Long Weekend Getaway Austin Height Day 1

The ultra long weekend is too wasteful to stay in Singapore but too expensive to fly somewhere. At times like that, the Causeway neighbour is our best friend. We did that the last National Day long weekend too with my brother's family.

This time, we are on our own bcos the 2nd F's PSLE Oral exam is around the corner. It was just as fun.

We took half day leave in attempt to beat the custom jam. Apparently, we weren't the only ones with the same idea. While the q was long at the Singapore end, the traffic was moving and we cleared the custom in 30 mins. Phew. We weren't so lucky at the Malaysia end - the jam was massive and we slowly inch forward. It took us a freaking 2 hours to clear the Malaysia end. Luckily Austin Heights is 30 mins drive after the custom.

Before long (after the custom), we arrived at the Airbnb. Daddy Lim did the booking and found us a nice little studio apartment.

There is a mini kitchen and 3 single beds in the living hall and a double bed in the single bedroom.

It was clean and neat. There was ample space for us. The towels, mattress covers and blankets were all very comfortable. You know how sometimes Airbnb comes with poor quality stuff. If I have any complaints, it would be the pillow. It would be fantastic if the pillows had been much fluffier.

The Airbnb was conveniently located where the action is. The Aeon shopping mall was a 8 mins' drive away. The kids were bugging to go to the Rocky Basecamp for some actions.

They are just so full of energy.

Being their 3rd visit, they are old timers already and went on scaling wall and climbing boulders.

The Basecamp was totally worth it. It only cost Rm25 per kid for 2 hours of fun.

We returned to the Airbnb vicinity for dinner before wasting our life in front of the gadget.
