Kota Bharu

Aloha! This time from Kota Bharu in the North of Malaysia. The weather is really good: sunny and hot. I met up with Anna a few days ago in Kuala Lumpur and from there we took the bus into the Jungle at Taman Negara. We stayed there on the riverside for 2 nights and the forest was really awesome. We did a couple of walks through the jungle and up the mountains. On the downside, we had some rain and that is when the leeches come out. Bleh. When we stopped to check my feet were bleeding, I had 8 bites and 3 of the things still hanging around in my socks. Bleh! The Germans next to us seemed not entirely at ease with it and neither was I actually. Anna was spared for reasons unknown. The next day we decided to skip the walking at took a boat through the jungle back to civilization. When we arrived we took a long train through the jungle up North, where we are now. This morning we visited some markets and had lunch now we will try to find where they make the traditional kites. Hope we will find 'm.
