Siongz.
I shall leave the review of the Genting trip to Angie. Me, I'd just stick to posting photos. Don't say don't have...I'd group the picture entries into the various categories, ok.
First up - the fun and thrills of Genting Highland, offered through not one, but two theme parks (that we got to enjoy for the price of one (!) 'cos of this promotion they've got now).
The indoor carousel ride (RM5 per ride) that Jae got on, on the first evening at Genting.
After getting the unlimited theme park pass (RM37 for both theme parks), we immediately hoped onto the Double Deck Carousel at the outdoor theme park.
The spaceship ride was next. This one went up and down while going round and round.
The Flying Jumbo was just nearby. This ride was exactly like the previous one except you get to sit on a cute flying baby elephant.
This was the outdoor mini train that went round the perimeter of the outdoor theme park. There is another mini train ride in the indoor theme park too.
There was an antique car ride that I didn't get any pics of. After that ride, it was indoors all the way 'cos weather decided to get quite wet. Here's Jae on yet another carousel, though they didn't call this one in the indoor theme park carousel. They called it the Merry-Go-Round instead. LPPL.
Angie queued for the Ferris Wheel while I accompanied Jae on the Merry-Go-Round before joining her in the queue afterwards. Here's me and Jae in the Ferris Wheel cabin.
Another ride where we got to view the hustel and bustle of the indoor theme park from high above - the Rio Float. Another similar ride was the Reindeer ride (no pics, only video). Also got to endure looong queuing time for both of these.
Ah, here's the other mini train ride. This one's really mini. It just went round and round a very small area for like 4 or 5 rounds. Not tiresome queuing required for this, though.
We got an indian girl sitting across us to snap this one for us on board the Venice Gondola ride. The photographer said Jaimie was cute~!
Because of the relatively shorter queue, Jae got on the indoor Merry-Go-Round more than any of the other rides. No less than 3 times, each time trying out different horses. There were those that rocked back and forth, those that hovered up and down, and those 'milo-cup' types.
Of course, there were also the regular (boring) kiddie rides lah.

it's something i read occasionally. just like reading "Baby blues", makes me feel like having kids immediately. heh.
Welcome Back!
It sounds like a good trip.
Yes please. Do share if Jae took the journey up well and tips to cushion the long ride up for a toddler so that we may consider if we should take the challenge of visiting Genting with the boys in tow. ('><)
We travelled by WTS tour coaches since it was the first overseas trip for Jae and we didn't know what to expect of her reactions.
The little one did surprisingly well throughout the 6-hour journeys, especially for the trip to Genting on Day 1. Minimal hassles lah. Can consider self-driving, perhaps to somewhere near, like Malacca, for our next trip up north.
Hi Noe. Its another one of those times where we posted stuff within minutes of each other!
Well, we prepped lotsa stuff to keep Jae occupied during the 6h journeys eg portable DVD players with her fav videos, a bagful of her fav toys. Didn't hv to resort of much of these, as she seemed to be generally quite engaged during the trip, at times playing peekaboo with wolfgirl and RR who were seated immediately behind us.
For you, i suppose the challenge wd be 3-fold leh. No mean feat!
Welcome home. Great that you guys really enjoy youself..Nice pictures..Noticed Jae did not wear as thick jackets compared with you guys..She must be very actively moving around..
Hi ernest!
Thanks for the recommendation. heard from clement you read baby blogs to keep yourself happy. :) that's nice....
You are going to be an uncle again soon. YiPing and Shu Hann's son is due next month! We are all so excited about the arrival of the baby boy.
Did I hear a drive up north? Must jio us hor :-)
Wow! Fantabulous trip! Love the pics! Especially of the Petronas Twin Towers in the distance. Looks like a fairy castle rising up above the clouds...wonderful shot.
If we survive the 7hr+ plane trip to Aus and back we would like to try a drive up north too!!! Can we join!? Can we, can we???
Sure, Idy and Meekfreek!
Meekfreek, you must blog about your trip to Aus too!! Actually, I cannot quite imagine Jae taking an aeroplane without much fuss... unless we take business class or above. hohoho~~~ she simply cannot be confined to a chair for more than 10mins!
Lovely pics from Genting... Haven't been there for ages and think my kids will be excited if we go.
