1st Family Vacation - 3D2N Sunway Lagoon.

Finally, the family took an oversea vacation to Sunway Lagoon, 13 - 15 Sep 2006. We went in a party of 4 adults and 2 children.

This is the 1st Time experienced for anthea and anders on aeroplane, we took JAL from SIN-KUL-SIN. The 2 mains reasons that made us decided to go on plane instead of cheaper option of Coach are -

1. The Children can experienced the plane ride;
2. Coach ride is LONG, so we were worried that the children cannot take it...more like, the adults are stressed.
So on 13 Sep, we took the evening flight from Changi Airport T1.

Well for 1st timers, i am proud of anthea and anders as both took the flights really well. Anders did get a bit scared initially but he settled in very soon, as for anthea, she is like a regular traveller, using the headphone once she got onboard.

The flight went smoothly and took about 40minutes and we were in KLIA.

We check into Sunway Resort and hotel and went to bed for the night.

Day 2 :

Started with a good sumptous hotel buffet breakfast and the kids were so eager to get to the Theme Park.

We had a Fun filled day in the Sunway Lagoon and both anthea and anders were so happy that when it was time to return to the hotel, they were so sad.

After lunch, we rested in the hotel. The children had about 2 hours of power nap. Then in the evening, we went to Mid Valley shopping centre for our dinner/ shopping. From the hotel to this shopping centre, it is about 15 mins, taxi fare is about MYR 25.00.

There are about 300 of shops in this megamall and if you are really into shopping, i recommend that a Day trip will be better. For us, it is more of a window shopping. I bought a set of baju for Siti, cost about RM $80.00 and she was happy.

After shopping, we went for drinks and cakes at the Dome cafe. Generally food in Malaysia tasted better or it it because of holiday mood.

Back to hotel for a night rest.

Day 3:

Basically it is a F&E day for us. Had breakfast, walk around the hotel area, shop in pyramid shopping centre, went for a swimming session with the children. Had lunch, power naps, then packed up and went to KLIA. The trip from hotel to airport is about 30 mins.

JAL flights departs in the evening from KUL to SIN. Anthea and anders enjoyed the flights. As usual, the welcome gang (grand dad, uncle Louis and aunty Eve) is at Changi Airport waiting for us upon arrival.

Overall, it was a very fun trip for the whole family. This trip has encourage me to plan for the next family vacation. Hopefully, this time a bit further - Hong Kong or Australia.
