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.

The Haven, Khao Lak, Thailand

Another of the ‘great things’ to see in China, the Terracotta Warriors close to Xi’an. These are one more of those man-made creations you can’t really grasp the size of, or understand the time taken to create these warriors, until you’re there to see it with your own eyes. The detail in each warrior is...
