I'm seriously thinking about going to Malaysia for winter break. Was originally thinking Australia, but it would probably be too hot for visiting Uluru then? And according to my students' essays, all people do in Malaysia is: 1. eat, 2. shop, and 3. party. I've spent the past 3 years teaching about Malaysia, and it's driving me crazy not having been there. (Of course, I'm not allowed to go on the school trip, since I'm just a "temporary" teacher. But I'm still in charge of preparing the Malaysia curriculum. Because that makes sense.) Anyone want to join me? And does anyone know a good site for getting airline tickets in Japan? Or a travel agency recommendation?
