Balling, squash, volleyball, bastekball, anything with a ball and I'll be there.
Here I am sturting my thing at Bowling at One-Utama. It's a brand new alley with shiny balls and shoes that doesn't smell like grandma's undies... not that I have gone there.
All equipments are supplies at the venue. All you have to do is bring your own shoe. If not they will sell some to you. Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: 4th Floor, New Wing One-Utama Mall

Seriously, even if your not into motorsports (I'm not), it's well worth checking out the events calender for Sepang International Circuit if you're spending some time in KL. It's not hard to get to (located near KL International Airpot) and makes a different day out.
You can see what's on and book tickets online - I actually got my tickets via email and fax though to make sure I knew what I was getting - then have tickets posted to you or collect them at the circuit. If you choose to collect them you will need photo ID, we weren't made aware of this, but were lucky that Jonathan had his driving license in his wallet.
The tickets are very reasonably priced, particually compared to England, but you can't take food or drink (even water) through the gates - everything is sold inside at a slightly inflated price. It bumps the cost of your day up a little, but not noticably.
The giftshop is cool - loads of good souvenirs and they're really cheap compared to England - I mean, they don't give stuff away, but we expected to pay way more considering it was merchandise.
All in All - An excellent day out! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Sepang International Circuit Sdn. Bhd.Phone: +6 03 8778 2240Directions: Sepang International Circuit Sdn. Bhd.

 | |  |  | White-water rafting - 08012005 | |  |  | |  |
Never in my mind did i think white water rafting - a sport associated with the great outdoors like the U.S. and Europe - would be available in my backyard.
This involved an approximately 7 hour bus ride up north from Singapore, to the town of Kuala Kuba Baru (hope i got it right) in Selangor, Malaysia.
Well, it was quite an adventure being my FIRST white-water rafting trip, with either 7 or 4 to a raft. The best experience must be that of the boat capsizing(which i unfortunately did NOT experience), at which point one gets to soak thoroughly in the cool Selangor River. The flora and fauna that we encountered on the 2.5 hour trip was also quite amazing. I don't list them down here simply because i'm not enough of an expert to know what exacty they are!
A highlight was a waterfall where we were told to take a break, just before encountering the toughest rapids of this trip. The toughest rapids, we heard, would rate at least a 3!
Worn out shoes were recommended by our organizer, so that you can throw it away once out of the water. Spare clothes is also necessary seeing the you will DEFINITELY get wet and of course ideally, a water-proof camera to capture the moments.
