3D, 2N visit in Malaysia!

3 days before I finally say "bye" for a little while in Malaysia, my best friend, Leah and her daughter came here to visit us! Of course, Elitistas HQ is always open for visitors and we offer free breakfast that's why it is more cheaper than staying in a hotel here in Malaysia. What are friends are for right!! :D

Their planned stay is real quick, thus, we have prepared a not so jam packed itinerary for both of them that we hope they enjoyed.

They arrived at 1:30am (Sept15) and I was accompanied by Ced because my husband was currently working (Boo Sweets)!  We rented a car to bring us to and from LCCT (Low Cost Carrier Terminal) because LCCT and our condo is approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour travel, it took us RM90 which is not bad at all.

Fortunately, when we arrived home, Sweets was already at home and he helped us carry our things.  I asked Leah and Gladys to be quick and sleep ASAP since we have to wake up early to proceed with our next destination.  We finished fixing things at 3am and woke up at 7am.

Up by 7am, I fixed their breakfast and asked them to fix themselves already. Our route for the day was very simple.

1. Visit St. John Cathedral to say "Thanks" for the safe journey they had as well as for the opportunity to visit Malaysia.

2. Accompany me to EPS for my 9am contract signing (yey!)

3. Catch the 10am Go Genting bus that will bring us to the skyway transfer via the cable car ride.

One good thing about being in Malaysia (well for Go Genting) is that they strictly follow the time, in the Go Genting bus, when they said 10am it will leave by 10am.  True enough, it did!

We traveled for about 45 minutes and then went aboard to the Cable Car!

It was my second time to ride the Cable Car but it was much better because the view was very clear.  There were no fog and thus we all saw the mountains and terrains which were very amazing.  Amazing how nature looks like and how it was preserved even when the Cable Car was created there.

First thing we did when we arrived at Genting was to eat! This is to make sure we have the energy to go on with the rides.  Our first priority was to complete the Indoor Theme Park.

One of the few rides that they (Leah and Gladys) took was the Gondola..

I was none other than their pretty photographer at that time.

Will they miss one of the famous attractions there, the Snow World? Of course not!

A lot of photo opps were captured and these photos are something that will be cherished forever. One thing I am sure they will never forget was when they had their hand waxed!

The beautiful finish product!

We were not able to go to the outdoor theme park because it was raining.. boo! But that's fine, it saved us enough money for the next day tour!

Rise and shine! For the second day (Sept 16), we have Sweets to accompany  us to be the photographer! I know Sweets is better that me but just 90% better! :p

This is Leah and Gladys while we were waiting for the train.

Right behind them was our condo (Menara Jaya)

Our first stop for the day was Titiwangsa Lake! Went for another train ride to finally reach our destination.

 When we were at Titiwangsa, it was like ghost town.  It was Sept 16 and it was Malaysia Day.  They said that during holidays, people in Malaysia are at home, don't know how true but maybe it was at the time we were at Titiwangsa.

Because of the fog, the Twin Tower was not visible at the upper part of the photo, but it was in the lake's reflection! Again, a lot of photo opps were done. Gladys was already tired because of the heat of the sun. :(


One final activity in Titiwangsa was the boat ride.

Our next destination was Central Market for some souvenirs.

While we were inside, it rained and it was a perfect opportunity for us to have some coffee and toast at Old Town White Coffee.

Right after the rain has stopped, we immediately went ahead to Aquaria. This is one of the famous tourist spot here in Malaysia.  You will not only have a view of the sea world, there were also some other mammals here. Plus the fact that their "water journey" is a lot longer than what we have in Ocean Park.

It was a refreshing experience to have a view of what is under the sea.  Fishes were very calm as if they were not thinking about anything.  Looking at them relaxed my mind and they were so pleasant and at the same time silent.

There was this big glass right outside the tunnel, it was like a large human sized aquarium, a good view to look at the fishes again. It's as if the fishes are right in front of us! Cool!

Before we left Aquaria, Leah and Gladys had their caricature made!
Impromptu and it was cool (coming from a person who does not know how to draw) :)


Here are the videos that captured the making of the caricature!


















And the finish product is.. jan-jan-na-nan!

Well I am not that convinced! Leah became sexy, well I think that's how caricature should look like, right!

Our Aquaria journey took us about one and a half hours.. hehe.. but it was a very good journey at that!


Now off to have dinner!!

We had our well deserved dinner at Nandos. I really love their chicken and fries!

Leah will kill me if we will not visit the Twin Tower view and thus it was our last stop for the day!

Thanks Leah and Gladys for visiting us here in Malaysia. Although very quick, I do hope that they;


1. Appreciated the places that we visited
2. Were energized by the breakfast that I cooked
3. Were happy with the pictures that Sweets and I took
4. Did not mind that I was always in a hurry (to make sure that we have enough time)
5. Will come back and visit us again, then we will go to Singapore!


Aja!
