              Well, the cat seems to like it. The nice green floor belongs to the
              lovely Wheeler guest-house in Kuala Lumpur. Wheeler's serves free
              extensive rooftop diners on Friday.

Leisure & pleasure; a distinguished self-portrait !

Found this place in the back of an Indian temple in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Sri Mahamariamman Temple is the oldest (1873) and richest Hindu temple in Kuala Lumpur. Before opening the doors to the public it used to be a private shrine to the Pillai family.

           The green entrance of a Malaysian temple in Kuala Lumpur. Not that far
           from Petaling street. Right on the edge of China town. Known as the
           green temple or Chan See Shu Yuen it is one of the oldest surviving
           Buddhist temples in Malaysia. Best known for the specially-crafted
           terracotta friezes showing Chinese legends and mythological scenes.

               Kuala Lumpur graffiti combined with my own work. A photoshop 

               tryout, but might be something to do for real.

Petronas Twin Towers on a rainy day, Kuala Lumpur, Malasya. Still impressive, you can cross the sky bridge between the 2 towers for free if you like to. Meaning: wake up in the morning, go over there, wait in line for one of the 1300 tickets which are issued each day. Or order and pay in advance. Closed on Monday.

Leisure & pleasure: toilet break

 

If you can reach them....(at the National Art Gallery in Kuala Lumpur)

good to know 0002

Good idea!

Get a bus map whenever you stay in a big city. It's fun traveling by public bus and it is cheap.
In Hanoi it can be a lot of work before you achieve your goal! You need to go to the transportation department.

The Bangkok bus map is fabulous. This is a 2009 example,
sarcophagus has one from around 2002, didn't change a lot though.

Kuala Lumpur bus service is a dog without proper information. Not one bus driver seems to have a clue to where the other lines go.
