Another JB Trip: Day 2 Part 1, Forever Twenty One Cafe

I think the people who lived in Mosiac don't exercise much bcos the gym and swimming pool are opened only from 8am to 8pm. The host told us that we could access the facilities and just need to register with the guard. 

On Saturday morning, I was up at 6ish and started on my HIIT in the room before the family was up. Right before I ended, Daddy Lim came out of the room, followed soon by Zaky, which meant that bfast would need to take place soon. 

I did pop by the gym and swimming pool before that. Looking good. 



Our last big holiday was way back in end 2019, when Nana hasn't found the joy of sleeping in. It is a different story now and we had to threaten her of leaving her in the room before she rolled off the bed.

There is 1 kopitiam right below our Airbnb. Fortunately, the food is good. We met my brother's family for bfast. 

The 1st stop of the day is this Forever Twenty One Cafe. 

Right where we parked, we saw another 主恩 church!




Ah Kim booked this toast painting activity for the kids. I thought it was a real cafe and the adults would have some coffee while waiting for the kids. It turned out that there was no coffee but many other pretty hands-on activities. Everything about the cafe is so pink.



Other than this toast painting, there is this decorative activity. Look at all the colorful accessories. 

Not long after, the kids started with the painting. Zaky's masterpiece.


Nana's. 


The "paint" is actually coloured yogurt. Right after I had snapped Zaky's art pieces, he added more yogurt, mixed everything up and chomped it. Lol. I found the taste weird but the kids enjoyed the toast. 

Part 2 for Nana was this keychain making. It wasn't cheap, at RM28 per piece but it was so nice. 

Learning how to pipe.

The actual work.

So nice right?!

Zaky wasn't interested in these. I made him work on a mini lego piece or risk him making a lot of noise when he got bored. 

Nana went on her 3rd activity, Brickbear keychain painting. 

She was very pleased with the morning's activity.

Another JB Trip: Day 1 Part 2, Escape Room

My brother's family joined us in JB. Ferlin didn't pontan school and they came in the afternoon. We managed to stay in the same building - Southkey Mosiac Residential. The self checkin was a breeze. 

Welcome to our humble abode for the next 2 nights. 

Ya, I was attracted by the Totoro drawing, thus the booking. The Airbnb was alright. There are 2 bedrooms, one with a double bed and another room with one single bed and one double bed. 

Shortly after we have settled down, we were off again to Austin Heights. What did we do? Another Escape Room. 





The kids are seriously getting so good. My only contribution in the entire game was to suggest shining the UV light at a picture. Lol. 

There are so many good food at Austin Heights. Daddy Lim concurred strongly with the choice - Korean BBQ. Look at thespread of the refillable 小菜. 

There were alot of food. 

Daddy Lim was very happy with dinner. All gone...


Claw machine is a must do routin in Austin Heights. 
Nana caught a pretty soft toy. She was so pleased. 

I like this claw machine shop bcos it comes with this brainless game machine. By right, the winnings can be used to exchange for gifts but 十赌九输, the chances of winning (big enough) is so slim. 

That called it a night for us. 

But not before Nana's favorite 冰糖"葫芦". 
Daddy Lim said that he was so full from dinner but ended up finishing most of it. It is OK, it is fruits and fruits help with digestion. Hohoho.

The 3 of us squeezed in the room while Daddy Lim had a room to himself. Why? Bcos he grinds his teeth and nobody wants to sleep with him. Hoho. 

The room is equipped with a ceiling fan and Zaky asked to turn it on. Then asked me what if it dropped on us? Wah lau, win le. I had that exact same thought just moments ago and he had to verbalise it for me. The paranoid me turned off the fan soon after Zaky fell asleep. I also scared leh.

Good night!

Another JB Trip: Day 1 Part 1, Mall Crawl

Why? Bcos:

- PSLE is over and we can pontan school

- Nana has started her school holidays

- The Melbourne holiday is still over 3 weeks away and we needed a distraction.

What beats a short getaway across the causeway? Ya, nothing and thus we are on our way. Hohoho. 

Daddy Lim and I took leave in case of crazy traffic at the immigration. We decided to head over in the late morning, just in time to arrive in Malaysia for lunch. 

Where is Nana? Hiding behind me and busy with her phone. 

The immigration was very smooth and there was almost no wait. The drive to the Southkey Mall took about 30 mins and voila! Our holiday has started. All holidays make me happy. Hoho.

What do we do when we are in a Malaysia Mall? The 1st thing is to buy and chew gum, then to practice the long forgotten bubble blowing skill. 

Zaky was very proud to show us his 1st ever bubble.

Of course there must be lunch. 



Then shopping and definitely arcade. The boy was whinning so much over the shopping that I was so glad to find an arcade. 

The games are lousy. It was literally just to burn time and $$. Nana and Zaky both wanted to try this baby game. 


It is meant for kids below 130cm lor. They are like giants in that small chamber. Lol. 

Then more monkeying around before we drove to our Airbnb for checkin. 



See how strong Zaky now is. Actually, it is bcos Nana is light. Hoho.
