Into Malaysia

I never pass up an opportunity to be back in my birth country - Malaysia. The few days we spent in Kuala Lumpur last week were good. We managed to dine with my brother and family and also met up with Onn and Julina. The hotel was nice and not too expensive, compared to an equivalent in Singapore.

A day was devoted to sorting out some legal matters with the lawyers. The rest of the time we were with family and friends, mostly eating and shopping. Dining in KL in my opinion is much better than in Singapore. Restaurant dining is far cheaper than in Singapore and the quality is definitely more superior. Shopping is better and cheaper and we had a great time there.

Yesterday we had another day in Johor Baru for some bank business. Dianne took the opportunity to do yet more shopping. That was an enjoyable day out for both of us. Bought another Korean period drama on DVD of 24 episodes.

Now we are packing for our journey back to UK. We leave Singapore on Jan 21 and will be at Heathrow on the morning of Jan 22. Not looking forward to the long haul journey of 12 hours. Economy seats are so uncomfortable on BA flights. Hope to get First Class tomorrow.
