Day 1, Kuala Lumpur


Hooray! First post! Definitely in Asia. The beginning of "the debutants" (private joke).

13 hours low cost flight with 7 hours jet lag, we are now recovering in an opulent KL hotel, we are staying there for 2 days.  We arrived at 7:00 local time and we manage to not sleep all day long... We had a nice day visiting the Menera tower and walking through the city centre.

We ate our first delicious local food in a "restoran" (Malyasians like to remove the consonants at the end of words!) and burnt our remaining energy in  the swimming pool of the hotel. All this makes the last minute preparation and the journey from Bristol to London with 2 bikes in boxes and 2 extra big pieces of luggage a good anecdote.

the bikes...




Big thanks to Amy and her mother for warmly welcoming us in London before the departure.
