 KL is a beautiful city! Clean and friendly towards visitors. Traveling by car or taxi is sometimes required resulting in a messy jam during rush hour. The food is very wonderful. Everything is worth trying!

Ubud

Experience

Repeatability

 An artisan village with lots of local artists peddling their craft. We found a great painting here for US$100. Similar size original would be $500-$800 in a flea market. Found a guy who made a custom wood hand carved picture frame for less than $15. And he did it in one day! Lots of talented artist and you will surely find something in Ubud.

 Dad doing great - pointed out 2 blue ribbon eels + a large green moray eel. FINAL THOUGHTS: Marlin Bay Resort did an excellent job and definitely recommend. However preferred the previous trip (both seclusion and diving) at Kadavu.

 Wreck at ~85ft. Did not penetrate, but looked like that would have been fun. Great snorkeling afterwards, almost touched small white-tip shark while free-diving. Freedove to 30'. Saw school of barracuda.

 Same as night dive of night before. Got a turtle ride (sort of). The turtle was small, but lively. When we let it go, it jetted away vertically.
