KL Day 1: November 1, 2009

We woke up early to have breakfast as we need to be at the airport early for our 11:20 AM flight. We checked out after breakfast and we were able to get a cab just outside the hotel. I checked our tickets and it did not mention which terminal our flight is leaving and so I just asked the driver to take us to the budget terminal because I assumed that Air Asia is a budget airline. When we arrived in the budget terminal, I was in panic when we found out that Air Asia is in their International Terminal and we only have less than 1.5 hours left to catch our flight.

There is a bus that can take us to the international terminal but we figured it will be faster if we take a cab so we run to the Taxi stand to get a cab going to the International terminal. The International terminal is really big and Air Asia has a lot of customers so there was a long queue at their check-in counter. We were really running to go to our gate as there is only 30 minutes left when we’re finish with the check in and security check. Good thing we made it just in time for our flight.

When we arrived in KL, we we’re instructed by the conference organizer to book a taxi before we go out of the airport and that is what we did. But the parking for the taxi is a little far from the gate where we exited. I find it also chaotic and disorganized that it took us a while before we were able to ride a cab.

The airport is also far from downtown and it is more than an hour drive. We arrived at KL around 12:10 but we arrived at our hotel pass 1 PM already. The hotel is also fully booked so it took us a while also before we we’re able to get to our room.

After checking in, we just had lunch at the nearby mall which is just beside our hotel. I will attend the ice breaker as the first event for the conference and since we really had a very tiring day and so we just went back to our hotel to sleep and rest after eating lunch.

Howell and Bela waited for me at our hotel room and since we don't have energy left to go out for dinner, Howell just bought take out food from Mc Donalds and we call it a night after that.
