Little Genting Trip

Boo~

I went to Genting last week, with EdeNz, as one of my holiday trips after graduation. Overall, it was nice, fun and exciting trip, we didn't really spend too much on this trip, you will know why... =)

Well, firstly, we decided to choose Genting as our holiday destination mainly due to a cheap package offered by Genting, the "888 Deals Holiday Package".

We took the 3D/2N Stay + Breakfast + International Show "Fly" package, which cost Rm97.76 in total for both of us. Worth it right? Really really worth, one night stay at First World Hotel Stand Room is RM58 you know. Now, with this package we get 2 night stays, breakfast and 2 ticket to watch a show, what's better than that? XD

Okay, having our accommodation settled, on Tuesday morning, 11/9, I woke up around 6am (So early!) and leave my house at 7am to take KTM to KL Central to meet with EdeNz and get a bus to Genting. EdeNz reached there first and I reached shortly after 8pm, KTM was so packed. >_<

So many fishes!

The fishes came to us because there's a boat nearby I think, you can also buy fish food and feed them but we didn't since the fishes is already gathering. =)

Dino boat, you can sit on this and go inside a dark room to see fake dinosaurs and listen to their stories.

We walked around the park, took some photos as well. =) Then, wanted to play the hanging bridge there but it was close for maintenance. =( Well, so we left and proceed to get some snacks. Hehe... we ate sweet corn and dorayki cake, since we are not that hungry at that time. After eating, we went boating. Not much people as well, but it's funny to see how people park their boat when they come back to the exit, some really funny, cannot control the boat, haha... Well, we took our boat and start moving around the lake, nice cool air, nice scenery...

The big Genting logo and the Lake View restaurant.

The same spot from a further place, this time can see First World Hotel, so colorful.

The boating was fun and nice, I love it, moving around slowly and seeing things around you... So fun! Well after that we walked around and I spoted this cute bear need the water fountain at the entrance...

The bear is actually a tree, cute and special isn't it?

And there's actually two of them! XD

There are a lot more this kind of shaped trees around Genting though, really creative. Hehe...

Then, there's this big Energizer guy, used to be a coco cola can.

This is old English style phone booth isn't it? There's also a cafe which has the old school red double decker bus for the customer to enjoy their meals inside a bus. Pretty cute and creative. =)

Before we went back to our hotel, we also played the Flying Coaster twice! (Wristband holder get to play 1 free ride) I love this ride the most, really really fun and exciting. It's already around evening at that time, both of us are pretty exhausted. We went back and take a short nap before dinner, afterall, both of us wake up so early this morning. =/

Well, we had our dinner at casino's cafe, hehe... Nisin noodles and a stick of sotong balls cost only RM4, where else can you find cheaper food around... Forgot to take picture of the food, but it was really filling, we get unlimited free drinks as well. We walked around the casino and see how people gamble, pretty amazing, I would say... For me, I would never place so much money for such thing as I don't really find it fun, it's boring for me, until I can actually fell asleep. =p

Around 9pm, we proceed to the Pavilion, the big theatre hall when the show "Fly" is held at. We went in 5 minutes earlier and there are lots of people... Quite unexpected for a time when there's not much people in Genting.

The show was really nice, the story is about 2 kinds of people fighting for the land after human beings are gone... It's a mix of dance, magic show and acrobatics, which makes the show interesting. Their costumes were nicely design so as the stage. The show runs for 90 minutes and we both enjoy it very much. I guess EdeNz never thought that the show is gonna be this nice as he keeps talking about it after the show. XD If you happen to be in Genting, try to catch this show while it's still on, I don't really know how much is the cost of 1 ticket as we got it for free...

After that, we still walked around the plaza, chatting and seeing things and people around before we went back to the hotel room and sleep. It was really a tiring day for both of us, we slept early and actually woke up pretty later the next morning, missed the breakfast!

Well, it was already noon that time, so we washed ourselves and went out again, today there's not much plans, but we are going to visit the Snow World and the arcade. =) We both ended up in casino for lunch again, haha... You see how we save all our money? =p Well, there's more people walking around today... We bought tickets for Snow World at 4.30pm, meanwhile we just walk around the area and had some snacks.

Snow World, freezing cold but it was fun! We get to play with the giant slide twice, when everyone else get to play once only. XD It was really fun but too bad they limit the number of rides. We took photos as well, 4 of them were really nice but it was too expensive, so we only bought 1. Then they have ice crafting of a giant boat or something like that and some tables and stools inside. I tried sitting on the ice stool but it was too cold! Haha... Then people were playing with ice around and we played with the mini slide at the snowhouse. I guess everyone couldn't stand the cold and ran out after 10 minutes... Well, we went out slightly after that as well, it was really cold and getting colder every minute you stay inside.

After the freezing experience, we went to the arcade played some shooting game, some silly games and stuff. I spotted a rat in the arcade, it was really scary! The rat ran around the arcade, don't know where it came from, but I were scared to move around in the arcade... We went back for dinner and yes, we went to the casino again. =) I guess we have been going in and out the casino for many many times but never spent a cent on gambling, that's really really weird, haha... Well, if you observe those uncles and aunties, they gamble like their money can be summoned from nowhere, kind of scary to me... I mean, those money are earn through hard efforts and within split seconds it's gone, how wasteful is that... It's not some small amount of money, you know... I guess they spent like thousand of ringgit in there? Well, it's lucky for me that I don't like gambling.

Around 10 something, we both went to Starbucks and relax a while, our legs were pretty tired, we walked basically whole day! Well, I ordered Javachips Fraps and a piece of chocolate cake, forgotten the name.

The drink and the cake, I ate the cake before I took the photo. >_<

Well, the cake was really really really nice! Must try! Both of us love the cake a lot, we even bought another one back to the hotel, hehe... Greedy me... I gonna be fatter, eating so many cakeys in 1 night. It's too irresistible. =/

Well, we watched the TV a while, there are some funny English series showing... Then both of us got tired and slept, since we need to wake up early the next day for the breakfast. Well, luckily we managed to wake in time the next morning, or else the free breakfast will be wasted.

We went down to the hotel cafe, there's really a lot of people there, mostly visitors from China... We browse around, since it's a buffet breakfast, so we can eat anything we like. The dishes are quite good, there are Nasi Lemak, Fried Mee, Porridge, Ham, Sausage, Red Beans, Fried Egg, Scrambled Egg, Toast bread, Bao, Milo, Coffee, Tea, Milk, Orange Juice... They even have croissants other than the normal bread, quite cute looking. I didn't take any photos, too busy enjoying the food, haha... It was really nice, it has been a long time since I had a buffet breakfast and it was the first time for EdeNz. =)

Hehe, we ate quite a lot there but sometimes it's annoying to see those greedy people around when you try to take some food. Well, the breads are not toasted, so they provide a machine for people to toast and then apply butter or peanut butter or jam on it... These greedy aunties and young girls couldn't wait for their turn and they went stuff their breads inside without considering aout other people's bread. Some even apply the jam or butter first then put it in, in the end the bread got stucked because the jam is sticky, dumb people...

Well, after having a heavy breakfast, we went back to our room and packed, then checked out and wait for our bus. We spent an hour waiting for our bus because of some errors in the bus seats numbers and stuff... I was tired that time so I slept for the whole journey of returning back to KL. We reached KL Central around 2 something I guess? Haha, then we took KTM home...

Pretty tired, especially my legs... But it was nice, although it's just a simple trip, but I really enjoyed myself and have lots of fun, putting away all the stress and worries.
