JB - Spore - JB ...


It's been years since i stepped my foot in Spore and last month, I decided to get my butt there for the school holiday. I kept it secret from the kids of course... just let them feel over the moon just few days before leaving..

So I bought the USS ticket online, which include the express card, thinking that it's school holiday and I'll be damn know there's gonna be a longgggggg queue for every ride and all cost me *pengsan*... we stayed in JB coz staying in Merlion means *die* for me.. if you know what I mean... 

Just few days before leaving, I keep on comtemplating whether to drive, to fly, take a bus or go on the choo choo... At last I decided to spill the beans and ask the kids.. we're going to so and so this holiday and how do feel like going there... giving them only 2 options (ha.. ha.. ha.. mom's rules), we decided to go on choo choo train.. so here's where the chaos started..

3 days before departure..
Went to Commuter station to buy night tickets not knowing all sold out..!!! *nak jerit plis..*. So we bought a day train but no return ticket.. *sangat pandai*.. So balik rumah family discussion..

2 days before departure..
Decided to drive je... Ask Shah to sell back the ticket and get a refund. Yes, we got it alright but kena deduction.. 

1 day before departure..
Me gatal tangan gi call KTMB asking if there is night train to JB. Sekali the lady kata ada tiket lagi coz ada coach tambahan... *oh feel like hugging that lady really tight*..  I called Shah to get on his butt right at that moment to buy the night tickets, which means departure on that night itself... keje giler kannnn... Once he got the tickets, I told my boss for an early exit from the office and pecut balik coz I havent done with my packing..!!! Of course the kids excited and keep asking questions this and that.. haiyohhh.. jakun okay.. 1st time naik keretapi...
on board the komuter to KL Sentral  
We arrived JB around 7.30am. Adoiiii awalnya.. Ok 1st destination: makan place. We googled and found Singgahsana.. Were there from 8am till 11am.. Bayangkan how many food and drinks we ordered.. Arrive early at the hotel but unable to check-in.. Bilik tak siap.. *nak jerit plis..* To kill time, left the luggage at the hotel, took cab and went to KLS mall. Let me tell you one thing about cab fare in JB... EXPENSIVE..!!!

Adli stoned with music
I need my sleep..!!!
Since I was in JB, I kill two birds with one stone by visiting the facility in Setia Business Park. (Of course with purpose so I get to put that in my travel expense..) *shush now..*

Lil Aira wants the pool... coaxing her to wait till we check in

Finally....
She doesnt want to come out...


Awesome view from our room...

Took a cab to USS... balik naik MRT.. from one to another.. konon nak adventurous... letihhh hokay...!!!



the boys went up there...
the best ride ever...

well, that’s the end of our 3D/2N relaxing stay at the palace of golden horses. very unique and exclusive type of hotel and most suitable for business travellers. not many activities to do there except for golfing, cycling - where u can rent a bicycle, swimming or spa-ing. i love the calm and greeny surroundings the hotel. mines shopping fair is the nearest from the hotel and nice place for shopping too. eating places within walking distance is nowhere to find so tak leh nak lepak-ing. lepak kat room je la.. tapi tak boleh la nak order banyak for room services. mahal!!!...
