at, but ended up having to stay in the hotel down the street..but the guy who runs teh hostel said we can chill there which is awesome becasue they have a pool table and a movie room and a restraunt and its a social tkind of place. We found free WIFi so hung out getting in touch with familys for a bit..ive been readin a lot..time for bed.
