It was raining upon arrival to Port Klang this morning, but it had stopped
by the time I got off the ship and did not start up again until it was time
to head back to the ship - great timing.
There was a lot of haze today, but not near as much as during my last visit
six weeks ago - this time you could actually see the KL and Petronas Twin
Towers.
At the King's Palace, the flag indicated that he was currently in residence.
Had an interesting stroll through Chinatown and Petaling Street Bazaar with
all kinds of knock-off items for sale, lots of fun to watch the vendors and
shoppers.
Last stop was a visit to the National Museum which is the custodian to the
historical heritage and culture of the country. Got to watch many children
who were amazed and intrigued by the mannequins in the displays. One child
actually sat on the lap of one of them and was trying to pinch his cheeks.
They also had a Proton car on display - this car was the first of the 30
cars to be manufactured during its test run stage. The Proton Saga car made
history by becoming Malaysia's first national car when it was completed
4-18-85.
There were lots of signs downtown from organizations, schools and businesses
with condolences to the passengers of the lost Malaysian flight 370.
