On 14 Dec - 18 Dec, we traveled to Genting. The customs from Singapore to Malaysia were jammed. It took more than 6 hours to arrive. The children were more than excited, chugged down snacks on the way, sang APT songs and slept mostly throughout in the private car we took. 

When we arrived, Mom and Bro Max were already there for 1 day. We met them for lunch at Dafu Congee for their famous congee. We then went to the top-floor indoor arcade and walked outside in the cold air a little before heading to Starbucks. They were catching Pokemon as it was an event day. After awhile, we went to rest and went for dinner. 

The next day, the children went to the largest bouncy castle. Funtopia, Malaysia Book of Records’ Largest Inflatable Theme Park. More than 300ft obstacle challenge and highest inflatable slide with 9m height. 

For the price of only RM120 (2 kids + 2 aduls) it's for a full day fun. There's Train, Tyre Track, Highest Slide and many others.... The kids couldn't get enough and went in from day to night. My heart almost dropped when Bev climbed up the highest slide and came down on her own. I even felt it was already quite exciting for me, she did not show any tinge of fear at all. Brayden too..... Where do they get their energy hopping on over and over again. Hub and I were tired after just one round of walking the whole place; I was clumsily slipping and sliding on the surface as my socks were without grips. 

There was fake snow and Christmas performance outdoor. Bev and Bray sang to the Christmas songs together with the singers and dancers. 

They still loved the bouncy castle more than any other rides and asked to enter the place over and over again. Most worth it RM120 spent. 

The kids left Genting with Mom and Bro Max on 16 Dec, they went to Penang first. Hub and I decided that we wanted to spend a little We-time at Genting and KL. 

Our romantic first date was at a night bar on top of Genting. The band were performing and we were drinking and dancing. On the second night, we came back to another bar, where there was beer, frog mascot, DJ and a couple singing. It was a different vibe but nice nonetheless. 

We, of course, would not miss the Outdoor Theme Park. I tried to avoid it but Hub was insistent that we should do it without the kids. We were Big Kids; enjoying the rides and not worrying about which ones are age appropriate for the kids. There were slight rain and lots of cloud fog. It was nice and cool outdoors. I am really impressed with the rides; Some of my favourites: Independance Day (Special appearance of Douglas Lim, wonderful flying effect and futuristic view of KL), Invasion of Planets of the Ape, Robots Rivet Town (control front-back rotation of own vessel), Ice Age Expedition, Ice Age Live Performance, Rio Samba Gliders (nice view of Genting in the sky, felt like Aladdin & Jasmine flying carpet moment when flying through the clouds - brrr cold breeze), Boot Camp Training (easy).

We went to the casino and won on the Moo-Moo slot machine. The bags kept bursting at the right moments. 

Time to head down to KL. We took the Skyway Cable Car and bus down to TBS (Terminal Bersatu Selatan). There were lots of bus intervals, Gene came down to Kl too and he drove us to Ah Gor's home in Kuchai Lama.
