Today was huge. For a country that is so hot, you would think the public transport would be better so people didn't have to walk around all day, but no.
Once again, I found it unbelievably hot and sticky, made worse by the fact you can't wear shorts to a temple if you're a girl. The only long pants I had with me by the time a realised this were denim jeans, so today was quite uncomfortable.
Beside the mild heat stroke and increased swelling in my rolled ankle, it was a cool day.
I started the day heading to Batu Cave - a temple literally inside a cave. The huge monument out the front was amazingly huge, and the 277 stairs were almost worth it (in jeans, mind you) to see the inside of a cave decked out as a Hindu temple.
There was a lot of wildlife in the area, seeing as it is slightly out of town, including a heap of monkeys, and a cave tour inside one of the connecting caves, crawling with life, and almost pitch black at times.
After the temple, I tried to seek refuge in a park closer to KL. Unfortunately, there isn't quite the public transport information I need to get around, and it took me about 2 hours longer than it should have. (There are transfer stations that involve walking a kilometer, across roads and down side streets...)
The park was pretty cool though. I didn't explore the whole thing, and I plan on going back, but the highlights has to have been a Bird Park which had a show involving Macaws who knew colours and could follow magic tricks.
Tomorrow, some city sights xx
