Kuala Lumpur Bird Park 20.10.13

Today we went to the Bird Park using a taxi. 17 RMB.  Arriving at 9.30am.  The Bird Park covers a huge area and is completely covered by very high netting  so many birds are free to wander etc.  Unfortunately many others are in cages.  Some I could understand but I would have liked to see the parrots, at least, flying free.  Still, we saw many birds we had never seen before although I felt that there plenty of scope to broaden there varieties.  Another taxi back to the hotel about midday for a rest out of the heat and humidity.  After lunch took a taxi to SOGO which was recommended to us but turned out to be a very middle/lower Department store.  Another taxi to another shopping centre but it was full of little shops selling mostly watches, phones and accessories etc.  Noisy and crowded.  Walked to the Fat Computer Centre where the crowds were unbelievable and the noise level intense. This kind of shopping is not for us but interesting, nevertheless.  Yet another taxi back to the hotel.   Dinner once again at the Irish Pub.  It was convenient with good food. 
Taxis are cheap here and readily available.
