Darren and Vicki's Travels
Hi all,
Well here we are.
Arrived yetserday at about 5ish - thats after a 5hr bus journey form KL which wasn't too bad, a twenty minute ferry ride and then 1/2 hr on a local bus - which was v. scary. Found where we are staying quite easily - a few seconds from the beach - although this area is like a Malaysian Blackpool - and full of English people on holiday.
Got settled into our room and got changed then, went for a wander along the beach. Wandered our way back through the streets - and they were setting up stalls - again full of everything you could imagine. Went to a hawker stall for dinner and then found a pub to watch the football in - an English pub - game was played at 12pm and i was sooo happy until the 82nd minute - but again thanks to the wonders of Beckham - England won. Although they were all wanting crouch to be send off the the man of the moment Rooney to pla - thye had been chanting his name almost since the begining fo the game -i don't think the rest of the clientel noticed that we were scottish -they even offered us to get our face painted with the English flag - Tom i know you wouldn't have approved so we declined :)
Been for a bit of a wander this morning - although it started to rain :( just a short shower but it wasn't as sunny as it was before - thank goodness :)
