Another JB Trip: Day 2, Par2, Laser Battle and Danga Bay

We had lunch and headed to City Square for laser tag. It was a booking at 4.30pm, which meant a lot of mall crawling. This got us all very tired. 

The last 30 mins were spent in the arcade. Daddy Lim and I nuahed in a cafe and I even stole a cat nap. Hoho. Old people lah. 

After like forever... 

We paid RM58 per pax for 3 games. 

The 1st game, the kids dictated that it would be kids against the adults, thinking that their parents are old people and cannot move. Sure lose. Did they win? Of course not lah. They have not eaten enough salt yet and yours truly is very good with laser tag, which they found out too late. Hoho. 

It was a great workout for most of us, except for Daddy Lim, whose strategy was to park and snipe most of the game. Lol. After the 3 games, he was very surprised that I was perspiring. Ya lah. His strategy was actually not bad, he had good scores and very chill session.

The session brought us right up to dinner. After dinner, we went to Danga Bay Fun Park, where some fun fair/ amusement park is. There was a lot of lights. 

This was the 1st thing that caught our attention. 

I used to play this when I was a kid during CNY! I don't think these are sold in Singapore anymore. 

We didn't see many thrilling rides. There are many kiddy merry go round and stuff though. This caught our eye. 

The control is via the joystick panel. The wheel rolled forward/ backward with each stop/ start motion. There is no safety belt and it looked like somebody could be thrown out anytime but I didn't see that fortunately. I am not sure if it is intentional but the thrill level goes up one notch (for the spectator particularly) when that small space is shared by the kiddy motorcycle riders who were blasting their horn non-stop. Throughout the ride, I only heard Nana screamed continuously, regardless of whether it was her partner or her operating the machine. Lol. 

Then we went in search for more thrilling ride. I was joking that the most thrilling ride would be the one that looked the oldest/ most worn and the fear of the machine falling apart would keep the rider on the toes. Lol. The kids eventually went for the super fast merry-go-round for MYR 10 each. 

What I was keen to do was the bumper car at MYR10 each too. Again, the cars looked worn and there was no safety belt. Ferlin almost didn't make the cut for height restriction and had to share a car with the adult. After the ride, I fully understood the restriction. She is way too tiny and was thrown around like rag doll on the ride. Some of the bumps were really hard and I was bouncing around in the car too, let alone the tiny her. Luckily Daddy Lim opted out. I think the bumping would break his AS bones. 

With that, we headed back to the room for bed. Yawns. End of day 2.

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!
