Todd: So, you were saying you went to Laos, you went to Thailand, by any chance did you go to Malaysia?
Phil: Yeah, I spent, I spent some time in Malaysia. The first stop, we went there from Singapore, just taking a bus and we ended up in Malacca. Stayed about five days in Malacca. Malacca's nice. There's a lot of history there. We learned a lot about the colinization of Malacca, the Portuguese 1 and then the Dutch, and then the English and then the Japanese, and, yeah, it was a really interesting place. There was old St. Peter's Church. There's several Mosques 2. It's a good place to spend for a few days. From there we went to Kuala Lumpar. We didn't really spend much time in Kuala Lumpar. We had spent a week in Singapore and were pretty tired of cities. so we only spent I believe two or three days in Kuala Lumpar, just visits from shopping malls, the KLCC, the Petronis Towers, and yeah, that's basically what we did in KL, and then we went to the Cameron Highlands, and if you like hiking, the Cameron Highlands is a great place for you. I don't know, they might have 16, 17 different marked trails. There's a whole lot of unmarked trails. We spent a month there. I think I only went on only six hikes maybe during that month but once again we were being lazy, and yeah, if you're an avid 4 hiker then you're certainly going to enjoy the Cameron Highlands.
Todd: Yeah, actually, I did the hike in the Cameron Highland 3 once, and foolishly I started my hike at about 4 o'clock and I thought I could make the loop of the trail at the time, and the sun started to go down, and I was in the jungle, and I was worried about getting back, and I just made it back,
but I was pretty scared for awhile.
Phil: You were lucky. Some people don't make it back.
Todd: Really?
Phil: Well, Jim Thompson. Maybe you've heard of him.
Todd: Yeah, actually, why don't you tell the people about Jim Thompson?
Phil: Jim Thompson was a trader. I think he was maybe based in Hong Kong, but I'm not sure. Maybe it was based in Malaysia. He went hiking. I believe it was 1967, in the Cameron Highlands, and no one has seen him since. He's just vanished from the face of the earth. So, be careful if you go hiking there. Watch your step.
