I have wanted to visit the Hindu Temple at the Batu Caves complex for over 12 years now. It has just never been the right time and I will say it was definitely worth the wait. Here is some background info. The Batu Cave complex is located about 14km outside of Kuala Lumper Malaysia. It is a very easy train ride from KL Sentral Station where you are dropped directly in front of the Caves. The limestone caves are said to be about 400 million years old and were once used as shelter by the indigenous Temuan people. In 1878 a Hindu temple was dedicated to Lord Murugan within the caves.

KL Bird Park in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia
We had a great time at the KL Bird Park. It is the largest open air aviary in the world with more than 3,000 local and foreign birds. It is huge with plenty to see. Plus the monkeys have broken in and are wandering about stealing the fruit for the birds. So that does keep it interesting.

We found a Taco Bell! Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
Well we had to go…it is a rule when you are in a foreign land that you must go to the fast food places from your home country to compare and contrast. At least that is Jeffrey’s rule. To be honest I think he just wanted Tacos…lol  To the counter we went. It looked right with all the branded images and outfits. The ordering was a bit of a thing. I have never been asked so many questions about a number 1 meal (2 Supreme Tacos and chips or fries)….ummm fries with tacos…no thank you. But then the questions started….
