A Friend of mine I had gotten to know really well in NZ, now works in Malaysia has taken his time off to come and pay me a visit in KL. It was indeed such a delight to see him after such a long time, 3years I think. For those who know him - he is still the same!! If any changes in a good way ;)
So the weekend started off with a clamped car followed by a lot of swearing. A roadtrip to Genting Highlands was really when it started. It really blew me a way to see such a difference in climate within a 2hrs drive from KL. Top of the mountain there lies a massive entertainment villa. Casinos, theme parks, restuarants, bars, clubs, shopping, hotels, etc, etc. This all surrounded by a mist that pretty much swollowed everything back into the surrounding forrest.
Next day we found lunch at this far away place near the old airport. The food was the most amazing, far out man!! Needless to say, too full to move afterwards. Thanks bro that was awesome, delicious, too good to ...... speachless!!
Oh yes, a boatride searching for fireflies. About a 20km stretch of Selangor River lies one of the largest firefly colonies in the world. At night you paddle up the river and the mangroves along the riverside are flashing with little white sparks, thousands of them. It is simply magical to see this beautiful creation of the nature. I don't know why the fireflies chose this river, why these trees, why here and why now? It simply doesn't matter - the magic is here, then and now.
It was a sweet weekend bro - thanks heaps. Most of all it was great just catching up with you. Hope to see you again sometime. Take care of yourself
