"Oh What a Night"

Well, my head was fine. Our son, however... James woke at 1am and demanded to watch the Teletubbies. Then he insisted that Mummy read him his Richard Scarry book "Yellow Tractor, Mama". Next it was "Pushchair", so Daddy could be seen wheeling a chatterbox in a Grobag round the hotel lobby at 2am. Anyway it wasn't until about 3 that we realised what the real problem was: James had missed a meal and was hungry!! So it was after 4 that we'd fed him and finally got him to sleep. zzzzzzzz.

(Sorry the pictures weren't visible until today - they looked great on my Desktop. I'll put bigger versions up at the 'proper' website)

 Anyway, we fly to Auckland tonight, so no idea how long before I get the next post up.

Today we've been up the Menara Kuala Lumpur (421m). It was seriously hot and humid, and the short walk to the base of the tower nearly killed us... and that was just to get to where the bus picked us up to go up the last part.

   

There were fountains at the top plaza, and James would have climbed in if we'd let him

 

The views were spectacular, though it was a bit hairy in the lift (I don't think I'm bungy jumping material)
