A Towering Afternoon

There hasn't really been a dull moment at home for the past couple of weeks, and a lot of it (if not all) has to do with my grandma and cousin who are visiting from India. I haven't been able to spend as much time with them though, mostly due to the long hours at work. Hence, last weekend on Christmas day I seized the opportunity to take them around KL - namely to visit the towers that have defined the city's skyline over the past couple of decades.

We decided to travel by public transport (no cabs), and I must say we managed to cover quite a bit in one afternoon. We started off with a walk around KLCC, before heading over to Pavilion to take a look at their wonderful Christmas decorations.




Along the way we also passed by my workplace.


Finally we headed uphill to KL Tower, and went up to the observation deck for what is arguably the city's best vantage point. My only qualm would be the hazy weather which affected the clarity of our view. Nevertheless, I had to make the most of it and quickly flipped out my camera to take a few photos of a few places around KL that mean something to me. Here are a few of em'!







Personally, I enjoyed being their guide for the afternoon along with my sister. It really was quite the experience - totally different from my previous walks around KL of which there are many. Their visit this time is a short one though, and I'm definitely going to miss em' once they fly back to India come next week... But life must go on, eh?
