Backpacking Malaysia-KL 2015 New Year Celebration

This is it!  This is the day that I've been waiting for.
Its New Year's Eve Countdown.
From Bukit Bintang, there's a skybridge connecting Pavillion Mall to KLCC.  This is about 10-15mins walk only.

Around 9PM, I leave the hotel and since its still early, I searched for a nice view to take a photo of the KL Tower that I had to walk several blocks away from Bukit Bintang.

Then, I had to walk back going to Pavillion Mall

first time to see well lighted Petronas Tower, and its amazing.. 
seems like the two towers are holding hands... :)

I had to wait for two hours for the countdown, good thing, there's a live show in front of KLCC.  

after the fireworks, the Petronas Tower is covered with smoke..

Going back to the hotel was a nightmare.  Since there are a LOT of people around KLCC, I wasn't able to take the same route coming here.  I thought, taking the other route is just parallel from the skybridge, but I found out that I took the longest road going back to Bukit Bintang, I arrived 1:30AM.  Luckily, I was able to meet the Israeli couple who took the same route with me and we had a long chat while walking.

New Year's Day, time to leave KL but I still have some time to explore around so I decided to go to Chinatown.

I'm addicted to capture the KL Tower-hahaha...

Chinese lanterns in Jalan Petaling

There's this famous temple that I planned to visit in the morning, but when I got off the train station, it was completely deserted.  Though I know where to go, I still asked the guard for confirmation.  I need to cross the overpass bridge and walk along the highway going to the temple.  I felt the area is not secured for me to walk alone, so I decided to leave.

took this photo inside the train

Since I still have more time to explore, I decided to walk the same route the other night going to KLCC.  The scenery is different in the morning.

there's a public swimming pool in the park

Now its time to leave KL.  My solo travel here is very memorable.  Good thing, there's a Tous les Jours cafe in the corner of the street that's where I have my daily bread for breakfast.

I still have few money left, so I computed the amount I need to buy frappe and sardine puff.  I miscalculated and forgot to include VAT, selling price here is always VAT exclusive, but upon paying, VAT is added to your total bill.  I asked the cashier to cancel the sardine puff as my money is short with few MYR.  Then from the back, the supervisor called "it's okay, for complimentary".  Whew.. Happy New Year from Gloria Jeans Kuala Lumpur Intl. Airport.  I got a free sardine puff. :)
