MOVING ON

Hey Guys Just wanted to check in and let you all know I'm doing well. Have Moved on from KL to Cameron Highlands where it's a little cooler. I'm actually wearing a jumper!!. Cameron Highlands is about 4hrs Bus from KL north. I'm staying at Father's Lodge and sharing a room with Dave my new found English friend. YES FRIEND!! We met on the bus ride up here and I can tell you it's much better having someone who you can talk to. Tomorrow we're going trekking and he's actually going to trust me not to get us lost...Not to worry tho super Steph has taught me all she knows about the ways of the bush..Just ask Dan. Our 2k trip turning into a two hour marathon. Na were going to stick to the well worn track.
I decided to leave KL after the hostel had no water or working toilets for 2 days and people trying to scam you into playing cards and gambling your money away.Speaking from Experience. I was lucky and saw through it. I was also getting a little frustrated with the chaos. I'm going to stick with Dave for a bit since we're heading in the same direction.We'll stay here for 2 days then head to Panag to Georgetown then go Langkawi to catch some beach, sun action. Look out Malaysia here come my seriously white legs!!!
Then I'll let you know> will probably be heading east coast way to a few beach towns then south to Taman Negara National park to do some trekking and check out the bloody HUGE bird eating spiders in the rain forest. Then Singapore to Borneo then Bruni. But let you know a little more specific when I do.
Haven't got sick yet ..Touch wood but I'm sure it's coming. The water here is drinkable but I still try to stick to bottled water unless I'm desperate. I'm eating with the locals which is quite a feat trying to order when I don't speak Malay/ Indian and they don't speak English. But it works. Food pretty good and a meal is usually RM$6 which is about less than 3 bucks.
Mostly people are nice but if a Muslim man buys you dinner or a drink he thinks it's his right to more.So I found out when I went to dinner with Susile a girl who worked at the hostel in KL and some of her male friends last night. the men here are slimmy but I just tell them to piss off nicely.
I'm bigger then they are, so they keep reminding me..So they wouldn't take me on.
Anyway all is good and I am well.
Hope you are all keeping well.
Love Lizzy
