Day 21 of 100: TWO free birthday cakes!!



Today is Will’s birthday. We kinda took it easy. After an amazing breakfast at Doubletree by Hilton in KL, we went to Sunway Pyramid which is a shopping mall actually looks like the Luxo hotel in Las Vegas. You know, nowadays, most shopping centres in any major city look pretty much the same with global brand names and department stores. We then visited the KL Twin Towers. Twin Towers used to be the tallest building in the world. Even thought it longer is, the shiny silvery exterior together with the Muslim-inspired shape of the buildings make it very noticeable during day time. It is true that no matter where you go in KL, your eyes will always be on the twin towers because of the reflection of the sunlight. Don’t think the KL tower lost its sparkles at night. It became two huge spotlights that light up the whole city. Take a look at the pictures and you will understand what i mean. The skybridge linking the two towers are open but tickets will only be sold each morning. People started lined up early, like 6:30am even though the ticket offices only open at 8:30am. We didn’t have the ticket but i know i am going to come back and get up there one day.
















































Remember i said that Doubletree by Hilton in KL not only did all my laundry, they also allow me to order anything from the bakery/cafe and bar free of charge. And today is Will’s birthday so i guess it is perfect for me to get a birthday cake for him...free of charge... In theory, I could have every single cake and bakery from the cafe and then resell them for profits but i didn’t do that . :-) I only got 1 small cake for Will’s birthday.


At night, we went to an interesting restaurant at the basement of a high-end shopping mall in downtown KL. I causally told the manager that Will is the birthday boy today at check-in. Surprisingly, at the end of dinner, the French manager had ordered and prepared a birthday cake for the birthday boy. So we had 2 birthday cakes free of charge today....Lucky!



One thing about this shopping mall, one of the entrance is actually very sparkle-ly...check it out yourself.
