Well after enjoying the beautiful beaches of Thailand, we went to visit family in Malaysia. Lance's cousin and his family live in KL and we were very nice to open their home to us. They were great hosts! We got to see Petronas Towers, which are the world's largest twin towers and second and third largest single towers. Another big attraction we went to was the Batu Caves. Batu Caves is a limestone hill that has several caves and temples inside. The big statue in front is Lord Murugan, and behind him are 272 stairs that we climbed to see the temple inside. They also have an annual festival called Thaipusam where millions of people come to show their devotion to the Hindu religion. We watched a video showing scenes from the festival and it's pretty crazy. Google Thaipusam for some interesting pictures. Our hosts also took us to the China Market and out for some yummy Malaysian food. We had a great time visiting and seeing the city, it was tough to leave.
