Genting Trip 2010 (March 2nd - March 5th)

It's been a month since my Genting trip with the boyfriend. So today, I will update this space with pictures of the trip! Which is good. Because I haven't had any private photos up here for a pretty long time. Anyway, here goes.

Day 1 (March 2nd 2010)

We arrived at Genting at about 2pm? I think Check-in was around 4pm though. So we stoned around and ate MerryBrown while waiting for time to pass~~

This is my boyfriend stealing my Pepsi. He looks very bored.

This is me. I look very bored too. I probably felt disturbingly bored because we could go nowhere since we had our luggage to tow around.

BY THE WAY, Speaking about luggage... I was unpleasantly surprised when we were collecting our luggage from the coach after arriving in Genting. When my bag came out, all I saw was a mob of ants coating it. Aaaaaaanddd, GUESS WHAT? MY BAG WAS THE ONLY BAG THAT WAS INFESTED WITH ANTS! Lucky or what? Instant turn off! ): I was so put off by the sight of the ants that I didn't even remember to take a picture of it. I can only remember the boyfriend and the coach driver trying their very best to sweep off the annoying bugs.

Needless to say, I spent the next two days feeling extremely itchy all over because I imagined ants crawling all around my clothes. Ugh. The thought of it disgusts me. ):


Nevertheless, that was definitely something new and different... Though I'd like very much for that to never happen again. ):

After MerryBrown, which tasted extremely average... We went to walk around some more and it was finally time for check in! I don't have any pictures of our bedroom but it was really small, cramped and not picture-worthy anyway!

After settling down, we decided to explore more of the place.

This is the boyfriend at our lift lobby.

This is the view from our lift lobby. I miss the view already. It always looked green and inviting. Not like in Singapore where you see Flats all over. Ugh.

This is him shoving money into my face for some reason. Most annoying boyfriend on Earth award goes to .... Mr. Teo Gui Jie.

Since we really didn't know what to do anymore for the rest of the day, we decided to explore out of Genting... So we decided to take the Cable Car!!!

Sounds Good? No. Bad Idea. I'll tell you why in a bit.


This is the waiting area for the Cable Car.

This is us looking very hyped up for the Cable Car trip not knowing what was about to befall us...........................................

This is us... On the trip... Still looking hyped.
Him. Very Happy hor.

Our View.

Hahaha. Actually... I exaggerated la. It wasn't exactly a terrible trip. It was just that after awhile, we got incredibly restless and bored because the trip took almost 25 minutes to complete! Imagine being on a cable car for 25 minutes. It was pretty scary because the capsule was extremely quiet since we were the only 2 on that particular capsule. But I guess it was a good experience all in all. Though a tad too long. The view got boring after awhile.


This is me looking very very bored and restless already.

This is us. Both looking very very bored and restless.

And.... It was finally time for us to alight. I actually have a video of us while we were in the capsule but I just watched it and I am frankly too embarrassed to upload it. :/

Back to where I was. Uhm, we actually took the cable car down because we wanted to go to the stawbelly Strawberry Farm but...

We couldn't find our way.

At all. We kept ending up at the 4th Level.

And so... We...

Took the bloody Cable Car back all the way to Genting again after 20 minutes of lurking around, trying to find Stawbelly farm (Inside Joke, sorry) to no avail.

But all's good because we found cheap and good Gui Ling Gao when we arrived back in Genting! I likeeeee!!

The shop.

Sugar Syrup Goodness. Yumz.

Our awesome Gui Ling Gao which was bought at an extremely cheap price. I can't remember how much exactly was it priced though. I just know that it was extremely cheap for this huge a serving.

Boyfriend happily eating up the Gui Ling Gao and not acknowledging my picture taking session of him.

Later on, we went to.... The place we frequented the most often during our 4 days in Genting.
The... Arcade. -_-

Mr. Manatee playing some driving game which he didn't win. (I think.) Heheh.

People play driving, I play camwhore. Ugly camwhore. ):

And then... It was dinner time. What better dinner than....

JAPANESE CUISINE??!

Honestly, I don't think anyone can ever get sick of raw fish and Japanese goodness. I know I won't. Okay, anyway, we settled our MY Japanese craving at Sushi King. Which was extremely affordable considering the quality of their food. Which was way way way wayyyy better and still cheaper than Sakae Sushi. Sakae Sushi is a bloody rip off for its terrible quality. Ugh. NEVER. NEVER. Eat Sakae Sushi. NEVER.

My boyfriend looking very lovingly at his wasabi.

Green Tea. I made the mistake of ordering Cold Green Tea. It tasted blander than plain water. Ugh.

Udon. Wasn't too fantastic. But the entire set meal only cost us about less than 8SGD. Which is cheap.
Tempura. I think it came with my sashimi set. Which was about less than 10 SGD?

My sashimi set. Came complete with many slices of Raw Salmon goodness, rice, Chawanmushi, Tempura and a thoughtful bottle of Yakult. Very cheap for the amount of items that were served to me.

I am a fat girl because I finished my food. *burps*

Boyfriend. Not looking happy because his tray was considerably less crowded than mine was. Hehe.

After that, we went back to our hotel room and slacked till about 12am when we decided to explore out of the room again!

Random photo of a Seahorse ornament seating in the middle of a fountain area.

Baskin Robins at 12.44am (According to the time recorded in my Camera). No wonder I grew considerably fatter after the trip.

Boyfriend loves Ice Cweam more than me. ): Sad Vilvian.

And another random photo of a window.
...

After which we closed the windows of our souls (called our eyes) for the day and awaited for the beginning of a new day (called tomorrow).

k, sorry. Brain no longer working.

I wanted to squeeze all 4 days into 1 post but day 1 took so long to finish. So I've decided to end the post here and I'll update this space again tomorrow!!

Okay,

Toodles!!
