I'm so sorry to my jiemeis for the sudden missing in action for the past few days before prom. The trip to KL-Genting was serious hardcore shopping. A full 3 day trail through all the malls was exerting on those legs that haven been through much exercise for a long time, followed by a last day of thriller rides at Genting highlands. I have a crazy cousin that find no thrills in all the rides much to my horror, for those who know me well should know of my phobia of those winding paths that roller coasters follow. And because we were the only kids on the trip that had a heart strong enough for those thrills, i was inevitably peer-pressured into checking out those rides with her.
This trip was particularly different because it was a self-initiated, free and easy trip. We were led by my uncle who drove into the foreign land which was pretty cool because it was a different experience that allowed us to do what the locals do. We took the monorail for short distances and their kind of MRT for longer distances when we went to the mega mall at mid valley.
The railway station looks pretty much the same as ours, but their system of transport wasn't as efficient.
For every trip we made we had to buy tickets of fixed prices from station to station..
And for crowded places the queue could get as long as hello kitty..
It was a nice experience overall because all i had to worry about was eat, shop and sleep, besides the ambivalent feeling of having to get onto roller coasters. My uncle's family frequent KL pretty often, hence all i had to do was tag along and feast on the good food that was introduced to us.
The last day was spent at Genting highlands. Because we drove up instead of taking the cable car, the ride up was winding and steep which was just as much thrill as a roller coaster (at least to me) LOL. It was a 45 mins ride to genting from KL, which was short compared to the route home from genting which came up to 7 hours when we finally passed through the custom.
Time spent at genting was limited and we had only 3 hours plus for the rides after taking into account the time needed to drive home.
So this is me and my daredevil cousin that is afraid of moving bugs but not roller coaster.
First attempt at go-carting. My cousin thinks i drive like a pro. hahaha. unlike the fat lady or someone behind who can't brake in time and ramp into me. -_-
My sadistic cousin loves to spin super fast on the teacup and laugh at her friends who can't walk straight after that.. And she loves talking to me on the roller coaster telling me to look at the people, the trees, whatever and make me answer her, while i try to make her shut up so that i can focus on shutting my eyes. -_-
nice view from the hotel lobby
