good times and t-storms

If Disney was to make a city (and yes I realize there's already a D. World and Land neither of which I've actually visited) I believe it would bare a striking ressemblance to Kuala Lumpur. Possibly I've been in Asia too long but, to me, KL felt extremely orderly, safe, friendly and uber colourful. The buildings were all quite attractive and there were many a palm lined street. Even the Petronas Towers were very attractive and I usually find skyscrapers quite ugly.

The Petronas Towers.
I guess Disney would have made a more pedestrian friendly city than KL actually is. The core of the city is actually quite condensed so it was easy to cover distances on foot. That is until your side walk disappeares and you find yourself negotiating the flower beds in the middle of a traffic circle.

I had a really good time in KL. The hostel worked out, there was a nice courtyard with shelter from the crazy afternoon thunderstorms, good people and a nice vibe.
