From the title, i don't mean that Malaysia is getting 'hip'. At least not with all the hanky-panky going on in Malaysian politics. I wonder when Hollywood will be getting the rights to make the saga into a blockbuster. Actually, what i meant from the word 'cool' is really the literal meaning... it was really cool during my visit back to Malaysia...well except for the 2nd day i was home. It was burning hot like a furnace, but later i realised it was because a storm was brewing...the rain reigned for a full day the following day.
.
Hmmm...this photo was taken while i was travelling along the East Coast Highway, from the direction of Kuantan towards Kuala Lumpur. If your first instinct tells you this is the haze from forest fires, then you're wrong. It was actually a very misty day... really nice. I hardly get to see this anywhere in Malaysia, let alone a highway.
Wow... Sunrise Heaven? Nah, this was actually the view from my hotel bedroom in Cameron Highlands ( more of CH stories to come next time). It felt like we were actually staying above the clouds.
Hmm...perhaps i was right. We were 5,300 feet above sea level... and look at the temperature gauge that says '17.7 deg C'.... fantastic... it was pretty chilly but a good change from Singapore weather, nevertheless.
And this is Genting Highlands, drenched from heavy rain. Look at the heavy downpour coming down.
Even First World Hotel with its array of colours didn't stand out amidst all the fog. I think the weather was around 20-ish degrees... it was warm indoors, but whenever i walked towards any exit i could feel the cold winds seeping in.
26.1 Deg C it says here...but this was the temperature inside our hotel in Awana which is situated mid-hill near the Cable Car station. It was the perfect mix...not too cold and not too warm for me. Right now, it's back to hot old Singapore weather for me =(
