Paris....... Idaho

After all my travel trekking, I just couldn't stay still. I had to go to Paris.......... Idaho. I wish I could say Paris, France. But, I guess this is the next best thing!!








Sarah, Shiree, and I. Lovely, Lovely friends! We are up in Logan visiting Sarah for the weekend.
Well, I have finished all my Asian travel trekking pictures. Finally, I am caught up. I hope you all enjoyed looking at my pictures as much as I enjoyed taking them and posting them for you all. It was a great seven months!!!! Hopefully my next adventure will be as fruitful.

Every Good Thing Must End

Well, my trip started just about how it ended. A back-pack, a suitcase, a travel bag, and a purse.





It was a bitter sweet end. I was happy to be heading home, but sad to say goodbye to all the great friends I had made. It was a seven months of vacation, coming to an end.

ha ha ha


I didn't take this picture, but I saw things a lot like this while I was traveling. Always AMAZED me. I mean, how did they keep their balance.

Last night in K.L., last night in Malaysia, last night traveling as the three amigas

Last day in Malaysia, and the last day traveling with Sarah and Lindsay. It was a bitter sweet day. One where I was ready to go home, and yet sad to be done traveling.


Shows the diversity of Malaysia. Chinese, Indian, and Malay culture.



YUMMY!! However, that was a lot of rice. One of the many reasons I needed to go on a diet after getting back to the states.





We found a church in Malay!! Best Sunday EVER. Probably partly because I had been traveling and wasn't able to go to church in a month. It was terrible to go that long. Heard the sweetest testimonies by a young recent convert to the church. Was welcomed into a diverse, and totally sweet ward. And, they held services in English!!

Who you need to give up your seat to on the metro.




Really!?


Petronas towers. They were at one point in time the tallest towers in the world. You go up to the sky bridge for a lovely view of the city.







ha ha ha. I have walked into glass doors before, so I appreciate the warning.


We got to watch a 3-D show before going up to the sky bridge.


On the sky bridge. We are doing our rendition of the two buildings hooked by the bridge.


Last night with all three of us traveling together.


Pretty!

Batu Caves

In K.L. (Kaula Lumpur) there is something called the Batu Caves. They are caves that have been turned into a Hindu Shrine. It was pretty cool.

We had to climb up those stairs...... so much work.


There were a lot of monkeys around. I believe they are sacred to the Hindu faith, but I could be wrong about that. They sure did get A LOT of food from the people at the caves.


That sign lied. This was at the top of the stairs, and I was very tired and hoping we really didn't have to climb more. But, inside they had more stairs.


Inside the cave.













My favorite Hindu God. Can anyone guess why? His name is Ganesha.








The monkey god. Hanuman.

K.L.

Yummy, that makes me want ice cream!
Various shots from around the capital of Malaysia (K.L.)













That little one says 'out of the box'



Another Muslim mosque that we checked out





Here we are being modest again.


How come they look so much more official than us? The girls here always made me feel immodest in my Bermuda shorts and t-shirts.


Some hot Colombian boys that we spent a part of the day with. Why you must always look fabulous when you travel!

Cute little couple





Cute family.


No weasels allowed? Good thing I left mine at home.







All three of us at the same spot!

If you are going to wear it, then wear it with pride.


Oops!



That leaf is HUGE!!!!
