Malaysia Adventure 2012: Part 2

Malaysia Adventure2012: Day-4-5

July2:
ETD Penang Airport 07:00; ETA KL LCC 08:00

We dropped our bags to a budget hotel: Iris Garden along Bukit Bintang then we went straight to KL Bus Station for Genting. Unfortunely, the cable car is under maintenance from today to August! Ugh! This is the start of a series of unfortunate events!

 

OUTDOOR THEME PARK. There are roller coasters, ferris wheel, boat rides, dinosaur land, go karts, etc... but we only got to ride one... the pirate train! ha! this is made only for kids! not entertaining for adults at all! such a bad day... coz when we're waiting for our turn at Cork's Crew, we suddenly felt raindrops... yes.. it rained... hard!

INDOOR THEME PARK. We can't refund nor exchange our outdoor theme park fee. Sad. All we could do is stroll inside.

Before going back to KL, we visit Beryl's Chocolate wonderland for Chocolates! Also tried the fried durian (uhm, don't like it)

i-City. Super far from KL. Had no time to explore. We just toured around the lot and had a photo op with the available light creations. Our main problem is the train station will close by 11 pm. We got there by 10pm. =(



KUALA LUMPUR. Had a brief time touring around the city. Petronas Tower is truly amazing! But its lights were turned off at exactly 12mn, just 2 minutes after we got there. Sigh... very unfortunate day indeed!

July3: It is another day and we're off to our last tourist destination:


BATU CAVES. 45-minute train ride. Located at Gombak District. Monkeys and Crows (not pictured) by the way, can be seen anywhere in Malaysia =D Here, I had the chance to come up close with monkeys and doves. The monkeys are mingling freely with people, but they're not friendly at all. They steal drinks and food at your hand or bags, so be careful if you're going to visit the sacred caves.

We only got to see the main Cave, but we don't also have much time to explore it. The Dark Cave has an entrance fee and didn't dare to tour inside it anymore.

Had so much fun on this long vacation. Thanks to my travel buddies - Gianne, Joy, Risa, Johnna and Marc. So, where's next? =)
