Well. I have arrived safely in Kuala Lumpur. It was quite the journey. Notice the title...While it is day three I crossed the international date line...So I lost a day somewhere in the airport.
The Malaysia Airlines flight started out in Los Angeles. The first leg of the flight was 12 hours. It was from LAX to Taipei. Due to the wind, we landed about an hour earlier. I don't know if anyone who is reading this post have flown Malaysia Airlines; but, if you had you will know about their 5 star service. Its amazing all the stuff that is included in your ticket:-Airfare
-3 Full Means
-
Complimentary Headphone-Blankets
-Pillows
-Entertainment...And the list goes on. Their customer service was outstanding.
After arriving in Taipei there was one last flight for the day that would get me to Kuala Lumpur. It was four hour uneventful flight.It was surprisingly easy to pass through customs and get our luggage. It made it! What a blessing. Finally, in order to get to the hotel I had to take an express train. The airport in KL is about hour outside the city. It is in a remote location.
The hotel that we are at is called the Crowne Plaza located in downtown KL. Very nice hotel...I have some pictures of the room here. Also...There is a great view of the world famous Petronis Towers.
Its about 3PM KL Time and we are getting ready to walk around town and learn about this area.
Tomorrow, we will venture out to Cambodia. The flight there is only three hours and the visit to AngkorWat will probably be my highlight of the trip.

hope you're having a great time! wish i could have gone, but since i don't play the lottery, there's not a chance i'd have the funds!!! good to hear that you semi-enjoyed your flight although anything that long would drive me crazy as my claustrophobia would take over! be safe!
