Finally lunch. We went to 555 restuarant which is actually situated inside the famous Golden Prawn 933. This is the last time I will eat there. Will not elaborate here.



Fifth stop, Flying Fox !!!
Very excited to try !! Some of them stayed in bus but that's minorities! Majorities came down to try even relatives who are already more than 50,60 years old ! See how on they are !
Never ask Lrevin if he wants to try as I'm quite sure that he will be scared. Who knows he told me that he wants to play !! I opened my eyes big, looked at him and asked him again. I told him that if we go up, cannot say don't want to play hor. He said ok. My boy is so brave !! Put on safetly gear and up we went !





A rough picture of how high it is. Not very high, but still my legs are trembling with excitment!




Our turn !!
All the relatives and people from the group are looking at us with looks of awesome-ness! Hhahaa! The mum who expose her son to risk and the son who climb up the stairs by himself and didn't back out when it's our turn !!


Ready !!

Goooooo !!!!

That's so fun !!! Lervin is basically laughing from the time we slide down till we touched the ground! He even told me he wants to play again !!

Sixth stop, Miniature house.





Cheeky boy.





Seventh stop, visiting the shop selling kueh lapis.
I didn't get down the bus while the rest did.
A while later, hus came back and said the kueh lapis very exp !
Price ranging from $12 - $50 !




Lastly, back to hotel after a tiring yet fun day !
The hotel is within walking distance from the Ferry Terminal.
Just opposite the hotel is the Mega Mall Shopping complex where it housed inexpensive local restaurants, a hypermarket and a spa parlour.

Distance from hotel to Megamall.

Us waiting for our room key. It just get messy and noisy when the group is big. =p



Generally, our bedroom was very spacious and comfortable. It had a bright orangey, cheerful decor. The TV and the air-conditioning worked very well. However, we do noticed some stubborn stains at the side of the shower area. The toilet door had started to show its age as well even though it seemed quite new for the rest of the property.



Looks very cosy !



Connecting door to another room!

Bathroom.





Had our late dinner at Megamall. Cheap and good !

After dinner, we went to the basement to get some snacks and household stuffs. The boys start to get mischevious...





Was too tired and we head back to the hotel to rest and chill...
While I'm bathing....



Had so much fun esp flying fox !!!
