Thursday 26th April - where did the day go? So let's call it Friday 27th

Flight was at 12pm, so of course we were wide awake, but we landed in Kuala Lumpur after an 11 hour flight at 6am Friday, but do you think I could sleep? Of course not. After leaving our luggage at the hotel we walked to the nearest mall around 8.30am but shops don't open until 10am. Even then we needed to waste time until about 1pm when our room might have been ready. Check-in wasn't until 2pm but he could clearly see we were knackered so said he'd try to have the room ready earlier. What better time waster than people-watching; Justin's favourite pastime.

The most eventful thing that happened today was when a woman walked past where Justin and I and another lady were sitting and threw a bottle cross the floor that smashed and spread quite a way. This got the security guards going. We could hear her screaming as she ran up the escalator. Guards got on their walky-talkies and began the chase. Unfortunately we never saw what happened but it looked like she might have gotten away with it.

Wondering if we were hungry or just really tired we headed to a supermarket. At the supermarkets you go to little 'stalls' within the supermarket to buy what you want individually. One for meat, sweets, seafood, even a mini sushi restaurant you could sit at in the middle of the supermarket. Frustrated we couldn't find any bread products we bought our fruit only to discover there was a bread shop just before the exit but after the checkouts to the supermarket.

Isetan (a department store) was having a 'card holders only' sale and it made the Farmers Card Holders nights look small. People were lined up to get in about half an hour before it opened.

And here we are in the club lounge at cocktail hour enjoying drinks and nibbles. It's amazing what a sleep, swim and shower can do. Off to do some shopping soon and head out to a Japanese restaurant for tea. Mmmm Japanese buffet!

One more day and we'll be home. Hard to imagine.

Go Shirley A netball team for your first game tomorrow. See you next week.

Excuse any mistakes, it's been a long day and I'm not reading this AGAIN...
