Ba-TU!!!!!!! (Bless you).....
Hola mis amigos, como estan? I know, I know, it's Spanish, but everyone here speaks English so good, I haven't needed to learn Malay. (That grammatical error is an attempt at humor. I said Attempt..)I decided to give you some other language besides English, so there you have it. Happy now?!
Things here are as well or better than can be expected. The cast is getting along well and the show is beginning to take shape, despite the fact I'm not dancing too much. I'll give those of you who have seen me dance a moment to compose yourselves......Done? Good.
So, Saturday, one of our local contacts took the whole cast out for a night of fun and frolic in KL. We went to a couple of bars, which is a novelty to us, as bars are illegal in Shah Alam, the town where we are staying. There is a bar at the hotel(I believe the only one in town), but it's pretty expensive. I bought some Evan Williams at the duty free store when we landed in KL, so if I feel the need, I can always take a slug off that.(Woody, I thought you and 'Fast in particular would appreciate the brand of liquor I bought. Since there was no Jack Daniels, I got his closest living relative[his Uncle, I believe...]) So far, I really haven't had much of a hankerin' for drankerin', which is probably for the best, as much work is still to be done.
After shaking off the cobwebs Sunday morning; OK, afternoon, a bunch of us excursed(yeah, I know it's not a word) to a place called the BATU CAVES, thus the title of this blog. The Batu Caves are series of natural limestone caves that have been adopted as a Hindu shrine. It was pretty neat, especially the monkeys. Yeah, that's right I said monkeys. They were all over the place, as Hindus often leave offerings of food and drink at the many shrines and statues of deities. I finally put my camera to use, so you too can experience some monkey time(if you ask nicely...). One shrine, I swear, looked like an homage to Ron Jeremy. Who knew? Although, it would explain some of the monkey's behavior.....
OK, gotta go, but if you go to myspace.com and request me as a friend, or however that works, I posted a picture of the Blue Mosque across from our hotel. It's really quite pretty, so check it out. Until next time, fellow bloggers, I bid you farewell and sweet monkeys, Uh, I mean dreams.
Later,
Steve
