"The brick is heavier but the pile.. but the pile is too heavy" im died haha

[@WheretheJones]

lol. Same here!

[@globalwanderer91]

I really want to visit the Batu Caves! Definitely on my to-do list for when I visit Malaysia next year!

[@WheretheJones]

Can't come to KL without visiting Batu and the towers. You don't want to catch the curse...more on that in an upcoming video.

[@TREADtheglobe]

Great Vlog guys - we were vlogging there the month before - we loved KL and Malaysia. You video took us right back there - thanks and keep making these great clips

[@WheretheJones]

You bet. I will check them out.

[@aka020]

Appreciate the efforts that your entire family including children took carrying the bricks & pales of sand up the steep hill, for the Hindu temple. Great to see you inculcate respect & acceptance of other cultures in your kids, from a young age. This is what's needed in the current world, to make it less chaotic & livable again....

[@WheretheJones]

Our pleasure. I agree with you.

[@joanspencer6399]

Beautiful, I'm glad I got to see without walking the stairs

[@WheretheJones]

lol.

[@hijazzains]

There are several waterfall or rivers you can visit near your place like the Kemensah waterfall and chalet.

[@WheretheJones]

hijazzains that would be great.

[@nazfromqueens]

Bland got it right about the baby monkeys :) it's great watching your channel grow so fast.. got any tips? ..i think monkeys like tacos

[@MrKidzDesignarc]

actually at KL sentral there was a mall.. just ride that escalator near the burger king. and there is NU sentral mall..many food vendor like subway chicken rice shop etc.

[@WheretheJones]

Yah, we found that out, later on. I lot more choices.

[@AhmadFauzi-dj6uv]

Nice video 👍👍☺☺..welcome to Malaysia

[@WheretheJones]

👍👊

[@muhammedshahiduddin5904]

I had been Malaysia in 2017. But I missed the batu cave. In my itinerary batu cave was excluded.Today I'm watching this in your vlog. I saw the statue far away on the way to genting highlands.

[@WheretheJones]

I am glad you have been watching these. We wil be coming vack to Malaysia at the end of this year.

[@massabranexplorer3330]

now batu caves totally look different n colourful

[@32beckam]

[@WheretheJones]

[@billwampler9608]

Great job guys!

[@WheretheJones]

thanks...from the whole fam!!

[@32beckam]

Good deed boys. Good deeds.

[@WheretheJones]

Those boys are big believers in karma!

[@Your.Uncle.AngMoh]

16 flights of 17 stairs from memory. I walked up and down them in February. In my late-50's, unfit, and 120+ Kg, it was a struggle.

[@WheretheJones]

I bet!

[@zdronft2356]

Recommended Place: Fireflies Park Resort and feeding the eagles at Kuala Selangor

[@WheretheJones]

Thats the first I've heard of that. Don't think we can fit that in this time, but will go on the list for next time.

[@NRin1]

I'm from malaysia. nice channel..

[@WheretheJones]

Thanks!! 👍

[@sofiaambrose1649]

Welcome guys

[@WheretheJones]

Soffie Ambrose thank you.

[@sleepyowl5252]

There's not much in kl. If u guy's looking for place to go try visit putrajaya, there is cruise n lunch. Chow kit road, kampung baru for foodies. Try to go night market. If you wanna see more of Malaysia visit Terengganu, Penang, Melaka, Kedah, Perlis, Kelantan. ;-)

[@WheretheJones]

Syaza Solehah cool. Tks.

[@amirfuadh]

The ticket machines do give change, actually.

[@WheretheJones]

Amir Fuad Hussain yah. It was first time. Didn’t realize it till we went back and got some change.

[@mongo9474]

Go to Penang is a food paradise

[@WheretheJones]

Mongo Ming That's what so many people keep telling me.

[@hijazzains]

You should try going to the Forest Research Institute Malaysia (FRIM) in Kepong to experience a rainforest. Uber/Grab there.

[@WheretheJones]

hijazzains I saw that and was very tempted. Will checking that out next time around.

[@gundam4596]

besides FRIM, i recommend Bukit Cerakah(National Botanical Garden) in Shah Alam. you gonna spend your whole day inside bcos there are many activities and places to visit in that place. you can take ktm komuter train from KL Sentral till Batu 3 Shah Alam or Padang Jawa. then take uber/taxi ride about 5km.

[@WheretheJones]

That is a great suggestion.

[@HazeeqFakhri]

You guys were went to Batu Caves!!?? And I went to Butter Case!! 😂😂😅

[@WheretheJones]

lol 😆. Batu Caves is lower in cholesterol 😅

[@ayadalzahron]

nice video

[@WheretheJones]

Thanks!!

[@carnagekabuto9759]

Looks like a lot of construction is going on in Batu Caves, wonder if they can complete all of it by Thaipusam.

