Zoo Negara Part 2 - Pandas/Zoo Negara 2. del - Pandaer

Zoo Negara has two grown pandas and a cub. We did not see the mother and cub but we did see the father chilling in the enclosure.

A visit to the national Zoo - Zoo negara Part 1/En tur til den nationale zoologiske have - Zoo Negara 1. del.

Even scorching hot weather did not deter us from our next "must do" - a visit to the national zoo, Zoo Negara. Unfortunately the zoo is undergoing extensive renovations, which make the conditions for the animals rather poor. However, there were still many enjoyable moments. So here is part 1.


Selv den brandende varme kunne ikke holde os fra vores næste "skal ting" - en tur til den nationale zoologiske have - Zoo Negara. Desværre er zoo'en under omfattende ombygning, som giver dyrene dårlige betingelser. Der var dog stadig mange gode stunder. Her er 1. del.

Petrosains@KLCC

Another must do on our list is a visit to Petrosains. Petrosains is an interactive science discovery centre focusing on hands-on science. The highlights for us are:

Endnu en "skal ting" på vores liste er en tur til Petrosains. Petrosains er et interaktiv eksperimentarium. Højdepunkterne for os er:



The Dark Ride - a 4 minute ride with information and displays Malaysia's nature/"Dark Ride" - en 4 minutters tur med oplysninger om naturen i Malaysia

And finally.... donuts and cakes! Og til sidst ....donuts og kager!

Doing Ampang Park/Turen til Ampang Park

Ampang Park (established in 1973) is KL's first shopping center. I remember childhood trips to KL with two important stops - Globe's silk store and Ampang Park. Later Ampang Park became my favorite shopping spot and it still is. The shops are filled with goods catering to the locals and I can find all I need here. Today it was Dunkin donuts (better than Denmarks), Big Book store, Allen Khoo - Tailor, Capitol Optician with the lovely Jaclyn and finally food!

Ampang Park (etableret i 1973) er KL's første indkøbscenter. Jeg husker mange barndomsture til KL, hvor en tur Ampang Park indgik som en fast del. Senere blev Ampang Park mit foretrukne indkøbssted. Butikkerne bugner med varer til de lokale og jeg kan få alt her. I dag blev det til Dunkin Donuts (bedre end i Danmark), Big Book Store (forhandler discount bøger), skrædderen - Allen Khoo, Optikeren - Jaclyn og endelig lækker mad!

We love sharks/Vi elsker hajer

S.E.A aquarium in Singapore is impressive and the Aquaria in Kuala Lumpur though much smaller delivers a satisfying dose of marine life. Today we had some great encounters with sharks.

S.E.A akavariet i Singapore er imponerende og Aquaria i Kuala Lumpur er mindre og leverer stadig en tilfredstillende oplevelse af livet under havet. I dag fik vi nærkontakt med akvariets hajer.
