Arrival in the land of strawberries and Malaysian cream teas

Another day, another country

Dave and I boarded the night train to KL last night and arrived sleepy but excited in KL at 7:30 this morning.    Dave likes breakfast so we started the day in early morning luxury with all you can eat breakfast at the Hilton.  After a speedy visit to the Petronas towers,a crisis of confidence in the Malaysian post office, we got a train up to Tapah Row before boarding a bus for the highlands.  Great bus driver who talked non stop all the way and beeped every corner as we climbed higher and higher.    Our hotel had promised me a steamboat so I was looking anxiously for the lake... until Dave pointed out a steamboat in this part of the world is steamed vegetables!

Off to bed now as we are mountain climbing, strawberry picking and butterfly spotting tomorrow!
