Day 74 – Kuala Lumpur

December 27, 2025

We went to Kuala Lumpur; that’s about enough said about that!!

Our plans for Malaysia were to spend a few days in KL before heading up to George Town (Penang) for the New Year. However, when we got to KL and our accommodation was awful and KL felt really sketchy. We’ve done a lot of travel, and a lot before we came on this trip, but this just didn’t feel good. We had similar experiences in Beijing, Day 7 – OMG Beijing Arrival, but this one just made us feel like getting the hell out of there.

So we did!!

After 24 hours we got on a plane and headed back to Thailand which has been our go to through this trip. By the end of the trip we will have been to four different spots in Thailand; and one in Malaysia.

Will we ever go back to Malaysia, who knows!! We’ve seen the Petronas Towers, so at least we earned a badge.

Day 7 – OMG Beijing Arrival

What a welcome to Beijing!!! NOT!!! The announcement on the aircraft, to my ears, was along the lines of if you don’t record fingerprints when you arrive at Daxing International Airport (Beijing) you are likely to be deported; that didn’t feel like the welcome I was expecting!! Anyway, we are pretty much compliant with authorities...

Day 63 – The Killing Fields

It’s unbelievable, and it happened in my lifetime. Now a popular tourist attraction, the atrocities which happened at The Killing Fields can still be felt. I’m not going to explain what happened here, or of the death of more than 20,000 people who arrived but never left. More information can be found on Wikipedia. There...
