Adelaide to Kuala Lumpur

Greetings from beautiful Kuala Lumpur! But let's first welcome you to our Japan & Kuala Lumpur FindPenguins blog! We hope you enjoy journeying with us over the next 4.5 weeks, even if it is every now and then.
We left Encounter Bay yesterday morning, fortunate to be able to get a lift to the airport with Shirl & Greg Hefferan who were flying to Vanuatu via Brisbane.
As we entered Adelaide Airport we heard our names being called by Ollie Stone, who is the son of our friends, Deb & Rob Stone from Loxton. We ended up bumping into Ollie on 3 occasions - he works at Adelaide Airport!
We enjoyed a coffee and green frog 🐸 cake each before saying goodbye to the Hefferans.
We then spent the day in Adelaide and saw the film "Kangaroo Island" - a very good Aussie film which will put KI on the world wide tourist map.
We had an uncomfortable night in the Atura Hotel at the airport, however, it was good to be there early to check this morning.
An 8 hour flight saw us arrive at Kuala Lumpur airport and, with lots of help, found our luggage and pick up point for our private transport to our fabulous accommodation right in the centre of KL - opposite Petronas Twin Towers. This city is spectacular at night. We are at a curry restaurant not far from Ascott Hotel. We have 3 nights in KL before flying to Japan.
The weather is, apparently, mid 30's during the day with balmy nights - a huge change from SA!Les mer
