A real city, finally
From Ben & Jenny Abroad in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia on Nov 07 '06

Now I'll go ahead and say straight out that a city ain't a city unless it's got skyscrapers. And KL succeeds in this, claiming that the Petronas towers were the tallest buildings in the world until a few years ago when Taipei ousted them. We are loving exploring the different neighborhoods- Chinatown, Little India, KLCC, tons of Mosques and museums, and so on. Also the eating is a relief from the weeks of fried noodles and rice. There is so much diversity of food here, we even found a Mexican restaurant where we celebrated Jenny's unbirthday.

We also saw monkeys, and nearly got attacked.
We visited a mosque and learned the difference between converting and reverting to Islam.
We are going WAY over our alloted daily budget.
We visited the Islamic Arts museum and Jenny recalled her 5th grade history class with Karen Jernigan.

We stumbled upon KL fashion week.
We are still here, and will continue to update this entry and fill in the gaps when we get more time.
