Not sure if this is gauche or not, and it could potentially be part of the DO plans (TBD) - I'll delete the post if it is either:
I'm thinking of heading to the Batu Caves (morning) and Ayer Panas Hawker Center (afternoon) on Thursday 1/14 if anybody is in KUL at this time and wants to join me.

Keep in mind that you might get a little hot and sweaty climbing the stairs at Batu Caves in the tropical heat, so do allow some rest/recuperation time before your next activities.

Batu Caves
official Do outing (though I doubt I'd go again, being a bit
older and more out of shape than last time). Beware the
monkeys!

Plan looks good. Too bad I won't be able to come up for the weekend.
Quick question on the Petronas Towers though, haven't been there for a few years but back then, the only way to go up to the tower (to the bridge which actually isn't very high up) is to queue up at 8am (or earlier) to obtain a ticket for later part of the day. Has this now been changed or should attendees expect not to be able to go up?

E-tickets are available as long as they are booked at least 24 hours in advance. Sunday is wide open all day. Didn't check other days.

thanks for the e-ticket info, chchkiwi. Looks like it's ~$20 per adult online.
Anyone want to check it out (Petronas Towers skybridge) on Sunday? It's not part of the official plan and there's nothing planned on Sunday between lunch and dinner.
