We went to KLCC on 2-Oct-08 by Komuter and LRT. It was really crowded in the trains. It was the Hari Raya holidays. KL folks have made their yearly exodus. Traffic on normally busy roads were light and flowing. It was the opposite on public transport - buses and trains were full of foreigners.  Foreign workers had only 2 days holiday for the whole year. They took the opportunity to unite with family members or meet up with friends. One of the rendezvous points was KLCC. I felt like I was in a foreign land. We brought Gabriel to see the musical fountain, and the “arching” fountains where Gabriel had fun running underneath the water arches. Disappointed that the skybridge was closed. Gabriel saw the Petronas Twin Towers (or better known as the twin corn cobs) up close for the first time.
