Back to Saturday's tour. We got out of the bird park and rode past the National Mosque. Someone explained later that there is a boycott against buying US products because of US support for Israel.
I forgot this building was and I'm trying to get these up and out before we walk out to the plane. It's raining fairly hard and we have to walk out onto the tarmac to board the plane. We have some time still, so maybe it will stop.
This is in an area of KL called Chow Kit.
We got off the bus and wandered down to an Arabian/Yemeni restaurant. J wasn't too excited. Probably the meat dishes were tastier. It was pretty bland after all the spicy Thai and Malay food. But they were very nice and I was stuffed.
The Arabian restaurant is on the right. They put us downstairs, but there were all these people coming and going to the upstairs. It turned out there was a balcony there where people could smoke. From there we could see some excitement. the traffic was being rerouted, so we went to see what was happening.
It was a big Chinese New Years celebration. The street was blocked off, there were bigwigs. One guy came by shaking hands with people behind the barricades. We have no idea who he was. Here is some music and singing. Maybe, I'll get some video up, but don't hold your breath.Kuwaiti Ibrahim and his Dad were also waiting for the parade. They offered us some food but we'd just eaten and I was way too full.
