Day 2 in KL
Posted by Sarah O'Neill , Saturday, 16 October 2010 03:20
We decided not to get up early for the Petronas Towers Tickets, preferring to view the outside of the towers, than the view from them, and also preferring to stay in bed past 6am! Got out and about around 9.30, and used the monorail and underground to get to the City Centre. The Petronas Towers are awesome to look at, and Ben took some good pictures!
We spent the day in the area, the City Centre Park is right outside the towers, and is a really nice place to hang out and take some good photos. It’s really nicely landscaped, with a rubberised running track (we even saw crazy people using it, in the impossible heat!), lots of places to sit, and even a kids swimming pool! We really wanted to dip our feet in the pool, which looked like so much fun, more like the Pavillions Pool than your bog standard outside rectangular pool, but there were two lady security guards with whistles, and they weren’t afraid to use them! We didn’t get whistled at, thank goodness, but several people did!
We went to the cinema (in the mall) before dinner and watched ‘Dinner for Schmucks’, which was funny, but not what I was expecting! The cinema was absolutely freezing! They seemed to have gone a bit mad with the air-con, and I sat through the whole thing shivering! When we stepped out of the screen the temperature was so much warmer, and then once we got out to the mall, it was even warmer, even though it was still exactly the same temperature as before when it had been refreshingly cool, but in comparison to the screen, it was hot! Going outside was funny, it was absolutely boiling! We had dinner, and then headed outside to see the view of the towers at night. That was an awesome sight! Ben spent about 45 minutes trying to get the perfect picture, and got some good ones! We headed back to the hotel around 9.30 and packed our bags for an early start!
