At 4:50 pm I thought I was early. There was already a long queue outside the shuttered door of myBurgerLab in Sea Park. Designer burgers are all the rage these days. Will try again when I am in the area another day.

I keep a pair of Red Wing shoes in the car. Is supposed to be the highest standard for safety, allowing the wearer to step on 10,000 volts and let you walk through a bed of nails without puncturing your sole. But in the real world, it is almost never practical to put the shoes on. Time is the essense if you need to get a breaking pic. If you are a OM-D user, you should also carry the Pen Pal bluetooth accessory all the time. The picture was transmitted to my tablet, watermarked and uploaded as it happened.
Fire was in a village in the Gombak area just now.

These two big pipes supplied water form the Klang Gates Dam to most parts of Kuala Lumpur. Not sure if they still do. I used to come here as a kid while playing truant from school. The challenge among us was to cycle on top of the pipe. What crazy things we do when we were kids. I feel dizzy just standing on top of it now.
The river is now shallower due to silting and the rocks and boulders are all gone. There were no human settlements nearby then. I remember eagles soaring above the quartz ridge. All is gone now.
