Love at first TASTE

We have fallen in love.
Yes, true love.
Roti bread!! It is the key to all existence. Pure deliciousness!
Right across the street from our guesthouse we had our first encounter with this delicacy. Banana Roti. WOW! We tried a plain one today. Just as yummy. We can't figure out exactly how they make them. They are somewhat similar to crepes, but so much better they really don't even compare :)


Today, our last day in Malaysia, we made our way out to the Batu Caves. We had to fight the bus system to get there but after about an hour of trying to find the bus, we found it... bus 11.

The caves are huge and they are usually used for ceremonies. We either just missed the ceremony or they were just getting ready for one in the next few because they had all the stages and stuff half prepared for something huge. And speaking of huge, they have a Buddha at the bottom of the stairs that pretty much reaches the top of the mountain that the caves live in. Bright and shiny gold.






So we climbed up the 267 stairs barely noticing all the monkeys that were climbing with us. No joke, they were right next to us. Everywhere. Jenna you would have been in heaven. There were a few kids with food and they practically would crawl all over them until they got the food they wanted. You could look up the walls of the caves outside and see them crawling and jumping all over the place. It was pretty cool.
Off to Singapore :)
