This morning we were up VERY early to catch the bus at 6am and head to the airport. We had a 1.5 hour flight before landing in KL and meeting our new tour guide. Zubere is a lovely man, much more enthusiastic and engaged than Mas, our guide in Kuching.
We drove straight to our hotel and dropped the bags off in a room before heading to a shopping centre for lunch. After lunch, we had hoped our rooms would be ready, but it was not to be, so it was up to the local market to take our luck with bargaining! The stall holders are very aggressive, much more so than what I had experienced in Hong Kong.
I picked up one thing, only to find out we could have got it for a third of the price elsewhere! Oh well, cant win them all!!!
After some 'quick bargaining' most of our rooms were finally ready (well, all but two) and it was soon time to go to the laundry to drop off the dirty washing so we had enough clothes to get home, and then on to the special surprise treat Jodee had organised for everyone - 30min reflexology. It was WONDERFUL!!!!
On returning to the hotel after this, (the room still wasnt ready), it was off to the cooking class and dinner. We went to a lovely restaurant, and learnt to make three dishes - very simple, fragrant and really, really tasty. Everyone had a go at cooking something, it was great.
Dinner was also such a treat, with the restaurant being very very good, and being able to taste a number of dishes.
We soon rolled into bed after a very long day!
