KL Escapade

20 Feb - 21 Feb

Flew in into KL's LCCT around 12:30pm. Air Asia was on time! Only problem was....the luggage took SO LONG to come out!

Nelson and Alwin came to pick me up from the airport. Took about 1 hour to get to the hotel - Novotel KL. Supposed to stay ion Executive floor but there was some problem with the system. My reservation reflectd as deluxe room. Showed them the printout and the room was finally sorted out..... nice room!

Went to Pavilion to have late lunch at Sake Sushi. Alwin ordered a Lo Hei and that' s the 1st time I had it in Malaysia! Went to the money changer - 2.39 exchange rate. Not too bad..... Bought some stuff at the supermarket and then went back to the hotel to rest. Gave each of them an ang pow for health and happiness.

Ben came over and we went to Pavilion for dinner at Peppers n Lunch. The meal was average for me... After dinner, we headed out to the airport to fetch Raymond. We arrived late, thanks to the confusing signboards! The signboards are really bad in KL! The flight was delayed and by the time Raymond came out, it was already past midnight!

At the hotel, we sat down and chatted over a bottle of Bailey's. It was good catching up with him again! By the time we turned in, it was about 2+!

Got up at about 7:30am....and went to the lounge for breakfast. Poor Raymond, deprived of sleep to have breakfast with me! Hahahahaha! After breakfast, we went to KTM Terminal to meet up with Kent, who was going back to Penang. When we found out the coach ride was delayed for an hour, we decided to go to Pavilion for breakfast (again!). Half way through breakfast, Kent got a call that the coach ride would be departing as per schedule. No choice ... Kent had to quickly make his way back to the KTM Terminal. Still, glad to have met him in KL.

Went to the supermarket to buy some gifts before meeting up with Nelson. Raymond decided to put on his CNY's outfit....... Nelson drove us to his new apartment in Puchong. The apartment was nice and spacious. Then, we went to the nearby Leong Tau Foo place for lunch. So much LTF!

Had to rush back to pack and check out ... and then waited for Ben to come and pick us up to visit his place - not bad too! We had lo hei with Mel at their place.

One more stop to go - Mid Valley. Met up with Joi and SP over coffee. It was great catching up with them again!

Then it's off to the airport to catch the flight back to Singapore. After a short delay, we landed safely at Changi Airport.

The short trip to KL has been fun! Managed to catch up with my 2 God-Brothers. Seeing them getting on well with their lives, I am very happy for them. Had a lot of fun along the way, especially for Raymond....lots of laughter from him! Glad to have him on this short trip!
