Having asked at reception yesterday, I am going in hunt of my favourite Chinese breakfast this morning, the dough sticks and soya milk. I have said to Hannah and she is going to join me. She is late but eventually turns up in the mafia mobile. I'm confused as she doesn't appear to be parking it up. I get in and as her what the craic is. She tells me that she has found the best place to get the dough sticks in KL and we are going there, to meet some of her friends for breakfast. I warn her that I better get my breakfast because I know for sure that I can get them here. She tells me not to worry because she has done the research and this is the place. Off we go. We get to the place and meet her friends and get a seat. Then I ask Hannah where my breakfast is? I saw the dough sticks, so I go and grab them, but no soya milk to be found. I end up having cold soya milk from a tin! Not what I had in mind. After taking the piss out of Hannah for her mistake, we say goodbye to her friends and have a look around the market area. Then we stumble across a chocolate factory! Hannah got so excited because she has always wanted to go, but hasn't yet.

So we head in to this chocolate factory. Now to be honest it was more like a chocolate shop than a factory, with 4 machines in the shop talking about how chocolate is made. We had a look around, which took all of 5mins and then we left, after taking many photos of course. Next on the list is the war memorial. We get up to the site, of course there are a few people kicking around all standing right where you would want to take a photo. After an eternity they move on and we get to have a few snaps, before we head back to her house to seek shelter from the relentless sun.

Hannah cooks me some lunch, which I gladly gobble up before we head back out to meet another one of her friends. This time we are just relaxing in a coffee shop and chatting away. Then as usual it's back to the station for me to head back to my hostel. I have arranged to meet the students from Melaka for a drink before I leave KL and so tonight I am heading to meet them. There is information in my hostel about a free bus service that is available around KL, it's a pity that I am only finding out about this now, as I am leaving. The bus is even reported to have free wifi!! On a bus? Wow. The station is just round the corner from the hostel and so I wander round, and sure enough there is the free bus. On I get and I try to connect to the wifi, no joy, awww well it did sound too good to be true. Another interesting observation is that I am the only white person on this bus, it appears to get used much more by the locals. The bus is playing music Scorpions - Wind Of Change, and I am whistling away, but after hearing it for the 10th time on loop my enthusiasm is not what it was. I get off at the shopping district as that is where I am going to meet the guys. The have brought another couple of their mates with them and so after something to eat we head to the bar area and get some bottles. The girls aren't here because they are both suffering from bed bug rashes, ohhhh nasty! It's pretty early and so there are not too many people about. Hannah comes and joins us a little later and it was a good night. The rain is beating down when it comes time for me to head back, but luckily Hannah has the mafia mobile and so she gives me a lift home. I say my goodbyes, Singapore tomorrow.
