Dear Norma and Ted,<BR>It could be that the people did not understand you linguistically or culturally. (For eg Japanese dont seem to understand english jokes). It could also be that they are shy and do not open up to foreigners as easily as say, an American who you will tell you how many children he has, what he works as and what he thinks of anything within 10 mins of meeting you...

Hi Rosie! Small world, myself and 2 close friends will be in Malaysia for 8 days but in May, and we too are from Edmonton! I am glad i checked out all the responses you've had because we too are looking for more natural wonders. As touristy as it may end up being, we are really excited about the Firefly Resort, we have heard good things! Good luck with your trip! Teresa
