Mum booked a private mini-bus for 12 at $700. The driver came to our area and fetched us around 11pm before fetching Aunt at Beachroad.
Saves us the trouble from moving around as everyone was working on Fri :)
Travis first Passport stamp, and long journey bus trip to Malaysia
Journey to Genting was pretty smooth and we reached around 6am.As rooms are only available at 3pm, we went to Casino and signed up for membership. Two cards were being issued immediately:1. Membership card for discounts and food voucher rebate2. Jackpot card (with photo) to play and claim winningsWe roamed around in the Casino but was pretty uncomfortable initially as the place was quite smoky. Sis and the children (below 21) were out there, hunting for place to settle down and good food.Sis family and bro had 'Marybrown' for breakfast, but didn't look good. Dad, aunt and myself headed to KFC instead of Mac to try out something different but regretted. Should have taken the safer bet :(Both Marybrown and KFC was bad! Expensive and not tasty.- KFC 'big breakfast': Dried scramble egg, chicken patty with miserable bun & mashed potatoes.- KFC Nasi Lemak wrap: Rice wrapped with Ikan bilis, egg and chicken- KFC Chicken porridge: Watery porridge with shredded chicken- Orange juice: Sweet sweet sweetHmmm.We walked to Genting Hotel to explore the time as it's still early. All shops are still closed except for? Casino! Dad, darling and I went up to take a look as Casino at Genting Hotel is supposed to be bigger. Dad tried his luck in '3 cards'- the game and won back the breakfast money. Yeah...Walked around, round and round till we got bored. Darling and I went back to Casino to find out more about the games and regulations. Bet and lost RM50 at the number guessing game. Got hungry and went to MacDonald for a Quarter Pounder meal - no longer available in SG :)Tired Travis
Rooms are finally ready at 3.30pm after finishing the entire shopping complex and theme park. Dad and bros caught a nap before leaving for KL at 5.30pm. Journey to KL was long due to bad traffic and we took almost 2.30 hours to reach Chinatown.
Bus emitted a very strong diesel smell and broke down after 5mins!
The rest? Busy with photo-taking!
Everyone was so hungry and Aunt suggested the 'Zi Char' stall around the corner in Chinatown. We knew it was a bad choice as their prices are way high to earn tourist money. The service was really bad when they realized we are not in for a big meal. We only ordered the basic staple as we're more looking forward for roadside goodies. Yet we got the 'looked down' service standard for it! Damn... Rice wasn't even served after all dishes were up till we request for it.Remarks: Bad! Food wasn't fantastic but super average and we were being charged RM2 for each bowl of rice, SGD$1!Split ways for shopping after dinner... Almost 1/2 of the shops were closed by then. Think due to policemen checks as a group of policemen are spotted in the cross-junction. Bf had beef noodles by the roadside and the beefball was kinda good, Q!Took our bus back to Genting around 11.30pm and was knocked off at 3am... Zzz!
The heart's cold, it's just another beautiful mistake. 2:57 AM
