Full day! Yes we started outa at around 8am, hitting up a large shopping center for some kryspie creams and more importantly free wifi! Dad called my grandma (his ma) and told her we had arrived safe and sound, and then I called up my mother dearest and chatted for the first time since I had left (but I emailed her already...don't worry!). After that we headed out to check out the KL petronas towers, which were up to a few years ago the tallest towers in the world, but thanks to stupid India they are now only the tallest twin towers in the world! Tall is only really a word though cause these babies were gigantic!!! We snapped some shits and then headed inside to try to catch a lift up the the sky bridge connecting them at the center. Sadly we found out that they only have so many tickets per day and those were already gone!!! What??? So lame! So we trotted over to the other side to get a few more pics from the right angle with the sun and all, then headed back to the mall to look for a mobile 3G thumb stick for wireless internets on the go in India! After finding what we needed we piped over to the golden screen cinemas to get in one last bit of western entertainment by catching a double feature! The expendables and Salt...both great movies and what's more American then an action packed afternoon! To pack more action into the afternoon we decided to go to the largest indoor theme park in Malaysia...conveniently placed in that very same mall!! Go figure...we also had a theory that it was the only indoor theme park in Malaysia, but why ruin a good thing right?? So off to cosmo's world we went! By far the best part of this "theme park" was the roller coaster which Wasserstein actually quite impressive boasting two cork screws and a loop! We must have rode the roller coaster about 5 times or so and there weren't many people in the joint so we could just hop on when ever! I even managed to shoot video of the whole ride from the front with my iPhone, so I'll get that on youtubes when I get a chance!! The other notable thing about cosmo's world was the first thrill ride that actually made me wonder if I was going to puke! This monster was called the DNA mixer, and for good reason! The ride was basically two rows of seats on a platform that lifted off the ground and then spun around really fast at varying angles really fast! I was actually the only person on the ride because dad didn't want to ride with me and the girl operating the machine had to go and buckle every seat that wasn't being used...all but mine, so when (to my relief) the ride was over the girl asked me if I wanted to go again...while I wanted to get as far away from the machine as I could, I did feel bad for all the work she had to go through for just little ol' me, so I swallowed my pride (and my lunch) and took another spin (literally)! The other down side of this ride was the bar in-between my legs to keep you in the seat...well on every single revolution of the cursed machine my junk got slam slam slammed into that bar over and over!! So not only did I feel as if I was going to loose my lunch I also though I might loose my ability to have children O.o by the time the ride was over the second time I was sweating! But back to the roller coaster we ran :p after we had ridden out the theme park till it was dark, we hoped back on the metro and went back to the twin towers for some brilliant night shots! With the lit up tower safely stored in our camera's memory cards we headed back to china town for our hotel rooms and only a few hours sleep for we had to continue our travels at 3am towards Sri Lanka!!
More to come :)
