We set the alarm for 7.15am this morning, because we'd heard that to climb the famous Petrona Twin Towers (formerly the world's tallest buildings), you have to start queueing for tickets at 8.30am - it wasn't all bad though, they were free. Setting the alarm so early did no good at all. For one, we hit snooze and didn't bother getting up and then, after breakfast, when we did make it to the towers - we found that they were closed on Mondays... d'oh!While we were in the area we had a look around the shops. Like Singapore it was shopping mall after shopping mall. After a while we caught the monorail to the bus station, before catching a bus out to the Buta Caves. From the street, you have to climb 272 steep steps up into a series of caves. The caves are quite religious and contain different temples and apparently some Muslims carry huge ceremonial items to the top, which must be very difficult - we struggled with small bottles of water and the camera.
When we got back to the city, Nikki started to feel worse than ever so we took a slow walk back to the hostel and Nikki spent the rest of the day in bed... poor Nikki.
It's ok, before setting the alarm early again I checked, the Petrona Twin Towers ARE open tomorrow!
