Eid al-Adha @ Genting


This is the second year we are celebrating Hari Raya Haji in Kajang. Oh I forgot, last year we were away actually. We went to Cherating last year a day before Aidil Adha and I did post something about our trip to Pahang exactly a year earlier. It has somewhat become our habit now to celebrate Aidil Adha in an unconventional ways. And this time around, after solat sunat, we went straight to Genting Highlands for a day trip. Adeeb and me was so excited as we've never been there and I just couldn't stop wondering what will it be like , the City of Excitement.. the city offf... zzzzzzzzz

and when I woke up, we were already at the car park. According to my estimation, we reached the place in less than 2 hours! I thought the journey will be like going to Cameron Highlands but the road leading up to Genting is not as winding. They were right about Genting or Kota Keriangan. But I wasn't been warned about the crowd. It was public holiday on that day, and the place was .. oh my God, so crowded. When we entered the indoor park or the First World Plaza we were lost in the crowd but we managed to locate the ticket counter and mama purchased family package ticket to both indoor and outdoor theme park. Our first game took us about 20 minutes of queuing time..

then, we walked to the outdoor theme park, it was not that far, just outside the plaza..

it was hazy outside, and it was colder.. so we chose to play the carousel first as the queue was shorter

it took us about 15 minutes before we could play this game.. hehe but it was fun, I sat with mama in the red flying jumbo while Adeeb board the yellow one with babah..

of all the ride, this was the scariest one, you should see the video of this ride and you would see me almost crying.. hehe! but I would love to do it again..

it was hazy with a little bit of rain..

Adeeb was sleeping while queuing for this ride.. it was worth the wait.. it took us around the Plaza but as usual, the ride time is shorter than waiting time..

this ride was called Antique Car, the problem is the car was too close to each other that sometimes we couldn't help but hit the car in front..

before we left, babah took us outside to take photos, but not after we took the final ride into the haunted house. I took the car ride with babah, but I didn't really see anything scary, there were screams all the way to the exit door from the loudspeakers and ghost figures everywhere but it was.. hmm not scary at all, to me at least but not for Adeeb and mama as both of them close their eyes all the way to the exit door, surprisingly for someone who love watching ghost movies .. hehe

We left the place at about 5 pm. I was so tired and was sleeping along the journey home. In the spirit of Aidil Adha, babah stopped by to buy lemang and rendang at a stop not far from Gombak Toll. We reached home just in time for Maghrib. After shower we watched the photos and videos of our trip on TV and went to bed early.. tomorrow will be another day and babah promised to take us out again..
