First few days-Singapore to Kuala Lampur

We arrived in Hong Kong after 13 and a half hours of an Air Canada flight, but had bulkhead seats and no one in the middle so as pleasant as economy class can be!  One hour layover and then on to Singapore on Singapore airlines, 20 per cent full so lots of space to stretch out.

Arrived Changi airport at midnight and our luggage arrived too.  Headed to Crowne Plaza Hotel and had a good sleep.  Lovely modern room, garden swimming pool outside our window, SBX just inside the airport. We left by cab at noon and were on board our ship "Legend of the Seas" by 2 pm.

No days at sea, we landed next day in Kuala Lampur and took our first shore excursion with our Cruise Critic host, Cedric.  Not an elderly British military major but a 35 year old Asian guy from Toronto!  Off to the countryside to visit a temple, then a tour of the city.

Departure Day minus 1

The usual tasks of packing the suitcase and loading the backpack, always made difficult by weight restrictions and Homeland Security banned items!  Trying to fit a 4 litre box of wine into my suitcase, but it is probably too heavy.
House is clean and tidy, but it is a shame to be missing the Spring blossoms.
We will take the 5:45 am bus to the 7 am ferry, and then on to YVR.  Dear Neil has given us some Air Canada lounge passes so waiting for the 1:30 pm departure to Singapore via Hong Kong should be quite pleasant.
