Fun Among The Clouds

Kena suan for not contributing to the blog already. I shan't put forth any excuses for myself. Writer's block? More like plain and simple laziness. Ok, since I've got lots of pics from the trip, I'd put up a photo post here. Saves me the trouble to compose lengthy prose, too.

Yes, I know. I'm still lazy.

Psst! There's a strange boy looking at us. Uh-oh. He's coming towards us!

Yeeks! He flashed me!

Hmmph! Why do we have to hold hands?

On the other hand, I'm not complaining if that other hand belongs to a good-looking boy.

Who wants to go to the theme park?

Better put on some facial protection cream before heading outdoors.

The carousel princesses.

This pic was taken in Jun 08. [Note to readers: Yes...Jae was then sporting the look from VU Salon]

One year later. Same place. Same pose.

Look Ma. I can juuuuuump!

Like I've always told you: Kiang tio ho. Mai geh-kiang!

This spinning thingy is making me giddy!

Time for a thirst quencher!

RM30 at the arcade got me 191 tickets. 191 tickets got me just these measely whistle and pen?

It's the flasher boy again. Hurry, cover your eyes!

My Mama says, an apple a day keeps the doctor away. I like doctors. They give me sweets.

Genting had been fun. Melacca isn't too bad either!

Mei-mei, you can play with the big girls when you become one yourself. Now get back onto your stroller.

We can share this pogo stick, ok?

All this monkeying around is making us sleepy...

...Reeeeaaaallly sleeeeepy.

Well, it had certainly been a fun trip.

I'm sure we'd be back again soon. Until then, byebye!

Our Trip To Genting and Malacca 15-18th June 09

This is the driver of the 1.5mth old Suzuki SX4 who claimed to be suffering from writer's block indefinitely.
This is the family which went to Genting and Malacca in the SX4.
These are the daddies/ chauffeurs. From left, Nic (code: 995), YS (code: 407), Clement (code: 445) who convoyed and used walkie talkies to tell jokes to keep themselves awake during the long drive.

These are the mommies. From left: mommy of Ayden, mommy of Sera and Shermaine, and mommy of Jaimie.

These are the toddlers who enjoyed themselves tremendously.

This is the baby who is waiting to join in the fun with gor gor and jie-jies.

This is the group.

This is the famous beef noodles in Tengkak where we had lunch on our way to Genting. The beef noodles was YUMMILIOUS.

That was us having our breakfast in the hotel before we set off for the theme park. Our hotel package did not include breakfasts but the blur staff gave us breakfast coupons. Thank you very much!

That's the children anxiously taking their heights to ensure that they were eligible for most rides in the theme park. Well, even the shortest among them was more than 90cm so we had to purchase tickets for them now.

That's us having fun in the rides. This time, we ventured the indoor theme park before we proceeded to the outdoor one.









This is Jaimie enjoying rounds and rounds of rides in the kiddy ride land.


That's Jaimie putting her finger in an inappropriate place.

That's us replenishing our energy.

That's us enjoying ourselves in the arcade before we left Genting on the 3rd day.

That is a must-have shot of us with the Genting logo.

Nic and family didn't join us for Malacca.
By the time we reached the hotel in Malacca, we were all famished and it was evening time. We walked over to Makota to have a buffet dinner and stuffed our face full with tappanyakki. The 2 girls started to go wild after dinner.

It has an hour's break for the mommies. Shelley and I wasted no time in shopping around. YS brought Shermaine back to the hotel to rest while Clement babysitted 2 princesses for an hour. The best place to keep them happy and occupied would definitely be the arcade!

That's the 2 princesses. Sera asked how come she was not the queen while Jaimie was happy to be a princess.
That's us taking a picture outside the hotel. It rained in the morning but thankfully it stopped by the time we went down for our breakfast. Jaimie was still in her "princess mode".

That's the night view from our room. We didn't see any of Malacca except the 2 shopping malls nearest to our hotel. What a shame. So this picture is very... representative!
That's us taking some pictures in our room. YS booked the more luxurious room at a promotional rate. The rooms were indeed very spacious and cosy (except there were lizards running around in the balcony. Of course we kept the glass doors tightly shut).


That's the girls enjoying MORE rides while the mommies went for MORE shopping. Thank god for the marvellous invention of kiddy rides!



That's the not-nice chendol we had in the shopping mall. We must eat chendol in Malacca so anyhow ordered from one of the shops. It was a mistake. We should have insisted on the famous durian chendol in that I-cannot-remember-what's-the-name-of-that-famous-shop.


After some final shopping, we had lunch at a Hong Kong cafe before we "chiong" all the way back to Singapore.
The children had so much fun together and the daddies had fun driving (something which the mommies could not understand). It was a GREAT trip! We sure hope to travel with the Chuah and the Lee family again!!! Till the next trip, byebye!
