Last week I travelled to Kuala Lampur, Malaysia with Ethan's under 13 Regent's Sports Team for their annual competition for all International Southeast Asia Schools. Ethan had worked very hard over the last few months training for several events. He came home with the gold medal in discus, the bronze in 25m backstroke, the silver in the freestyle relay, and his basketball team received the bronze medal. It was our first trip to Malaysia for Ethan and I. We took advantage of the one day he wasn't competing and travelled to the city center. It is a muslim nation and feels a lot like Singapore. Clean and a great infrastructure. We enjoyed browsing around the mall in the twin towers, with many high-end, designer stores. We didn't buy one thing!! But enjoyed our taco salad at Chili's with Ranch dressing so much!!!It's a very green city with rolling hills so it feels so much smaller than Bangkok. We like Thai food so much more than Malay! I roomed with a Thai mom from our school, we were supposed to have twin beds but their idea of twin beds was quite different than ours. We had to sleep in a king bed with blankets folded down the middle of the bed-just different!
