Day 3

Another day, another few ringitt.
Highlights Lake Park with sculptures, national monument, orchid garden and hibiscus garden.
Also very much Islamic Arts Centre, cool, calm, peaceful. Respite from the heat, beautiful surroundings, architecture and exhibits.
Also central markets again, cool, not calm, but OK. Fish nibbling feet, eating dead skin cells; delicious Thai food, pretty colours.

Babbling fountains within Islamic complex

Low lights, rip off taxi drivers... offering highly inflated prices, but we are wise to that and told them no thanks..... though Di was a little (well a lot actually) ruder than that to one of them. Back to hostel early.
