Second Day in Kuala Lumpur



Lunch

Today we were planning to shop. We had planned to go to China Town and got a taxi from the hotel. However, the driver convinced us to first go to a leather factory outlet store for handbags - he waited for us while we browsed the store. We didn't like any of the bags so now we were heading to a batik place and other Malaysian crafts. Even this place was  bust! We didn't buy anything there either. Our driver had now deserted us and we were stranded at nowhere and had to walk for a while to get to a bigger street and get another taxi. Now we were were heading for Central Market. This was mostly an indoor market with gizillions of little stores offering an awful lot of stuff. We had lunch here and the only purchase was a watch that Ninni bought. However, it has already stalled so we will go back tomorrow and complain.

After all this shopping, which didn't result in much, we headed for our daily fix of Starbucks accompanied  by Chocolate Tuxedo cake which was (is) delicious! After Starbucks we headed back to the hotel to rest and we had planned to tackle China Town in the evening. That did not happen and instead we went to a Mexican restaurant for Quesadillas and beer (yes, more beer for me too!). China Town will have to wait until tomorrow!
