Well, they let us into Malaysia. The border crossing went really easy. Basically we got onto a bus on one side of the border, went through Singapore customs, got stamped, got back onto the bus drove across the river, disembarked off the bus, filled out some form, brought it to the really friendly immigration guy and whalla, we are through.
We decided to check on if the overnight train would have space for us today. We have tickets booked for tomorrow but thought we would check and yes, they did. So we are hanging around for 5 hours eating really cheap food and drinks till 7pm when our train leaves. It is the Malaysian KTLM train line if anyone wants to check it out. We are booked in a 2nd class sleeper train to Tanah Marah (town) and will take a ferry tomorrow to the Perhentian islands. We will probably stay on the island called Kecil. White sand beaches, swimming and snorkalling. Can not wait....
Back to now. We are loving the cheap food here. Wow, everything is so cheap. We ate 2 huge Malay dishes plus 2 big bottles of water and 7 cans of pop all for the low price of $9 Canadian. Then we found a McDonalds, where we are now. Ice cream cones are 33cents, flurries are $1 and a sunday $1. Then we had some french fries $1.20 for supersized. I am getting full now.
Off we go to our train. Night night.
