My last week at Langasuka Resort was lazy and relaxing, me enjoying Mario Puzo's novel "The Last Don" with cold beers on the beach. Sometimes I had the company of Jacek 34. He is a Polish TV reporter on a vacation there with his wife and daughter.
Mostly very warm sunny days but one rainy too,with a very heavy thunder storm just above us.
I had bought the book at the Langkawi airport, and after reading it the most pages as well as the cover were loose. On Monday before my flight to KL I managed to change it at the airport's book store without any problems to another Mario Puzo's novel " The Sicilian".
My new friends John and Carol had invited me to visit them here in KL, and I delightfully had accepted it. In the first evening John took me to his private K Club, where I had a jolly good time with him and his many friends. Afterwards we had a marvellous dinner. Carol had prepared an excellent lamb dish for us , and we ate it all with some good red vine. Th next day John and another of his friends David took me to Genting Highlands. After one hours drive trough beautiful landscapes, we arrived to Asia's longest, 2,4 km cable car route up to the mountains, where the Genting casino world is. It took 12 minutes in small condola partly high over the rain forest to reach the top over the clouds. Yesterday noon we first visited with both John and Carol the Chinatown having a light lunch there with two jugs of Carsberg beer and later we went to Royal Selangor Pewter factory, where we could see
among other interesting things them making the Trophy of Formula 1 Grand Prix of Malaysia. Hopefully this will be brought to Finland by Kimi Raikkonen or Heikki Kovalainen on March 23. In the evening we had first some drinks at David's place, with his ex wife Eva ,originally from Brno in current Czech Republic, before having another excellent meal at Suzi's Corner Restaurant.Today we spent three hours in the nearby Negara Zoo, where we had great fun especially with a 3 years old Orang utang and with some acrobatic gibbon apes, which arranged a special show to us.
Tonight I shall fly to Johannesburg but before that I can once again enjoy Carol's fantastic cooking.
