Air Asia & Genting Highlands 5th January 2010

My very first trip with my parents. I mean going somewhere out of Kuching ;p

Flight at 11.50am. Weather was fine and flight was on time. Love the clouds.

Since it’s noon, we had lunch on board. First time pre-book the food. You can save 20% if you pre-book your food. Just present your boarding pass and you will be served. You will be served first before they start selling the food on board.

Left: Chicken Ham & Cheese Sandwich that was supposed to be roti canai but they changed their menu. Sandwich as it is.
Right: Bukhara Chicken Briyani, don’t really like it. It came with a small cup of water.

Wanted to claim my bro’s food which was nasi lemak since he won’t be going on the flight but the check-in counter girl said cannot… Wasted… Aih… I should have order the nasi lemak under my name rather than the roti canai.

Left: Chicken rice, not so bad. This also came with a small cup of water.

Right: We decided to go to KL Sentral instead of going to Genting direct from LCCT because it was too expensive! RM217!! We went to KL Sentral, paid RM27 for 3 persons. We wasted too much time waiting for the Skybus to start moving as the bus wasn’t full. Everything became way behind schedule.

Then took a taxi to Genting that cost us RM90. Actually only RM80 but since the taxi driver was so friendly and down to earth, my dad decided to give him RM10 tip. This photo was taken at a nearby petrol station as we went for the toilet.

The taxi sent us to the skyway station. The ride up there cost RM15 for 3 persons.

Luckily we took taxi else our room will be gone! We must check-in before 6pm and we reached the hotel at around 5.30pm. That was close! If we’re using bus, we won’t be in time. Furthermore it took us quite a while to walk to Theme Park Hotel from the skyway station because it’s very far away. The entrance wasn’t far from the outdoor theme park entrance.

The quad room I booked last year. Only RM78.80! What a steal! First World Hotel got very small room, less facilities, price was almost the same and only could fit 2 persons. Theme Park Hotel… 4 persons! Room was big and we got very nice view. Inclusive of breakfast for 2.

The pictures here do not justify the beauty though. What to do? I’m a lousy photographer ;p You really have to see it with your own eyes. Can’t wait to show you the sunrise view.
