Day 50, Jamming In KL For The Forth Time, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

These are my feet

In KL once again, which is really annoying because KL doesn't have that much to offer except maybe some good eats. So it is a good time to catch up on some movies and go for pointless walks around town. Bringing me to the point of the above photo. My jandles, or flip flops as everyone else in the world calls them, are pretty good until it starts to rain. Then they became a death trap, after wearing them everyday they have worn nice and perfectly slick on the soles so that it becomes very slippery whenever stepping on a smooth surface, to which most of KL is covered in. Many a time have I slipped and either landed on my butt or pulled an amazing recovery act and remained standing. Yet I continue to wear them.

Day 14, Hot Hot HOT, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

View up the EVIL Petronas Towers

First impressions of Malaysia:
Hot, like a relentless burden outside.
Wet, when it rains it pours.
Climate Changing, wiping out the rainforests for palm oil plantations, and the Petronas Towers are owned by a oil corporation which is trying to expand throughout the world selling its petrol, f***ers...
Yum, food, ah great times.

Day 13, Melbourne Storm, Melbourne, Australia

Windy Pier at St Kildas

There was a very wild storm in Melbourne today. The forecast was for lightning and lots of rain, but it was mostly wind and a short one hour blast of rain. I tried to walk down the above pier and nearly got blown off. Luckily nothing went wrong with my flight out to KL.

Day 12, Riding the Free Trams, Melbourne, Australia

Melbourne Tram Interior Example

When it rains in Melbourne, cause sometimes it ain't blisteringly hot, a fine and dandy activity is to take the free tram around town. A pleasant city loop gives you a quick overview of the CBD with a bit of commentary thrown in for an informative ride.

Day 7, Raining, Tauranga, NZ

The Tauranga Alternative To Walking In The Rain

So it was raining. Seems to be raining every other day round the top of the North Island. But never fear, playstation is here. And with a game like Call of Duty, with the ultimate extension of Nazi Zombies, there is never a need to go outside again.

In this game you are basically trapped inside a small room with some boarded up windows and there is a constant stream of Nazi Zombies which break in and try to attack you. You luckily have a large amount of weaponry available and so can blast them all to hell. We made it to level ten yesterday, was pretty stoked about that.

The funny thing is, is that there is a German flatmate living here. We try and not mention the name of the game when she is nearby...

Day 2, Rain Rain Go Away, Auckland, NZ

Why does it rain?

When it rains you can't go outside. When you are on holiday you want to go outside and experience the world as it is. So not being able to go outside means there is no holiday activities to do. I sit inside waiting for something to happen.
