Sightseeing, crafting, making new friends and keeping old ones.... all part of our three years (1096 days) in hot and often sunny Kuala Lumpur.

I did it!
It may not seem like much to some of you, but for me it was another step along the road to settling in - driving myself around. New car, new city, new way of driving (ie you push your way in at junctions and when changing lanes - and consequently have to be prepared to brake quickly to avoid hitting someone who is pushing in! - and you are constantly surrounded by scooters/mopeds weaving their way in and out of the traffic, often with scarily few inches to spare). By the way, I didn't take the above photo while driving - we were stuck in a jam at this point.
Our trip was a relatively short one, to Mid-Valley megamall, which lives up to the mega title - it is HUGE! We didn't buy much - we were too busy being slightly overawed by the sheer number of shops! Today we're off to a much smaller and nearer mall, for such glamorous items as shoe laces, printer paper and groceries!
I'll finish off with a fab photo taken by Caitie, with her iPhone, from our living room last night.

Sounds a bit of a nightmare! Good photo C.
Eeeek - sounds like you'll have to do the same if you want to make any progress on the roads! Lovely pic Caitie :)
Well done on the driving - you're braver than me!! Lovely view and great photo.
