Leaving KL

This morning we got up extra early to catch our all day train from KL to Singapore. It was raining cats and dogs when we left the hotel - and yes, both Esme and Rowan were looking for the cars and dogs as we left.

We all managed to slip and slide our way to the station on those treacherous floor tiles that seem to be everywhere and Esme and I ended up soaked up to the knees. 

After nearly an hour of waiting we eventually boarded the train and Esme and Rowan soon made a new little friend. Neither her nor her parents spoke English so a little 8 year old girl acted as the interpreter. Soon enough Rowan was giving Mila (2 years old) a lecture about Star Wars and the various characters. She didn't seem that interested. Then they started showing Esme's my little pony's and trading crisps. Their world was complete.
