Genting Part 2

What did we do at Genting?  First, hubby threw RM300 at the arcades. Hahhaa.  Well it was RM10 a pop at the various stalls thus the money flew quickly (with nothing to show for it either).  Then hubby had to try his luck getting little toys from machine games.  This had slightly better returns compared to the stalls but I was like... thought the kids were supposed to be playing and not YOU??  So he bought another card for them and they managed to get some action.

Shoot! Shoot! (Fish toy between them being the first of arcade toys)


We hadn't walked around all the sections before. Was quite nice to meander around looking at this and that.

Since it wasn't regular school holidays, Genting wasn't too crowded. Got the day pass for the indoor theme park.  I noticed a few rehashed rides from the old days when JE was small.  They had strict height limits though and even SE couldn't get to ride those any more.

Check out our horses!


And our car!

One thing even without crowds, it does take quite some time to get to the actual ride. The process to scan in, people choosing the horse/car/carriage etc and getting in/on, the staff going round to check the safety belts.  The kids were thrilled, the adults were EXHAUSTED haha.  There weren't that many benches to sit on while waiting.  Neither hubby nor me are into rides so we didn't get passes for ourselves.

Yay we got cotton candy!

The kids mostly went on rides separately.  JE liked the sky tower one which SE was too scared to try.  SE went on this ferris wheel all by herself.  Actually I was rather scared for her.  This ride is very high - what if she fiddled with the door and managed to open it while her car was at the top?  She was alone in the car.  There was a parent-and-child queuing up with SE but the ride attendant motioned them to the next car.  And the wheel kept stopping to let people in and out of cars, meaning those near the top would stay high for quite some time. I watched, heart in the mouth, throughout the 2 full rounds that constituted a ride.

Hello mummy!

Finally the ride finished.  SE said it was scary but fun.  And she wanted to go again.  Hahaha.  Well I let her go once more.  And then decided better not to test luck too many times plus it was past time to go home. Sooo tired from this trip.  (Some more traffic was terrible going home and next day was a school day.  Gahh)

  1. Better spend at the arcades and let the children enjoy themselves than spend at casino. why didn't JE go sit with SE on the ferris wheel?

  2. Kids love the game arcades. Nothing much for the adults except the casinos.
