Spent the first night in KL (Day 152) at a neighboring hostel's rooftop patio enjoying views of the city and cheap beers...well not really cheap. Beer in Malaysia costs about $2USD at the cheapest places which is a big change from Vietnam where a mug set you back a quarter. Enjoyed meeting some new people from Holland, Germany and Switzerland who shared some advice about things to see in KL...After the patio we migrated to the Reggae Bar until closing. I think I woke everyone up in the dorm on my way in...but it happens sometimes I guess.
Made a plan with the crew from last night to go to Petronas tower's skybridge for the view of the city in the morning. Need to get there early to get a ticket since its free so the plan was to get up at 7:30 and leave by 8AM. Since we were out till 3AM...didn't think they would still do it, but they did and woke me up right on time. It was raining really hard out but it didnt stop us and we made our way there. Stood in line for about 30 minutes and got 2 tickets for 6:30pm since Mike should be here by then. Back to the hostel I tried to take a nap...but it was too hot since the air con only turns on after 9pm. Wandered around Chinatown for a while, hit the Thai embassy with Cameron (New Zealand) to pick up his visa and then went to check out the Skybridge with him and an English girl, Kate. Messed up Mike's flight times so he will be coming in tomorrow. After the skybridge had some dinner nearby the hostel...food is cheap and good in Chinatown. That evening, a Norweigan (whose name I still don't know after hanging out with for 2 days....), a couple of Swiss girls and and an English girl sat on our rooftop patio playing Uno. After a few games it rapidly turned into a drinking game...not sure how! We closed down the patio and it was time for bed...
