Andy was up early doors for his daily 10k circuit around central Bukit Bintang before catching a photo with the Nepalese porter.

This morning we went out to get passport photos taken for our visas to China, Cambodia and Laos. Thankfully this proved quick and easy and we now have the various country photos sizes required.
With the rest of the day at our disposal, we decided to take a trip on the mono-rail, before getting a train down to the ‘new city’ of Putrajaya.


Mono-rail time. So quiet, so respectful and so much better than travelling on the London Underground!




Interestingly the trains in KL have women only compartments so when waiting you’re required to stand in specific locations on the platform.


When we arrived in Putrajaya, it was like arriving to a party a day late. The celebrations for the end of Ramadan had finished and the place was so very quiet. It felt like we were the only ones in the whole place.







Despite the heat of the day, which was 35 degrees +, we strolled along the lakeside and marvelled at the beautiful state buildings and temples that sit along the water front.

As we moved towards the centre square and the Putra mosque we started to see more and more people, mainly men who were going to pray and make offerings.



The mosque is stunning and sits next door to the prime minister’s main residence and the man-made Putrajaya Lake.




With the heat rising and fatigue kicking in, we decided to pick up a Grab taxi and head back into the centre of KL. We have signed up for a 2hr walking tour this evening around old KL, starting in Chinatown.

As Michelle was feeling a little off colour, she decided to stay and relax at the hotel, so Andy had a gentle 2 mile walk to the meeting point in the glowing heat to join the walking tour.
On the way Andy came across some of the sights and sounds of KL, from the old (China town) to the new Merdeka 118. With a mosque and Chinese store in between.




Sadly the walking tour got cancelled, we suspect because of limited numbers, as the tour guide never showed up, so Andy was left to trudge back in the late afternoon sunshine.
The good news is that we are up on the 43rd floor of the hotel enjoying our last nights complimentary drinks and finger food. Such great hospitality, we will not forget our stay and will be looking out for other Capri at Frasers elsewhere in SE Asia!
