GOING to Batu Caves for Thaipusam is an annual affair for me and my family from Johor Baru. For the past 20 years, we have carried pal kudum (pots of milk) in thanksgiving to Lord Muruga.
We drive at night to reach Batu Caves to catch the early morning darshan (prayers) on Thaipusam day. This year, we reached Batu Caves on Feb 8 at 3am and began to walk up the 272 steps.
