I was expecting to have very little to say today as the day was set aside for travelling from Singapore to Kuala Lumpur but I have a couple of bits to cover. The mode of transport was a coach which involves stopping a passport control buildings at the boarder. One arrival at the Singapore boarder control there was a barrier blocking the entrance road. Somehow the coach driver failed to see it and just ploughed straight through, much to the displeasure of the Singaporean police. Due to the drivers sever lack of observation a boarder crossing which from observation of other coach parties should take about three of four minutes ended up taking an hour. Fortunately our driver know how to drive his coach in a very fast risk manor which meant even after an hour delay we were only five minutes late getting into KL. On arrival we were greeted by the owner of the hostel for the next few days. By hostel I really mean luxury apartment suite and by hostel owner I mean family friend Wilma Webster (Mum of my oldest friend Mark). Wilma and husband Doug have a pent house apartment over looking KL and I think Charlotte and I will be very comfortable during our stay here. This evening Wilma fed us a delicious meal and suggested some great places she may take us, and things we can do over the next few days.
