We went to Awana Genting Highland to celebrate our 4th Year wedding anniversary (we honeymoon here after driving back from Awana Kijal). I managed to buy the vouchers via Lowyat for RM45; free one night stay at Awana Genting Highland among it's many offerings. We started our journey quite late; at around 11.30am and we stopped for lunch at McD NKVE (Petronas). We arrived at Awana around 2pm and we proceed for check-in. It took awhile as the queue is quite long. It was worth the wait as upon the confirmation of our room via the vouchers, we were given a free breakfast buffet vouchers by the Hotel staff (she thinks that Arief is cute and it would be a hassle for us to go and buy breakfast in the morning). Our room is on level 11; and the finishing of the room is very impressive as compared to our previous experience. Thumbs up to Awana Genting Highland :-)
We drove up to the theme parks at around 4pm and we parked at Genting Resort. Arief was already excited to explore the new surroundings; and it was quite cold too. The journey to the indoor park is quite far from here with many escalators and walkways. We passed by their Casino and as well as the Vision City (arcade games). Upon arriving at the Indoor Theme Park, we asked Arief whether he would want to play with all the rides but he declined. We ended up just touring all the retail shops available. I did bought Ultraman stickers for Arief to keep him busy while we have our early dinner later. We wanted to have something hot but not the usual fast food outlets; we eventually went for dinner at Hou Wei. We ordered roasted chicken rice and Hor Fun Soup; both is quite delicious :-)
As promised, we took Arief to the arcade game where we spend RM30 playing the arcades; from Daytona to Drum Machines to Dance Mania and basketball. All three of us likes playing "Go-Go-Balls" where we hit the object on the screen with small plastic balls. Arief also join in the fun by throwing the plastic balls. We also play the water fire and baseball. We collected about 179 tickets and we redeem it for a set of fridge magnets and stickers. Btw it took us awhile to coerce Arief to stop playing at the arcade. On our way out we bought KFC Snack Plate for Arief. It was already 8.30pm and it was quite foggy and cold. The drive down to Awana was a bit dangerous with the low visibility. Alhamdulillah we arrive safely and Arief fall asleep in the car :-)
