So it was a bit of a headache working out a free and easy 4 day 3 night KL itinerary for a three generational household, with the oldest being my 69 year old mother and the youngest being my 11 year old son.

But we managed to make something of this trip, and so I thought I should record this itinerary for posterity.

Day 1 – (i) Arrive afternoon and lunch at Little Penang Kafe at KLCC, (ii) Petrosains The Discovery Centre at KLCC (the son loved this Science Centre), (iii) Petronas Twin Towers, and (iv) dinner at Pudu Wai Sek Gai (go earlier than 8:30pm for the char koay kak, fried salted egg kuey teow, and 四眼仔胜利炸鸡 – fried chicken)
