Stebbins, R. 1963 164 Asia Trip Bangkok to Kuala Lumpur Feb. 3 Left Bangkok on Malayan Airlines jet flight # 311 at 12:20 p.m. The crew was British. We flew at 34,000 ft. Flight time was 1 hr. + 55 min. Dart and I are travelling together. Saw a magnificent meander in the main river near its mouth as we were leaving Bangkok. The river had nearly doubled on itself to cut off an extensive embayment. Many stream channels suggesting complicated blood vessel system. We flew over water most of the way. Many small cloud puffs below. As we came in to Kota Kuala Lumpur, noted extensive tracts of what appeared to be original rain forest, even near the city. Much contour planting. Vegetable gardens. Temperature at airport 90° F. Scattered Clouds. Found a Otygozoon - like gecko in my bathroom at The Federal Hotel. It had side flaps, star and then skin on side of tail and along near side I tried to go. The animal was very agile and writhed its tail as I brought my hand near for capture. It was a very pale olive gray, without pattern. Dr. Dart + I took an evening walk. Great numbers of swiflets were clustered beneath building overhangs. Colonial
