Traveling!

I've travelled a lot in my life. I went to many countries in Europe. But in May 2010 I went to Malaysia which was very nice and very informative.  I've been there with my grandfather and grandmother. My grandfather worked in Malaysia, he is a shipbuilder and he sells ships.
First we went by plane to Kuala Lumpur Airport. (Kuala Lumpur is the capital city of Malaysia).
When we landed there, a old friend of my grandparents was there to pick us up from the airport. My first impression when I was at the parking place, was that is was so warm there. Like you are walking against a big wall of thick air. We went to the house of Razak (the friend of my grandparents, Razak is his last name, when you're married in Malaysia, they call men with their last name, actually his name is Mohammed) there I met his wife Rosie. We got fresh mango, so delicious! After we had eaten mango, Rosie and I went to the market for sate for dinner. While we were waiting I drank laichee juice. The sate was made above a sort of barbecue, but than above fire. At the market we also bought mangostine, it smells like laichee, but than it has another shell. While we were eating, the second daughter of Rosie and Razak came in, Naharia, she is 21 years old, but a head shorter than I am. After dinner we went to the apartment of another old friend of my grandparents, Din. He has two big apartments, and one of them was our 'house' during our stay in Malaysia. The next day we went jungle tracking! My grandmother and I went with a guide through the jungle. First we had a very easy path, but be careful don't grab trees, 'cause there can sit big, fat, hairy caterpillars on them! After a while the guide asked me of I wanna do the easy way, or the difficult way. I choose the difficult way, through the jungle along a river, that was so special, I could drink from the river, I had never done that before. After we went jungle tracking, we picknicked along another river, after we had eaten something we went swimming in that river! The next day we want to world's largest flee flight, walk in aviary! There was a place were you could on a photograph with birds on your head and arms.Very funny ;D. I also went to a wedding, a real Malaysian, wedding. They are there Muslim, so there was a imam who recite something from the Koran. I've done much more, but it's too many to tell everything.
I went back alone, 'cause I must back to school :(
