Morning Walk around The Westin

Was up early. Thought of swimming but pool only opens at 7am. Gym is opened 24 hours. So I went down to check it out. There were plenty of treadmills and stationary bicycles, some gym mats and weight lifting equipment. Nay! I go for a walk instead. Downtown KL is quite deserted. There were one or two staff in resturants setting up and cleaning getting ready to open shop. Many luxury brands in the upmarket malls. It is nice to explore the place in the morning where everything is still closed. I can take the time to drink in the experience. Yes, the contract of the old and new as well. The back alleys of Bintang Walk are shophouses that probably date back to pre-war. However many more new buildings are coming up. I guess over time everything will change. It is hard to resist the almight ringitt when the land on which the shophouse sits is so valuable.
