We started the day with breakfast at MacDonald's at Bukit Panjang Plaza where we would be meeting Daddy's friend, Chris and his family. At 6 am, C was already wide awake and very excited. When she saw Charlotte, C couldn't help but want to play with her.
We boarded the coach soon after and headed for the 2nd Link. C was jumping up and down on her seat and it wasn't till much later where she fell asleep; no wonder as she had been awake since 4-ish in the morning. We even saw the famous Petronas towers along the way.
Judging by the picture, you can tell that it was pretty hazy out there.
We reached Genting Highlands around 2 in the afternoon and it was really like a walk in the clouds. The last time Daddy and I were here was more than a decade ago and a lot has changed since. There are so many hotels here and the indoor theme park totally blows C away! She was mesmerized with the various neon lights and rides that were going on, up in the "sky" and waters.
We didn't take any rides on the first day because it was only half the day left and Daddy and I were quite beat so we went back to the hotel room and dozed off till dinner.
The second day was the more interesting one. We got for ourselves the day passes which allowed us access to all the indoor rides and we went on the ferris wheel where we had a good view of the interior of the theme park, we also went on the carousel for the hundredth time because C couldn't get enough of the horses.
Cheryl finally mustered enough courage to ride these cars. Initially she was afraid and didn't want to go on it. But in the evening, we asked her again and she agreed. She even rode twice because she saw one which resembled one of Bob's machine (Bob, the Builder!)
This is definitely Cheryl's favourite and she went on it for numerous times. She just loves the horses and her eyes lit up when I told her she will get a carousel cake for her 3rd birthday. You can also see Chloe with Mummy Cassandra and Charlotte with Daddy Chris on the ride too.
We went on many other rides too but they were all very children friendly. Daddy kept eyeing the more adventurous and thrilling outdoor rides but he didn't get to go on any as Cheryl and I couldn't ride them. Next time, Daddy, I promise that you will be able to scream your lungs out! :)
We even took a nice ride on the gondola and here you can see C enjoying herself and making funny faces at the camera. We ended the night at Starbucks, sipping coffee. Then we adjourned to the hotel room where C watched more cartoon before we retired for the night.
Look at this! It is amazing that the coin doesn't flip over and will continue its little journey down into the hole.
Okay, let's talk about the food we had there. On the first day, we went to the Kopitiam there and I had this:
It looks interesting enough and the price was alright (RM$11.90... not) When I paid for it, I realised that there was a service charge tagged to it so in the end it was $13.90. I was wondering what kind of service and no food court in Singapore tops the price that is displayed with service charge.
Daddy and his friends commented that we should have sat further away so that the waiter had to walk further (that was what the service charge was for) to bring me my food. And I had to cook my own food! Haha!
Then we also had buffet at The Resort which was alright. On the 2nd day, we had bak ku tei at a chinese eatery for RM$40 (totally not worth the money). Lunch on the last day was pretty good and it only cost us RM$30. If you are wondering why there is rice in all the pictures, it's because C is a rice-freak. She LOVES rice and every time we ask her what she wanted, she would smile and reply "rice".
And on our journey back, we had this luxurious coach which even had individual tv screens. There were multiple channels to choose from and we were literally spoiled for choices. C slept for a good 2 hours and then it was tv time all the way. She is such a couch potato, I tell you!
