Genting Day 1 - 190711

Genting Day 1

I got my chance to send Nuryna to school before our trip. Which made me quite happy because I won't be seeing her for the next 5 nights.
Fad fetch me after much "discussion" if it's cheaper to share a cab (I'm not "on the way" to the airport frm his place) or to have two cabs and just meet at the airport. I'm guessing I'm right about sharing but he'll never admit.
We checked in as Fad smartly wheeled his 10kg+ bag away from the weighing machine.
We then quickly had breakfast, he swallowed his McMuffin and I had a Happy Meal. :)

Quick smoke before flight!

Got our duty-free cigarettes. YEA! We wondered how we going to finish them all but hell, it was cheap.

fad, "from east coast we see the boats all lined up properly but in fact they are very messy.."


Flew a short flight to LCCT and catch the next bus out to KL Sentral.

Fad fell asleep while I tried to but couldn't. I got shocked by this creepy kid who was staring at us half of the time.
We reached KL Sentral and had quick lunch at Subway.

I got ourselves Famous Amos to munch in the bus while Fad got us a prepaid card. It took the sales person an AWFUL LONG time to activate the card. I was starting to get panicky that we might miss our bus.

We did catch the bus in time though. Fad got himself occupied to activate broadband on mobile w the prepaid card. I believe it was Maxis. He spent RM15 for 1 week worth of broadband mobile. We thought we won't be calling much and we can whatsapp/ twit/ facebook family members. (ah, internet)



Upon reaching the Skyway, we took our own sweet time up but still was greeted with a LOOONGGG queue for the ride up to Genting!


We slumped away in the queue and was thoroughly entertained by Hong Kong tourists who was very, VERY fascinated by an Iranian baby girl who was just in front of us.
Fad and I agreed that there was nothing too special about her except fair skin, curly hair and big (black) eyes. (we'd give extra points if she had blue eyes. )



Coo-ing adorable baby was normal but they went to the EXTREME!
They stared, pointed, took out their cameras, phones to take photos of the girl and even tried their luck to carry the child!


Lucky for them, the parents of this girl didn't find it too annoying or did the child got cranky with the queue or the sudden attention that was given to her.

I wouldn't be a happy parent if it happen to my child. I mean, wtf, my child is not public display. Yes, flattered that they find her adorable but please, GTFO.
And I'll make a racket if i was the baby. Firstly, when was the queue going to end, secondly, why the fuck are they making annoying noises? (In my mind I was already making a racket for the exact same reasons)

We finally got into the cable-car and it was a long ride up with zombies.
We were glad to get our bags off our backs and started taking photos of the "scenery". Fad started to wave to the cabins that was on the opposite way and we tried to see how many waved back. Only one person awkwardly waved back.


We rushed up to First World because we have to get our hotel voucher before they closed at 5pm. Remember Fad got us the rooms at S$3/night and we need to redeem the vouchers to get our room!

It has been quite a long travel and I WANT TO REST!
We got back and forth between counters but finally got to the "travel agent & group" check-in
room. We were quite thankful we didn't have a line in front of us.




I asked for a room in the new tower and Fad tried to ask for a room on a higher floor. We got ourselves Double bed instead of Twin (YEA! because I don't want to sleep alone!!) and a room on the 8th floor of Tower 2!


We scurried off in search of our room and firstly thought it was far from the attractions. I got bit guilty because I asked for the new tower. HURHUR.

Of course, I kept my mouth shut, Fad wasn't within earshot when I asked for the new tower. If he finds out it was this smarty-pants who asked for the new tower and we were far from all the attractions, I was going to get an earful.

We got into our room and pleased to find out that it was spacious and clean.
We didn't have much of a view but we had a fridge and a safebox. Who needs greenery when we can chill drinks?? The shower had curtains and there was a fan! (Not in the shower la, in the room) Later we found out we didn't need much fan as it was pretty cold in the mornings.

Duty paid cigarettes. ISAP LA KORANG.

We freshen up, wore our ridiculously-thick-for-singapore-weather-but-awesomely-cool-jackets and went out to explore the place.

We soon found out that our room was indeed in a very convenient place. We were in Level 8 of the hotel but Level 3 of the Theme park. Fad got us the tickets for the indoor theme park and we wandered around for rides.

The child in us came out and we went around riding kiddy/family rides. I have to admit I had fun. HAHAHA. We made fun of most of the rides.

favourite. :)

we had fun rocking the boat... HAHAHAHAH



tourist-y enough? HAHAH



We tried to ride every possible ride before Glitz starts. But we went back up to our room before Glitz starts so I changed to a dress. MUAHAHA. Girly much??

We were early for the show (WOW) and unfortunately we left our camera upstairs. BUT THANX TO GALAXY SII we camwhored while waiting for the show.




The show was ok. I liked the sand magic part. It was interesting how she created images by using just sand.

We got out feeling hungry and bored. We heard a live band so babes decide that we should chill because we had a LONG day and this was suppose to be a holiday. ♥


sad because they didnt play the songs fad requested.
We got back to our room and before you could spell Genting, we were fast asleep.....




Day 2 up next. HUAHUA..
