Kuala Lumpa

The more observant of you will have noticed that I have just posted the last 2 weeks pictures in the last couple of hours. Well that's because I am in Kuala Lumpa Airport awaiting my transfer to Heathrow. Sat in Starbucks using the free Wi-Fi Hot Spot. Here's my view from the window.

View from Hotel Window

Here is a .swf file that I created of the view from my Hotel Window. The full picture is over 4 Mb butthis is only 170 k.  It gives you the idea but you need "Flash " to see it. If you want the full 4 Mb file you need broadband and email me.Download hotel_view_penang_island.swf

I have also optimised it down to 40k for those on mobile devices - but this doesn't really do it any justice at all.

Hiding Cow

Now I do believe he knew!! You will have to look closely as he didn't really want to meet me( Roumer of m y eating habbits may have reached him). That is untill I climbed out of the car to get a closer picture - then he was right up for it! N eedless to say I neglected to get the close up as I was too busy getting back in the car screaming "Go Go Go !!"

Curried Cow's Brains

Yes it is!! At first I thought it was a wind up - some sort of vegetable surely! But no - after I had tucked in and scoffed it down, they confirmed - yes it was "Curried Cow Brains". It was actually Quite nice - like a slightly rubbery Liver but white!

Penang Island from the Ferry

The Ferry was so much more relaxed than the bridge.

The island looks almost calm from the Ferry

You want fish?

Fresh fish on the menu.........This geeza was upset when he found out we wern't going to eat it!

Water Cooled CPU

The inovative Malay's - This is the ultimate "Water Cooled CPU", cleverly they have used the heat for some tropical fish - two hobbies in one box!!??

Malay Chav

The Malay's love their cars, and you see many a Proton with a chaved up exhaust and aerowing , usually they are speeding around attempting to knock over as many scooters as posible , but I managed to snap this one that was parked. Sorry it's a bit dark!

Food Glorious Food

The Malay's love their food, and I have found that I really have enjoyed some of it. Here are some pics of stuff I can't eat - I am alergic to fish!!.

Deep fried fishes

Big Fish Head Curry

Small Fish Head Curry

.

A full spread of Fishy stuff.

Penang Bridge

We have had to cross this insane bridge every day on our hour drive into the wilds of Malaysia - it's 13.5 Km long and it's anarchy all the way. We have always caught the ferry back which is alot more leisurely.

Cortina Taxi

Had to snap this old Cortina Taxi

More from Malaysia

Whilst at work on my birthday I was given this strange flower by one of the girls ( Ayu- Couldnt spell her real name) I thought it was quite sweet for her to think of my birthday.Then when I got back to the Hotel I had the cake waiting in my room. The Malaysians know how to spoil you !!
