Day 1 in Kuala Lumpur

Right after (almost) my final exam, I went for an impromptu trip to Malaysia with my sis and aunt for almost a week.Usually, we'd drive in but this time, we took a coach in because we'll be meeting my parents in Malacca and they'll be driving. We took the morning coach and by the time we reached, it was already after lunch.

We stayed in Swiss Gardens. By far the best hotel I've stayed in.
Because we were there for the sake of travelling, there wasn't much we wanted to do so we stayed in to watch TV.

After the show, we decided to go for massage at Ancient Thai.
We wanted to try this massage parlour on our previous trip but it was fully booked. So we headed down. It's just around the corner from our hotel.






The massage was really good! Before 6pm, you only pay RM44 for an hour of leg/shoulder/head massage. They serve you ginger tea and the service was really good too.

Address:
No. 13 Ground Floor,
Jalan Tong Shin,
Off Bukit Bintang,
50200 Kuala Lumpur
(Located on the right hand corner at the end of famous Jalan Alor)

Opening hours: 10am - 3am (last call at 2am)
Go before 6pm for discounted packages!

The receptionist recommended us to a roadside stall that's opened 24 hours.

This was what they were selling. Yummy beef noodles.

Feeling all satisfied, we went to Sungei Wang to change our sing dollars into malaysian currency. The money changer at the entrance has the highest exchange rate all the time. It was only the first day, but I've spent RM150 out of my RM200. My parents gave my sis and I each RM200 for the entire KL trip. Yeah, they didn't want us to buy too many things back but the clothes were really cheap!

Then we had dinner.

We visit this stall whenever we're at KL.


Their fried omelette's a must get!
It's different from what you have in Singapore. They serve theirs fried, thin and crispy.


Look at how happy my sis is. She don't take spicy food but whenever we're here, she'll eat everything, especially the fish.

We walked back to our hotel with our loots and tried out the clothes and shoes we bought.
Love the location of our hotel. Everywhere is of walking distance.
