Well folks as the title suggests I've been upmarket for a week! Blew the budget to pieces but ate like a king. I managed to get a bit of a discount on the published rates at Shangri-la Rasa Ria but It was still well above my usual budget & standards. Needs must however. The Rasa Ria is a fantastic place. I'd recommend it to those who can afford it. The sunsets there were amazing. Staff were fantastic, food was excellent, beds were comfy with mattresses over a foot thick.
You can see my 40RM breakfast above just waiting to be devoured. I'm sure I put weight on this last week. I did share it with Sonia, I promise. Breakie was included in my room price. Did you notice the bed head? There's also that Hawaiian beer shirt again - it's well travelled is that shirt. A wicked sunset and of course the young Orangutan.
Swanley crew, no in depth account I'm afraid. You'll have to use your imagination.
So I'm now back in KK just for one night. I leave here at 7am Sunday morning, bound for Penang. Once there I intend to try & get into Thailand via bus/train on the same day. I'm aiming for Koh Samui, Koh Phang nan & Koh Tao. 1 month of Island living is what I have in mind. No need to see sights, just want to be a beach bum for now. Oh, and the beer is cheaper in Thailand. I've been on rations in Malaysia due to the cost, so bring it on.
So I'm off for now, I'll post again from Thailand. Take care folks, be safe.
