Hils and Doug...

Hils had said she wanted to "run away" for her special birthday,
so we were so thrilled when they decided to run to us...

We all met in Penang, where we had her birthday...


A beautiful "Little Black Dress" tailormade was her birthday present from Doug

3 days before the birthday, getting measured...
Of course no Little Black Dress is complete without the right shoes,

Doug in his element bargaining for Hils shoes...
The finished product, ready on Hils Birthday...

Tried on at the Tailor, of course with the new shoes!
Hils birthday dinner was delicious...


Lots of sightseeing in Penang...



then we drove to Cameron Highlands - much cooler temperature...
and so much to learn about tea.  
Most of the produce in Malaysia is grown in the Cameron Highlands

Tea as far as the eye can see...
After Cameron Highlands it was off to Kuala Lumpur.
Hils and Doug brought a beautiful bottle of Penfolds for us to enjoy for Jen's birthday - thank you


The street food stalls are amazing


as were some of the wine bars (haha)...
