CNY to KL 2019 Day 0: Arriving at Ramin Apartment

I checked back my blog and saw that we had been traveling every CNY since 2015. The long holiday was too tempting to be wasted. This year, it was no difference; we even self declared school holidays for the kids on Monday in order to have an extra long holiday. Woohoo!

The plan was to take half day leave, pick the kids from school and fly to the 2nd link. Daddy Lim picked me up after work. Holiday is always good; look how radiant I looked. Woohoo!
We were so worried that we would be stuck at the custom; a few years back, we were stuck for 3 hours enroute to Port Dickson. That usual 3 hours' journey took bloody 8 hours. Our colleagues were not helping and scaring us with 12 hours' custom jam story. Zzzzzzz. We kept our fingers and toes crossed and the custom was clear!
Woohoo! No jam! We cleared the custom easily in under 15 mins and were on our way, though it was still a long way to go. The spirits were high.

It was a long drive for a long time. The kids were well entertained with the videos that we downloaded into their phones and it was a peaceful drive.
We drove until the kids fell asleep.
Finally after a long almost 5 hours ride, we arrived at the airbnb. It was already dark by then. The airbnb was located at mid Genting. The cold climate was a bonus and an escape from the summer heat.

Ramin Apartment was located at a super ulu part. It was like the furthest point of civilisation. It was a cosy apartment; the kitchen was part of the living room and there was a double bed and a bunk bed in the bedroom.
There was convenient shops and food about 1 min drive away. We headed for dinner soon after we settled into the airbnb.
Dinner was simple at one of the Malay restaurants.
The rest of the night was spent watching youtubes bcos the cable TV was so lousy and we couldnt find anything to watch. Good night!
