Go Back to Malaysia

Auntie Myrna and I have an extended trip. From Luang Prabang, we flew to Malaysia to join the Go Family in their tour of Malaysia.

Johor Bahru City

Legoland Hotel

Due to the very long queue for immigration clearance in KLIA, we missed the Malaysian Airlines flight to Johor Bahru at 2PM. We passed through the immigration at barely 2PM but we still have to take to train to get to the other airport. So we decided to rather take the bus and reached JB at sundown. We reunited with Rose, Ruth, Jun and the kids at Legoland Park.

Legoland is basically for kids, but we enjoyed the new section of the park, the Water Park. We stayed at the hotel from Nov 2 to 3 before heading back to Kuala Lumpur.

The fun of building Lego bricks starts at the Hotel Lobby

Even the Dining area, from plates to furnitures is made of Lego Building Blocks

Singapore City
Singapore is just a bridge away from JB. Auntie Myrna and myself skipped the second day in Legoland to cross the border to Singapore. It was my nth time in SG, so it's no longer exciting. It was second visit for Auntie Myrna who claimed that she was not able to go around on her first step. So I played the tourguide for her.

With only a day to spare, we have not reached as much destinations to cover. I showed her the areas around Marina, Vivo City Mall, and the Bugis Station.

Snack time at Vivo City Mall

Jun and Ruth hired a family van to drive to KL on Nov 3. We reached Mandarin Oriental Hotel in the afternoon and stayed there until Nov 5. To tour around the city, we patronized the Hop on Hop off Bus Tour. Since it was raining the whole time we were there, we only checked the National Museum, the Royal Palace, and the Petronas Twin Tower.

Since we stayed within the KLCC area, a pose with Petronas Twin Tower is at our disposal

We got a free day to be away from kids. So we four went to visit the Batu Cave taking the city trains

Even the visit to the Royal Palace, the kids won't enjoy. But still we pulled a nice family picture.
