Genting Highlands 26-29 May 2013 (Day 3)

As I didn't have the chance to eat the cupcake, it became my breakfast the next day. Despite placing it in the fridge overnight, it still tasted very nice and chocolatey. He also made me a cup of hot tea to go with the cupcake.

 Next, we went to Old Town for his breakfast
Sipped on my favourite Si Mun (丝袜)Milk Tea while watching him eat. After breakfast, we sat there chatting for awhile and went to the Outdoor Theme Park which is just opposite. 

Took our first ride: Merry-Go-Round

It's funny how I rode on a huge lion and he had to ride on a small pony. A big guy riding on a small pony.



We took the Jumbo ride and the super slow train after that. Wanted to come back in the evening time again to take more rides cos of the long queues everywhere in the afternoon. However, it was raining and our plan to go back again had to be abolished.

We also went to play bowling

We went back to hotel to rest and had my "lunch".


I like this mee goreng. It's very nice. Should stock up more of it at home. After awhile, he fell asleep and that was when my fun time came. He mumbled in his sleep that day. I was trying very hard to listen to what he was saying and I caught a sentence,"my dear wants to eat cake, I want to go and buy cake." I couldn't stop smiling to myself after I heard it. It's too funny, and cute at the same time. That was also the time when I realised that he can talk and communicate with me when he's half asleep but doesn't rmb after that, just like a drunken. 

Dinner for that day was pizza hut and we walked around the place again, exploring the outdoor area cos it was the cold that night. 

 I took his jacket while he wore my cardigan.

Genting Highlands 26-29 May 2013 (Day 2)

Day 2 at Genting Highlands:

After waking up and getting dressed up, we decided that the plan for the day was to explore Genting Highlands and go for some shopping. As we walked out of the room and when the door shut behind us, I realised that neither of us brought the door key. By then, the door was already locked. Luckily there was some room service personnel around and we borrowed her master door key to open the door to retrieve our keys before heading off again.

Took this photo to remind ourselves to always bring the card out.    

We went out in search for a place to have our breakfast. We both agreed that we should settle for cheaper alternative for breakfast and go to a restaurant for dinner, hence we chose to eat in First World foodcourt.

I wanted to eat the bak kut teh as I tried it the previous time I went there and it tasted quite good. However, I only know that it cost about 20+RM on the last day of our trip. The plan to eat something cheap failed totally -.-

After breakfast, we walked around to explore the entire place. We walked through the entire First World Plaza, the arcade area and skyway area. We played the pacman air hockey in the arcade and it was quite fun. I lost to him by a slight bit even though I was leading at first.

Initially, we wanted to make a trip down to the strawberry farm. We stopped by a Starbucks cafe to use their wifi to check the directions to the Strawberry farm. However, I saw some reviews saying that if you have went to Cameron Highlands before, there is nothing much in Genting Strawberry Farm as compared. Sooooooooo, we made our way back to the hotel as I was feeling so tired that I slipped into a "Stoning Mode" every now and then.  


On our way back to the hotel, we passed by Baskin Robbins and he bought me this:

Chocolate and Strawberry Yoghurt Ice Cream!! The ice cream really made me more awake. I LOVE ICE CREAM!

I napped for super long in the hotel (About 2 to 3 hours?). By the time I woke up, it was already evening time. He gave me a small surprise the moment I woke up. He went out alone to buy me a nice cupcake when I was sleeping. When we were exploring the place, we walked by a bakery shop with delicious looking cupcake. I just made a mere comment saying that the cupcakes looked nice and he immediately said he wanted to buy for me. I didn't let him do it and pulled him away. Although I like sweet stuff like cupcakes, I still think that they are expensive and fattening, so might as well save the $ and not gain the calories. Little did I know that he would really buy it for me. A small part of me was feeling pissed cos I had already told him not to buy but a big part of me was still touched by his action.

As it was already dinner time, we stored up the cupcake in the fridge first and went to Kenny Rogers for dinner.

 
After dinner, we continued to walk awhile and it was time to enter the theatre to catch Fast and Furious 6. Even though I didn't watch the previous sequels, I still think that Fast 6 is awesome! However, he fell asleep some time through the movie cos he was tired and he didn't sleep when I was asleep. After the movie ended, we went back to the hotel, watched some movie on my phone and sleep. That marks the end of our Day 2 in Genting Highlands.

Genting Highlands 26-29 May 2013 (Day 1)

The day I had very much looked forward to finally arrived! Ever since the plan for the Genting Highlands trip had been nailed down, we had been talking a lot about it and looking forward to it.

On the first day of our trip, we met up to have Mcdonald's breakfast at Toa Payoh before heading off to Golden Mile to take our coach bus scheduled to leave by 7.30am.

As Ivan enjoys taking photos, we had been taking photos THROUGHOUT (literally) our trip from the start to the end. 
These photos were taken in a cab, halfway through the journey when the bus stopped for a 20mins rest and while waiting at the lobby to check in to the hotel.

We took five-star tour bus up to Genting Highlands and the ride was horrendous. The bus was very bumpy and it made me felt uncomfortable. I don't recall that I had taken any bus rides bumpier than that to Genting Highlands before.

When we reached Genting Highlands, the temperature over there was just cool. We headed towards First World hotel to do our check-in. Although I had been to Genting Highlands for many times, that was the first time I'm doing check-in personally and we were feeling abit lost as the instructions weren't clear as to where to get the queue number for check-in. Finally, we figured out and got our queue numbers, but to realise that there was 50 queue numbers ahead till our turn. To make the wait less mundane, I went to buy starbucks and Ivan decorated those photos using my phone.

After the check-in was done, it was about 3 plus 4pm. We didn't do much for the day as we were both tired from waking up too early. As such, we also retired early for the first day.
