Despite living in #Durham for almost 50 years, I still marvel at the Castle & Cathedral, the #RiverWear & the bridges. People pay to visit this beautiful city, but we can see it from our bedroom window! ❀️

Love KL. I used to live in Singapore as an armed forces brat in the 1960s & I remember going over the causeway to Jahore Bahru & sometimes visiting KL. It's certainly changed since then !!
