Sorry about the delay in getting this post up, but university and work have conspired to reduce my free time to nil. This series of photos is from the 3 days that V and I spent in Kuala Lumpur on the way back to Australia.
We were hanging out with Bri, one of V’s friends, at the Hilton in KL (no we weren’t staying there), when there was the loudest crack of thunder I’ve ever heard in my life, and it started pelting down with rain. We caught a taxi back to our hotel; public transport would have been a little damp.
I visited the Petronas Science Centre in the Petronas Towers. It was basically a huge propaganda machine for how awesome the extraction, refinement and combustion of oil is and how patriotic Petronas is, but it also had some neat exhibits. The above image was from a thermal camera, but there were also earthquake-simulating benches, projected images that you could interact with using your shadow and downhill skiing simulators, among many other things.
They give you exactly seven minutes on the Skybridge. We had to start queuing at 7:30 in the morning to get a spot!
The above image was a tiled mosaic on the roof of the mall at the bottom of the Petronas Towers, and it was probably the most interesting thing about the mall.
The above photo was on the window of a clothing store. … I don’t know either.
Somehow, it tastes better when you eat it off a banana leaf.
That’s it for now, but I’m going to attempt to get the next lot up a bit more quickly!
