It´s Thaipusam today. This is the 6th consecutive year that I´m missing going to Batu Caves to celebrate it. Thaipusam is such a great festival among the hindus in Malaysia. It is a 3 days fest starting with a silver chariot going from Sri Mahamariamman temple in Jalan Tun H.S. Lee in Kaual Lumpur to Sri Subramaniar temple in Batu Caves. The journey is about 11 kms. From that point Thaipusam starts. Since then, peole just don´t seem to sleep until the chariot returns to it´s original place 2 days later.
This is so speacial as Kuala Lumpur has been pronounced as public holiday for Thaipusam. Thank you Lord Muruga.