[@WheretheJones]

I *think* they are planning on it. In fact I think I remember seeing a video just several weeks later where there not more "bucket" or "brick" requests

[@partiubikayu5698]

I think it's cheaper to take uber or grab than taking the train for all the family members

[@WheretheJones]

Yep

[@wannaziranwantaib9414]

Correct me if am wrong... I assume you guys staying somewhere near Jalan Jelatik in Setiawangsa.. If my guess is correct, by taking lrt to KL Sentral meaning you guys going southbound, then northbound again via KTM Komuter toward Batu Caves...that mean distance traveled is much further via rail transport as compared to road transport (grab)...thus the reason why the cost was more expensive

[@WheretheJones]

Wan Naziran Wan Taib your guess is spot on. Definitely the reason for such a large price difference. But we have since made some more trips and Grab barely beats out the train in terms of cost. However we still take it because Bman loves trains so much.

[@MrCyberizal]

nice bman.. good journey..

[@MrCyberizal]

wan naziran haha, i didnt see ur replied, true .. its cheaper and less time .

[@WheretheJones]

👍

[@WheretheJones]

Bman says "cool"

[@ashtriana1]

less time depend on the shuttle schedule... i am not sure how it runs now... haven't been to batu caves for a long time now... as for cheaper its 2.80 per person .. and the feeder passes before this cause 1 ringgit.. don;t know if that is free now....

[@WheretheJones]

ashtriana1 ok. Makes sense. We want to broga hill as I mentioned in another comment and worked out just about the same cost to travel the exact distance from station to station but when you factor in rides to the station and away from the station to the destination it was much cheaper to just use grab. So even if we used the right exact tram Grab still wins in the price and time category.

[@ashtriana1]

haha you are making a u-turn detour using the train... actually u can go to the gombak by lrt then take a feeder bus to batu caves..fyi you can also catch a bus to genting frm this staton....

[@WheretheJones]

Would that be cheaper you think...and less time?

[@ashtriana1]

the time depend on the shuttle schedule ( but gombak station is only 3 stations away from setiawangsa and i think it takes 10 mins - 15 mins... i am not sure how it runs now... haven't been to batu caves for a long time now... as for cheaper its 2.80 per person .. and the feeder passes before this cause 1 ringgit.. don;t know if that is free now....

[@ashtriana1]

and food option in KL Sentral...are not only the usual suspects but there is a food court opposite the kelan ajaya line station... serving local fares (briyani among others)

[@MrCyberizal]

take grab/uber from gombak lrt station. cheaper.

[@ashtriana1]

no wonder they don't suggest this option... there are no shuttle bus that stops in front of batu caves... you have to stop at sri gombak and walk and it takes about 30 mins to walk there.... where as if you take a uber from thegombak lrt station it is just a 12mins drive

[@MrCyberizal]

I think u guys place near setiawangsa LRT?

[@WheretheJones]

yes sir. right across the street.

[@MrCyberizal]

Where the Jones no wonder. Looking at the maps.. setiawangsa to batu caves is very near. Grab uber is nice. And by taking lrt . U have to go backwards to the kl sentral passing by the city and take the train.. and that is why it takes hours.. the other option is to take LRT from setiawangsa station to Terminal gombak. From there to batu caves using grab will cost u around myr6 but the journey was nice right. 😘Love your family videos.. the videography looks very sharp especially at the house area

[@WheretheJones]

mohd shahrizzal thanks for the compliments. Im a total amateur just trying to make it look good.

[@vincentchin88]

Can you take them to BurgerLab instead? A successful local burger joint.

[@WheretheJones]

Vincent Chin this is the first I have heard of that.

[@vincentchin88]

Where the Jones I brought my British neighbor to have an In and Out alternative burger with charcoal bun. He was so upset with me the following week because the desire still lingered in his mouth and he can't go due to work! Burgerlab first restaurant is located in Sea Park in the suburbs of Petaling Jaya. Reckon a 25 mins grab ride on a Sat for you. Try the in out alternative and the Nasi Lemak burger. You may Google or KZbin them.

[@WheretheJones]

Vincent Chin that's hilarious. And surprising for an In&Out fan. Well unfortunately we are heading for Thailand right but maybe next time. Hopefully someone craving a good burger Traveling will see this comment. Not easy finding a good burger in KL. I tried.

[@Blackdeathpeppersauce]

dont worry about the monkeys, just dont look at them in the eyes and kung fu kicks lol

[@WheretheJones]

LOL

[@IZZULFAIZAM]

Are you currently residing in Malaysia? KL is an awesome city, but you can try Penang too! It is a haven for foooodddddddd

[@WheretheJones]

Yes. KL for just a moment longer. We have heard sooo many good things about Penang. Someone the other day referred to it as "food heaven". I don't think we will be able to visit this time around.

[@MrCyberizal]

I think batu caves just had finished a ceremony by looking at the rubbish there. Maybe wedding maybe spirutual.. u should try dark cave

[@WheretheJones]

Ah. ok. We did do the dark cave tour right after. Just didn't make it on the video.

[@MrCyberizal]

Where the Jones wow great...

[@WheretheJones]

👍

[@Your.Uncle.AngMoh]

Try going there even two weeks after Thaipusam.

[@WheretheJones]

Can only imagine.

[@afiqiskandarafiq7195]
