Kuala Lumpur Airport


Had a good day yesterday, getting organised for the trip. Spent it in Surfers Paradise in town, found everything we needed. Finished off the day witha trip to the beach, very refreshing, and then headed back to liz and ron's for the final suitcase tweaking and preparations for the big trip.

Left Brisbane airport at 11.30pm and flew into Kuala Lumpur airport thismorning 5.20am local time after a 8 hour flight. We took a transit hotel room to catch up with some sleep and shower. We thought about making a quick trip into the city, but decided against it much to Kirsty's disapointment! She is after a new camera, but we found one at the airport that will do the job. The girls enjoyed the flight, particularily the in flight entertainment, and I found there was suficent legroom, but sleep is difficult. We have another overnighter tonight, and then the fun begins as we navigate our way out of Paris, to Bordeaux. When I heard the U2 were performing in France while we were there, I looked into getting some tickets, but the $1000 price tag for the four of us made me think again.... still I havent given up yet!
