Last Day in Malaysia
Today was our last day in Malaysia. Susan and I booked a tour (which really ended up being a car ride) to a rain forest at the Forest Research Institute of Malaysia (FRIM). The driver warned us about leeches and gave us a lighter to burn them off in case one got attached to us. I couldn’t get any pictures inside the rain forest as the camera lens fogged up immediately. We walked around for a while through the forest and then the rest of the land at the FRIM.
The driver took us to the Batu Caves on the way back. This is a Hindu Shrine in a group of caves just north of Kuala Lumpur. The site is also loaded with macaque monkeys, which got seemed to scare quite a few people on the way up to the caves. Susan and I observed some prayer ceremonies after the walk up.
For dinner we headed back into KL, and went to Feast Village which is in the JW Marriott. This place has a wide variety of restaurants from around the world. We stopped over at the Fisherman’s Cove and I must say it was well worth it. The roast duck was by far the best meal I have had in quite some time! The next time I come to this area, I will be staying at the JW!
Check out the pictures from today’s adventures.
