*268 - the KL trip

Our Kuala Lumpur trip, in pictures. I took close to 300 photos originally, but being neurotic as I am, I generally take 2, or 3, or 4 shots of everything, so in the end after clearing out the photos, I am left with about 170. Haha! Here's a selection of my favourites (:



Rather rustic and, well, dirty. One thing I'm proud of about Singapore is that everything is so well maintained - if anything goes wrong, you can always complain. Heh heh.



Nasi GORFNG, anyone?



Sweet little wet towelettes. They looked so much like candy that I nearly ate them.



Century egg! I like (: Funny how they feature on Fear Factor.



Hairy pig!! Now isn't that just gross. Ugh ugh ugh.



Taking a coffee break, after too much shopping.



Now this has got to be The Ultimate funny photo of myself! The family was in uproar over this photo. HAHA. Now, the reason behind the face was that I was trying to show that my seat was too low and the straw was too tall, but I think I exaggerated my difficulties just a tad. HAHAHA.



Shopping mall! There were more floors, but my lou pok camera couldn't capture them.



Cute matching sparkly Little Red Riding Hoods.



There wasn't enough space, so our table got pushed to the edge of the curb, with cars whizzing past and people walking right next to us.



Spot the odd one out!



Hokkien mee. If you haven't tried the Malaysian variety, you really should. Awesome.



Chicken wings, and a pair of diving wooden chopsticks.



Satay. YUM.



There's a little mechanism that makes him dip the plastic thing into the bubble liquid and then it moves back upwards, and he farts bubbles. Great, isn't he? :D



Down the loooong escalator to catch the LRT! I look Jappy.



View from the LRT.



We went to visit Po Po, who is looking much stronger and healthier now (: The two grandmothers reunited! I think it's been years and years since they've seen each other.



Family photo! (: A lot of teary touching moments, and Po Po is awfully sweet and cute and huggable. <3



Why don't they have A&W in Singapore anymore? The root beer floats are to die for, and who doesn't like curly fries!



Lunch.



Dunkin' Donuts!



Greedy face. Because this is my favourite veggie! Baby kalian (:



Spot the 8th dwarf! (Actually, one's hidden behind the tree but you know what I mean.) We, I mean, the dwarfs, are looking at Santa emerging from the ceiling, but you can't see it in the photo.



The 2nd tallest building in the world - the twin towers! Massive.



The best yong tau foo I've ever eaten. Seriously. I could drool thinking about that brinjal.



Merry Christmas to me! My Christmas breakfast - a cheesecake bun and hot tea. I'm all alone because the hotel's breakfast buffet was free for only 4 people, so I volunteered to stay in the room.



Dreamy emo shot.



Yum! I liked my Christmas breakfast very much (:



I know this is a ghastly photo to end it all off with, but it was the last photo we took so it deserves mention. Road kill! If you haven't already realised, it's a dead monkey with yellow innards. Weird. Bananas, maybe? :P

The journey back was painfully slow because of all the potholes in the road, but we made it back in about 5 hours. Phew. I'm glad to be home, really (: I like my country. Yay for Singapore!

Oh yes, and thank you all for the Christmas wishes and cards (: I'm touched!
