Kuala Lumpur

Well, I'm moving to KL.

Siew and I went there by bus on Tuesday. On Wednesday I had an interview at a place that is near KLCC.

That interview was not bad. Actually, they want me to come back to do a demonstration class, with a real class this time!

We spent quite a bit of time after the interview in the KLCC area.

These are the fountains in front of the mall entrance to KLCC.

KLCC itself.

The skybridge and mall-front.

KLCC and one of the fountain sprays (the water is NOT coming close to the top of the building, it is just a perspective thing).

A building beside KLCC.

We played for a bit, taking pictures with our phones because we forgot to bring our real camera. We brought it with us to KL, but then left it at Siew's friend's place!

It was a cloudy day and there was no having proper pictures outdoors with a phone-camera. My phone camera has a flash, but it is not meant for outdoor images like these.

Poor Siew. The lack of lighting makes it hard to see her in these pictures.

Another try.

Siew and I sitting down, facing away from the towers.

The other side of the mall and part of the left tower.

We moved to a bridge and took a few pictures. There was a little more light, but still not enough.

Trying again.

Siew wanted to take my picture, I was being playful and took a picture at the same time.

Some other buildings visible in the distance. I do not know their names.

More Petronas Towers (KLCC).


These pictures were taken from inside of the mall below the towers.

Siew had fun laughing at me. I was trying to take these pictures while sitting on a bench. Then I got an idea!

I thought of sitting on the floor, hooking my feet under the railing, and leaning back to take a picture. I wanted to get the tops of the towers in the picture.

This is a big mall.

A fast-shot of my love.

While we were inside Kinokuniya we were able to get some nice pictures of the buildings around us.






A nice view of the pools, fountains and parks that we had just been in outside.



I tried to get an image of traffic in KL at night while it was raining. I failed miserably.

While we were at Mid-Valley MegaMall we saw one place that has a toilet that has a price. I think you pay them to wipe for you.

  1. Great pictures!
    I'm glad the interview went well. :)
    That is the BIGGEST mall I have ever seen (then again I haven't been out much lol). Wow!

  2. Yeah, it is pretty big. I think that Mid-Valley Megamall is actually bigger than KLCC is now.
    It is funny that at one point my mom was bragging to Siew about how big and wonderful the malls in Louisville, Kentucky are. . . she has no idea at all what a "real" mall is like! ;-)
    Kuala Lumpur has about 3 million more people than Kentucky. Making it about 4.2 million more people than my home state of Kansas.
