Did YOU like the durian, KM? Thanks for your interesting pix!! (I've heard, the durian SMELLS HORRIBLE, but tastes wonderful! Guess it's very individual decision!!)

Hi kmherald,
I envy your pics 'coz they're so beautiful whereas mine (my "Medan" article) were quite mediocrely. But I have that pic of Mesjid Raya which is so majestic!
