Botanical Garden Great

The British left a lot of legacy behind in malaysia. The Botanical gardens is one such legacy, complete with all kinds of flora and fauna in the form of 2 types of monkeys. Our day started off with a coffee, bagle and newspaper, followed by a visit to a Buddhist shrine, then Hindu temple, then gardens, then lunch at a beach resort, followed by a trip to an art dealer ($$$). Here are the pics.
