Trip to Malaysia

Usually, the trip to overseas is always the best, but this time it was the worst. Of course, we went to Malaysia (Malacca) by bus and not by plane. The bus had no games or anything for our entertainment. Luckily, we brought along our Gameboy. We took turns to play the Gameboy throughout the whole journey. Halfway through the journey, I felt a little giddy and went to sleep instead. When we had reached our destination, A'Famosa, I was overcome with giddiness and I vomitted after I alighted from the coach. Perhaps if you go to the A'Famosa Clubhouse, you might still be able to see my vomit. That was the second time I vomitted. The first time was during the bus ride to Genting, that's why I prefer taking a budget aeroplane to taking a bus.

We took a shuttle bus to our hotel, which I would never expect was a condo. The room was huge, just like my condo at home. There were even 2 twin beds and 2 queen/king-size beds. Compared to my previous trip to Taiwan, which has only 2 tiny little beds, the hotel is so much better. Yet, it was also quite cheap. Later, we went to Cowboy Town to do a little exploring. Then at 6, we went back to the clubhouse to have our buffet dinner.

After that, we went back to the Cowboy Town to watch the Carnival Show and fireworks.




That was just the first day. On the second day, we took the shuttle bus again to the Animal World Safari (mini zoo). First, we watched the elephant show. The elephants could really play basketball and soccer! (see the video clip below) Next, we went to another animal show with multi animals performing. There was a dog that could stand up and walk at the same time. Later, we went to the bird show where different kinds of birds performed different kinds of tricks. Next, we proceeded to watch another show called the wild wild west. It was a show about cowboys. After that, we took the shuttle bus back to our hotel. Well, actually, we did nothing afterwards.

Day 3, we had breakfast at Cowboy Town and buffet lunch at the clubhouse, before catching our coach back to Singapore. In case I might vomit again, I decided not to play the Gameboy and slept throughout most of the journey!

I am glad to be back to my home, at about 8 pm.
