Fly To The Sky

Posted by cibol on 6:56 AM in ,


While baby was here we decided to went uphill Genting. Actually we've been planning to go up for quite a while but only this time around we managed to really got the time to at least step our feet in Genting. Not that this is our first time there but for me myself, the last time I was there was back in 2005. That was like 4 years ago.



The journey up was rather challenging for us because in the first place it seems like everything is against plan. First, from my place to LRT station, we waited for 30 bloody minutes for a cab and I tell you, during that period not even a single cab went in our way until we finally decided to take the bus instead. And the moment we stepped into the bus, a cab passed by!

Second, upon reaching KL Sentral we quickly went downstairs to get our bus tickets and guess what? System down and the only bus available is at 1 pm and of course, since we're on a day trip - that is a waste of time and so we decided to take LRT to Putra Station and then go up Genting via bus.

When we finally reached Putra Station, the only bus available is at 12 pm. Still, not worth it. There were a few cabbies around offering us ride to go the top and they were asking for RM20 per person and they were saying that they already had 2 passengers on board and it would be easier to share the fare. There was this one Pakcik who actually offered us RM15 per person to go up and without hesitation, we took the cab - and I must say he is very geng driving up the slope and bents of Genting. Caya lah!



Actually we just wanted to go to Genting's Snow World. Even though I've been up here a few times but never had I stepped my feet on this ground. Tickets were sold at RM15 per person and we have to wait for turn to go in because they're having it by session.



I didn't want to take the jacket and boots provided by the management because they were - seriously, they stinks and the boots are in bad condition most of them. So I decided to just wear my cardi, a scarf and my own shoes. It was freezing cold up there. It's like being trapped in a big chiller!



Believe me, my arse was like numb for a while!



Pose pose lah a bit!



Then we heard : "Sorry ya, kamera tak boleh pakai kat sini"

Ooops, caught in the act. Yes, you were not supposed to take photos with your own camera here and with that last shot, actually our camera battery went kong!



We stayed in this house for a while because outside was just so freaking cold!



Pose again lah .. :p

After all that we decided to go and have our lunch at one of the restaurant nearby snow world. I can't really remember what was the name but it was amongst the cheapest there actually.



The hero



The heroin

The food was not bad actually and it was below RM10. If you noticed, all of the food sold in Genting are priced above RM10 usually.



I was having this nicely made chicken with sambal! yum yum!



Baby looks confused : "What is this?"

and we had this for dessert



It's mango pudding.

We made our move down to the bus station around 6 pm, we don't want to miss the bus. The journey was quite okay even though we have to rush for things but we did managed to sleep in the hotel before continuing our tour throughout the place - Ripley's Museum is a must!

So very nice! Haven't been there since the 90s. My next trip to KL, must go! Ummm...so cold, why no photo berpeluk2? Tak best lah, tak romantic like that! LOL!!


Eeeeeee..why u put my ugly picture here? :/ u only put your hensem pictures jak, ppl one u letak jak..evil -__-


Oh you dint tell the whole story. Actually I was so frustrated when we reach KL sentral and I decided v just cancelled the trip. Then, after had breakfast and had a chance to calm down, we decided it was worth to go for it.
I didnt regret took the taxi, eventhough we had to pay double the fare compare to bus route.
The lucky thing we actually booked a room at First World, so that we can take a nap prolly about 2hours. Im impressed First World came out such a smart way to check out using that express machine.
Luckily we manage took and early ride going back as it was suppose to be 8.30pm. The journey, fuooh I tell you, exciting. Too bad for cibol though as he had to endure that unique smell and fun ride :p
We didnt went for the outdoors games or casino. My advice it would be nice if u booked a room for 3 days..
Ahhh..Ripley Museum, my favorite!!
Next trip we go Cameron Highlands k dd? :P can can?


Genting already cold, still want to masuk Snow World? Last time I went into Mines Wonderland's Snow house, my hands went numb and my nose became watery. I think that's enough experience for me! I think I don't like staying in countries during winter time!


How come they don't allow you to take photos in there? Or do you need to pay for photos taken for you, is it?


This reminds me that I myself have not been to Genting for some time too. BTW your pics are quite crisp and clear too. Nice :)


suituapui : That's for our eyes only. :p I've not been up there quite a while also. I remember the last time I was there I had to sleep in the cinema, I can't afford the rooms! It was during CNY 2005 by the way! Ha ha ha

baby : Yeah, we almost gave up on the idea. It was tiring, but it was a memorable one for me. Cameron next!

foongpc : Ha ha ha! Wey, never been there lah so give it a try. Yeah, they don't allow because they will take pics for you but of course have to pay lah.

JL : Ha ha ha .. maybe it's time to re-visit?


I went up on saturday! Did you see my Fidani chocolate shop up there?!!


The snow is too thin inside larrr. My kids tried to make snow angel, didn't turn out nice!


Wah I also wanna go snow world >.<


Finally get to see your baby. Bring her out the next time we meet? Sarawakians are so lovely and friendly. haha!


You're talking about me, Daniel?...And Christock, when I go KL again, you drive me up there, can or not? You would have your new car already by then - no problem with the suspension. And I can buy Eiling's Fidani chocs for you...

Btw, Cibol...wow! Your baby's so sweet. You two would make a lovely couple! When? When? Must give me time to practise my song for the wedding reception. Ummmm...."To all the girls I've loved before"? Bwahahahahahaha!!!!


-eiling - : Owh, they got Fidani inside? I didn't know that!!! Should have told me earlier .. ha ha ha.

Pete : Yeah, it looks like salt though. Is it salt? Try to make snow ball also tak jadi.

Christock : Go lah, neh bring stp along. He also want to go. Then later I tumpang sekaki!

daniel : Of course, if she's around. :)

suituapui : Ha ha ha .. you practise either "dream On" or "bohemian rhapsody" first .. ha ha ha


Dream on! Easy lah! Just squeeze my balls and I'll squeal like that...Adam Lambert! Hahahahaha!


Been long time since the last time I went to Genting lah ...

HHmm, should go there again soon ... must have a lot more fun compare to years ago ..


Nice to be in Genting. So nice to walk around it in such a nice and cold weather. It's been years I am there. Missed the place. I like to walk outside those buildings and catch the cool winds. Look at the flora and fauna.


Dav DiDi : Still the same to me. ha ha ha, less cold that is. Getting warmer now

Superman : Oh yeah, I remember during my first year in uni - we drove up to genting and just stay there until about 2-3 am then went back down ... nice.
