KL Trip 2010





Had a great trip to KL over the weekend. Eat and shop till you drop.. Actually I haven't done this much walking for a loooooong time.. keke... We had to get to the airport by 6am so I practically didn't sleep for most of the night.. Mikka called me grouchy.. LOL I had to admit cos I was really tired and I didn't dare to sleep for fear of not being able to wake up.. Poor me... Love the bed too much.. All was fine, caught a cab, picked up Adrian and Jo and we were headed for the airport. The best thing about Jetstar Asia is the flight takes off from Terminal 1 instead of the sucky budget terminal in which my opinion is - even Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal looks nicer... *giggle* After we checked-in, we headed over to Delifrance to catch a cup of morning coffee and some food. There was this local guy in the queue behind us. He gave his order to the aunty behind the counter -"An egg croissant please".. guess what was the reply? "HAH? 8 Kosong??" We nearly flipped and that guy was so embarrassed. When on earth did Delifrance started selling pratas or did she think he wanted 8 plain croissants? *ROFL* Singapore Changi Airport should really take note of hiring people who can speak better English. To speak, it is supposed to be an International Airport and what? Best in the world? (Or has it been overtaken?) Anyway, that was just a prelude to a happy and fun trip. We slept all the way and the flight was so short it felt just like taking a bus from Yishun to Bedok.. keke.. When we touched down at KLIA, we were a little lost as we had to take a Skytrain to the main immigration block. Squeeze, squeeze, squeeze... early morning crowd?? Feels like work huh? =P After a round of looking for our check-in luggage (cos there were simply too little as most people brought hand-carry) we finally cleared immigration and made our way to the hotel to check-in. We stayed at the Coronade Hotel, the location is awesome if you wanna shop shop shop n shop.. LOL It is situated directly opposite Sungei Wang Plaza and within walking distance to most of the shopping malls around that area. The minute we settled the hotel check-in we headed behind the street to have the long missed Bak Kut Teh (Herbal Pork Rib Soup) *Yummie* and after that.. needless to say.. walking all over the place to explore.. I really have no idea how many times we actually visited Times Square. I found the very talked-about 'Krispy Kreme Donut' that Keani is crazy over (Hey babe, u have yours in the States, I have mine in KL =P ) There is one setback during this trip.. I never got on that rollercoaster in the Cosmo's World Indoor Theme Park right inside Times Square itself.. Lach!! They only sell the package entrance tickets which I don't have time for.. I will be back... wait for me rollercoaster... keke.. Other than shopping.. we also drank like crazy.. I could never imagine that we could finish 3 beer towers... keke... Food is great too.. We managed to find the 'famous' Marmite Crab after some searching and well... the taste is not fantastic but something very different from what we normally have.. good!! *Thumbs Up* We should do this again sometime.. keke...
