2D1N in KL






Glad we went on a short 2 Day 1 Night driving trip to Kuala Lumpur instead of embarking of something too ambitious. Think we are all getting a bit sick and tired of long trips.. packing& unpacking luggages, planning, plus the obviously higher cost , with higher risk of returning more tired than rejuvenated. The Imperial Sheraton Hotel along Jln Sultan Ismail is a pleasant surprise, got a clubroom, so was nice. The Monorail is right next to the hotel, and we could get to KLCC, Bukit Bintang, Berjaya Time Square, and Jln Petaling (China town), all within a few stops.
Shopping was great this time round, most of the shops in the Pavillion were having sales, and we got good bargains at 50% - 70% discounts. Tried the Claypot "laoShuFen" (short rice noodle) in "Jian Lian" coffee shop in China Town-recommended by Nicholas- was delicious!
Took some Kiddy rides in Cosmo World, Berjaya Time Square to satisfy YingHong before we drove home. Only down factor - again we paid the "compound fine" to the "friendly" traffic police at the road block on North-South highway on our way to KL.. bargained and paid a RM100 "processing fee" - it's become budgeted in every of our drive along NS highway now.. even if we diligently make sure we are within speed limits.. when one's supposed to pay, you gotta pay.. no arguments.. Fine...Nevertheless, we had a great time!
