Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

Look it up if you don't remember where exactly Kuala Lumpur is. All I can say right now is we just completed another marathon travel day (mind you, after a 14 hour flight, followed by a 3 hour chaser flight, nothing seems bad any more).

Don't think Erwin and I are basking on the beaches or sleeping in every day. This morning, we had to be at the airport by 5:30 for a 3 hour flight from Beijing to HongKong, connecting onto another 3 hour flight from HongKong to Kuala Lumpur. Our travel day started at 4 a.m., arriving at our new hotel at 6:30 pm. Met with everyone else in the lounge at 7 for our new game plans.

This is going to be different than Beijing as we have mandatory challenges now that we HAVE to complete or all the other challenges won't count. I took a quick look through the challenges and there's some that look very interesting.......

Everthing comes to a screeching halt on Friday at 10pm. We meet then at the world famous Long Bar in Raffles Hotel, Singapore. Yes, some time on Friday, we have to make our own way from KP to Singapore.

That's all for today, Erwin's snoring....I'm tired...can't concentrate any more. I think we get to have nasi goreng here tommorrow, at least I'll know what I'm eating.

I really enjoy your updates. It's now part of my early morning routine to find out where in the world you are today and what you have been up to.
What will I do when you are back home? I will miss your accounts of the adventures.
Enjoy! Keep sharp and on top of the game.

Hello to you both - what an incredible adventure that you're on! I took a quick look through all of your blogs posted in March & April and have saved it as a favorite. I could relate to your time in China having just been there in October & November - hot pot, the sights & smells, babies with open bottoms on their clothing. How did you ever manage to take that picture? Take care on your journeys, have fun & relax if ever you can. I'm looking forward to seeing your pictures upon your return.

Hope you're getting a little bit of sleep you guys..? Now pls don't get lost on your way to Singapore...this game seems to be slowly getting more "challenging"!
Thanks for the published birthday greeting Jan... I had to work but had a nice dinner waiting for me and hung out with my friends for a while after. Good Luck on the next leg .... :-)
