Malaysia KL part 2 - cause I took a lot of pictures.

These two pictures have nothing to do with Malaysia and everything to do with Brighton and her loads of personality. 

This is her Superpunch. I think Jace must have taught this to her

This is some weird ice cream Suzy got. it didn't taste good (the weird green stuff, I can't remember what it's called, starts with a C).

Here is a view of the Batu Caves. You walk up 300 steps or so to get to them. 

Here was a picture of our Guide, he was great. 

Here's a blurry picture of Suzy, Brighton and I. Brighton won't stop sucking her thumb. 

Here are some of the cool alcoves. Kate of course is not impressed. 

Brighton is not suitably scared of snakes yet. 



The girls had fun having a snake to hug (for only 10 Ringgit!) 



This is an Elephant and a Cow depending on how you look at the head. 

yeah, starting up the steps. 

There were these types of Monkey's all up the stairs. These were not nice monkeys though like the other ones in the other post. 



These Monkey's were very aggressive. If you had food, or other things they would try to steal it here's one who grabbed a guy's milk, opened it, and started sticking his paw in to drink. 

These monkeys would watch you like a hawk. Or a monkey. 


Here is Milk Thief

Here's one eating a half coconut. 

The kids sure were fascinated, then after we bought them ice cream and they started to get aggressive and try to steal it (they did Steal Calvin's Ice cream at one point). We had to watch them carefully and be willing to kick and hiss at them.


Here's Brighton Hissing at one.



There was a cool view looking up from the cave floor. 

Aaahhh, Gatorade. 



This was called Dark Cave, it was a side path on the way down that could be explored. There were fun Bats, large centipedes (like 4-6 inches long) and large spiders (venomous)  I sacrificed and volunteered to sit out with Brighton and wait for the 40 minute tour.  At one point, after they reached a suitable spot, the guide asked everyone to turn out the lights.  She said don't worry about the spiders, they don't move much from their locations. The Centipedes sure weren't shy though, Suzy said that some of the kids got fairly freaked out and her heart was sure pounding int he absolute darkness. 


This could have been the last picture I ever took of them. Luckily, its not. Also, Brighton had to go to the bathroom at one point while they were gone. Luckily they let me into a side "employees only" path otherwise I would have had to walk down 170 steps and back up with Brighton.

Monkey's!

This is a normal house the villagers live in

We also got to feed elephants! the kids really liked this part. 







Jace stretching his little heart out. 




Here are the girls washing the elephant. 

They had a bit of a splashing spree as well with the boys on the other side. 

and each other. The boys had the right idea of standing upriver of the elephant. I did leave a few gifts. 

Oh yeah, we're so cool.

I really like elephants. But monkeys creep me out. I loved seeing the photos of this trip. Looks like you guys were traveling with some friends.
