KL Day 1 Part 2: District 21

The staff at the Farm in the City helped us to dial a cab to the IOI City Mall, where District 21 is. It was near to the farm and we arrived in less than 15 mins. We had lunch and found our way to District 21. It is a huge "indoor playground" but for big kids. It is another jem that I read about on the Internet.

It wasn't cheap though. We bought passes for the kids at RM75 each. It gives them unlimited play until 8pm. The adults had to pay RM10 each to enter. We didn't feel safe leaving them in the playground alone.

Despite the long and hot morning in the farm, they were all ready to go. 1st, the obstacle course.
The entrance led them to a long climb. Can you spot them?

 Then to wall and web climbing.



There is also this interesting stairs where one jumps off after climbing to the top. Zaky went up without issue. Lil Shauna followed shortly.

The kids then took this rubber tubing ride that looks super fun. It is like snow sledding but on a huge rubber slope. They had to lug their tubing after to the top after that 3 seconds adrenaline slide.




They gave up after a few rounds though, bcos it was too much hard work lugging the tubing.

With the adrenline pumping, they went on to experience free fall. Interestingly, Zaky took the lead the jiejie followed behind. Lil Shauna probably wouldnt have done it alone. Zaky barely met the height requirement and was so excited that he could do the free fall. All geared up.
Woohoo!



I was suddenly very glad that I didn't buy the pass for myself. I don't think my aging heart would appreciate me jumping off the 2nd level.

Next, Zaky attempted the kiddy ziplining.

Lil Shauna exceeded the height limit and opted for the bicycle instead.
At this point, I was thoroughly exhausted. I quietly retreated back to the table at the cafe and actually stole a cat nap. I was in lala land in seconds after putting my head on the table. I even drooled.. lol and attempted to discreetly wipe  the puddle away. When I woke up, I found out that Daddy Lim sneaked a nap too. We are old people already.

While the parents concussed, the kids were happily jumping on the huge trampoline.



Yes, I am just as amazed at how energetic the kids were. I was half dead even when my job was to stand around to take pictures. Lol. Lil Shauna loves the trampoline and spent a lot of time bouncing and bouncing.

We took a cab back to the hotel after 3 solid hours of activities. It was the kids' turn to collapse on the way back. Zaky took a long nap and Lil Shauna though was awake, was very dead.

Nobody wanted to get out of the hotel for dinner. Yours truly braved the unfamiliar landscape and found subway. Anything hot and delivered to the room was good for the kids. Lol.

It was amazing how we survived the long day. Day 1 of the trip was definitely well utilised. Sob, I don't want the holiday to end so quickly.
