Trust the Lady to Drive.

And she'll bring you on a tour around KL city starting from Taman Midah to Loke Yew then Hang Tuah before passing the old Pudu Jail. Later on turning into Jalan Bukit Bintang passing Sungei Wang and then turning into unknown roads passing Hotel Istana, Wisma Goldhill and The Weld before turning out at Menara Hup Seng.

Proceeded on to Jalan Ampang with KLCC in full view, not to miss Avenue K, Wisma MCA, Menara Citibank, Corus Hotel and Ampang Park.


Turned into a Shell station in Jalan Ampang for a much needed refuel before proceeding into Gleneagles to get to the other side of the road ignoring the double line and faulty traffic lights, I think I lost 2 years of my life back there due to extreme suspense. Dropped me off at OCBC Menara Great Eastern to drop a cheque before proceeding all the way back to Menara Citibank to do our payments.

Then she turned into Jalan Pinang before exiting at Jalan Kia Peng where the Hakka restaurant is located and onwards to Jalan Tun Razak passing Pavillion and Chulan Square and all that. Then from Jalan Tun Razak instead of heading to Loke Yew, she took the Kampung Pandan roundabout way turning to Jalan Kampung Pandan passing the new Dragon Boat restaurant and Rendezvous.


Then it was Jalan Perkasa, there the stadium and St. Gabriel secondary school is located before turning into Jalan Jejaka towards Casa Ria and Maluri Cheras Jaya Jusco. As if she had yet to get enough of KL sightseeing, instead of using Jalan Cheras all the way back, she had to turn into Jalan Pudu Hulu of Kobena at the traffic light in front of PGRM. Which is connected to Taman Pertama and all the way to Jalan Kuari via Jalan Semerah Padi.


And finally reach home after a journey of around an hour and half (90 minutes) with my backbone on the verge of breaking into pieces from all those potholes and syawings from lane change.


And all we needed was to head to three destinations before heading home which is RHB Taman Midah, OCBC Menara GE and Menara Citibank. Which would usually just take us less then 30 minutes with me behind the wheels. So darling, next time I drive okay?

Muahaha, I actually kept quiet throughout the journey after advising her on which road to take before heading out to avoid the "You should have told me earlier" situations. So, I can blame her, :P.
