Day 3 – The Last Day at Genting. And what better way to end the trip then to try out something many people might have seen on T.V. Yup, its SkyVenture – basically you can experience what is it like Sky Diving but instead you get to do it indoors 
My Cousin & my Aunt where the first to try then later on my other Aunt & I tried it. Its a good thing I don’t have any pictures of me taken after the ‘Sky Diving’ lol. But I do have the video, however I don’t think its such a good idea to show….too bad! haha
Time for a quick meal before heading on our bus to head back to Singapore. The dish this time round is mixed rice.
Waiting for his food…..
This time round we got a different bus but a newer compared to the one we came on.
A last look of Genting’s foggyness before we leave and start our approx. 7 hours journey back across to Singapore.
lol at the sign.
Grandmother relaxing on the bus
Last but not the least, during one of the rest stops along the way back my cousin bought this extraordinary pao that is around the size of his palm or maybe even a little bit bigger. The price of it? About SGD 2.00. haha

Day 2 and by 4PM we were done with the outdoor theme park and therefore proceeded in trying out the rest of the indoor rides since out ticket we bought earlier in the day were for both indoor & outdoor.
We sat on this ride which basically just went around the mall. The ride just took around 6 minutes and then found ourselves back to the start haha.
Then came Dinner time and decided to try out this steam boat restaurant we saw from one of the earlier rides we took – the catepillar ride. The price was RM 19.90 per person.
When we finished our dinner my younger cousin was quite tired already (from all the walking today) and wanted to head back to the room. But wait! there was one more ride we needed to try out before we called it a day.
Yes, the Venice Boat Ride lol.
With a little help from the fake guy rowing the boat and some ‘Italian’ like music that was playing in the boat, it sort of felt like the real one in Las Vegas lol.
When the ride was all done, it was finally time to head back to our hotel and call it a day :)
Some early Christmas Decorations
This one was my favorite lol
–> End of Part 4, One more to go!

Day 2 of Genting and Today we woke up early at 7:30AM and then had our breakfast. The weather was foggy but it got much foggier as the day went by.
No it wasn’t about to rain or anything it was just foggy haha.
So we started from the nearest attraction from the entrance and worked our way to the further ones. Tabby the …. Cat? (like in Farmville lol) & Allie the Elephant (or should it have been Ellie) 0O.
So that meant the Merry-Go-Round was the first attraction.
In the Chocolate Wonderland.
Some facts that you could store at the back of your head for some unknown reason…
Quickly running out Chocolate Wonderland lol
So what sort of shots can we come up with?? Hmmm….
After three shots this one is the best lol. Credits to my part-time model lol 
One of the rides that I obviously didn’t take 
lol
That colourful pair of buildings was where we stayed – First World Hotel.
We didnt get to try the Golf Karts as the queue was really….really….long…
View from the mini-Ferris Wheel.
The Corkscrew Ride that also had a rather long queue.
Poor people can’t even get a chance to scream when coming down coz by the time they try, they go up again..lol
Entering my cousin’s favourite must-go places.
One of the rides that wasn’t open yet in the morning but was later opened in the afternoon. Long queue too lol.
A view from one of the top spots on DinosuarLand lol. Clouds Clouds Clouds.
Dinosuars while riding the boat.
More foggy-ness….
‘Green Ting Ting’ that my cousin won from a carnival shooting game.
Lunch-time and I ate the Chicken Bolognese Spaghetti.
Mmmmmmm… lol
His name was either ‘Dino the Clown’ or ‘Duno the Clown’. He should write his name clearer
The Lollipop Girl & ….Machine Gun (though some might differ) Boy lol
The Antique Car Ride with Lance ramming the back of our car (that so happens the gasoline tank is positioned) - yea, no danger there for me as I am the one seating behind ;p
The 20 minutes Caterpillar ride which goes through the First World Plaza.

High tea – Done

Now time to check out the First World Plaza where many shops and indoor attractions are available.
At first I thought that the rower was a real guy haha. 
They seem to also have a lot of machines here and who are the ones playing them? Well, mostly Singaporeans of course lol
My Cousin having a picture with the machine and his card album haha.
The Caterpillar train that goes through the mall that actually starts from the outdoor theme park.
Christmas Decorations.
Then it was time to eat -> to the KopitAM!

And that was it was the first night in Genting.

The day started with an early wake up @ 5:50AM for me.
@5:50AM – A shower & wash up
@6:30AM – And then it was off to pick-up my Grandma, Aunt, and Cousin.
@6:50AM – Then it was off to Transtar’s bus depo somewhere near Lavender MRT Station.
@7:00AM – Reached Transtar at Lavender.
@7:45AM – Time to Board the Bus and head off to Genting!
@Somewhere along the way after Malaysia’s checkpoint (I think…) we were served Lunch
Transtar’s Airline-like lunch: Fried Fish w/. Nonya Sauce.
Ah Mah munching lol
How relaxing were our seats?
We were rather lucky as the 4 of us got the bottom deck (which was like our private lounge lol) of the bus while my other aunt and cousin got the upstairs as the bottom only had 5 seats.
Vernon: *While my mum pokes her rice with a fork I shall play my game*
Finally Reached!!!
We finally reached Genting after about 7 hours of road trip and as you would have noticed, it was foggy lol. Well I guess it’s because Genting is high on top of the mountains haha.
The Bus
First World Hotel
First World Hotel is the place we stayed. Too bad you have to be 21 years old to enter ‘STARWORLD’ lol.
We had to wait about an hour until we could get checked-in as there were lots of people also checking in, so we decided to have a quick munch nearby ->
Eggs lol
Okay, so they are just eggs but you got to admit the eggs are bigger than those available in Singapore right? lol
The Rooms
Well then the excitement continued after our ‘high-tea’ lol. We at last got our rooms – tada!
The Bathroom
Our Plasma T.V
Okay, so it’s not a Plasma 42” T.V or anything less but it really got me laughing lol Something rather rare you find these days haha
