We got a taxi to the caves, promised at 15RM. We didn't have the exact amount in change so we gave the taxi driver 50RM. He refused to give us change, claiming that we had misheard him and he had originally said 50 because he can't pick anyone up from the caves. Kelsey had clarified twice that he had said 1,5 before we got in the taxi, so he was obviously trying to scam us!! We put up a massive fight but he still refused so we gave up. To him it was a lot of money but to us it's only £3 each and really not worth the hassle! We will definitely be getting the train back home - only 2RM, and treating ourselves to a well deserved, stress-busting bev!!! The taxi driver drove off and picked someone up. 😡😤 it was probably going to happen at some point....
Determined not to let it ruin our day, we headed to Batu Caves. 
And climbs the 272 steps to the temple making friends with the monkeys as we went!

Tonight we went for dinner in Little India at a restaurant called ABC foods. We shared popadoms, a fish curry, a chicken curry and a lamb curry and two types of rice. Very tasty! 
Tomorrow we are catching a 4 and a 1/2 hour bus to our next destination, Penang.
Nice shot of the monkey, but who's that small fella sitting on the top step?
ReplyDeleteOh thanks!!
