The exodus has begun

Its six thirty in the morning in my hotel room in Kampar. The hotel is situated by the old road that used to be the main highway leading to Ipoh going north or to Kuala Lumpur going south. Outside I can hear the constant sound of vehicles streaming past, mostly heading towards Kuala Lumpur I presume. The exodus has begun. Its been that way since five. Although the traveling has been spread out over the last few days, today is expected to be the day when the most number of vehicles will travel back to KL. I hear of people thinking of traveling in the wee hours of the morning just to avoid the expected jam. As for me, I will stay one more day before traveling back. Hopefully by then, the roads will have cleared. For today, I will eagerly wait for the news to see how the story will unfold.
