I really enjoyed visiting Sneaker Street too, and all my time perusing galleries shops restaurants and bars on HK Island. We had a foggy day on Victoria Peak too, but not as bad as yours. See some of our pix on our blog. I'm sooper glad I found your site - thru entrecard. I will live vicariously thru you as you proceed on your travels.

It is predominantly Muslim, but if it is the first Muslim country you have been to, you'll leave (hopefully) with a positive image of Islam. I got stuck in a tiny town near the Cameron Highlands one night. No buses. No hotels. Nada. I was left with only one option. Knock on doors and see if anyone would put me up for the night. I got a bed at the very first door I knocked on - that wouldn't happen in the UK, nor probably the US! Kuala Lumpar is great btw. Are you going there? If you like food it's a fantastic place to be - Indian, Chinese, Malay and Thai options everywhere you look. The street food is safe and good! The internet was good in 2003 when I went so I'm sure you'll have no probs there. I loved Malaysia when I visited.
