Adventure in KL

KL is the last place i would spend my holiday at but somehow me and my collegue, Ahilah, just thought of going around KL for our labour day 2 days break. It was fun actually. I woke up 30 minutes later than i intended and she had to wait for me at the train station. Hehe... so bad of me..

We took a train to KL Sentral and then from there we took a cab to Butterfly park.
We started out in Butterfly park and it was funny. The lady at the counter actually asked for my Mykard to verify that i'm a local! (they have different entrance ticket rate for local and tourist)
What??!! Do i look like some Ah lian for China??? WTH....
The butterflies were just alright not as nice as the one in Cameron Highlands... But the Koi fish was HUGE! Seriously huge...i've never seen such huge fishes in my life before...
The Koi fishes in Butterfly park were HUGE!!
Okay, they don't look so huge in this picture, but they were seriously huge in real.










Next, we went to Orchid Park and Hibiscus park. It was so so so hot. I had to apply sun block wherever i go and Ahilah was like "Do you need to??" Hahaha... Hey, i get sun burned easily...
The flowers were nice. The nicest part is that we got ourselves some souvenirs from there. Hehe...we plucked the branches of the hibiscus flowers so that Ahilah's mum can replant them at her house! It was really hot in Orchid park, but luckily i was fully prepared. I had an umbrella, caps, hand fan, sun block for face and body, and even sunblock for lips!! This time around, i want to make sure i wont get sun burn again!



Water lily in the Orchid park. Ahilah took this beside the pond and i was so afraid she would fall into the algae filled pond!! Thank god she didn't!

Then we went to the Planetarium, and we had to walked for some distance to get there. It was really fun at first but when the kids started to come in, it was really out of control. They were shouting and running around and we decided to go into the Theater to have some quiet time. The theater was really nice, especially the part where it was pitch black and all we could see was the starts and the planets... So calming and peaceful..



Looking through the telescope at the Planetarium. I can't remember what i saw though.








Then we walked back to KL sentral and took a train to Petaling Street to have our lunch. It was a mistake to go there. Packed like sardines and we had to squeze into the street just to get to a restaurant to eat. But i got myself some delicious egg tart and Siew Pau... Yum yum..
I felt like we've shed a few kilos because we walked so so far!!

By the time i got home, i was so freaking tired. But i had always wanted to do something like this, only i didnt have the chance to do so. It was really exciting and i hope to do it again. But of course, not in KL. Somewhere else, far away from home....
