Hatchday Celebration @ Rainforest Wild Asia w Mx

 a case of same same but different... found out that the elevated walkway at Rainforest Wild Asia that mx had been telling me about for the last 2 weeks wasnt the Mandai Boardwalk that i had in mind only after i had alighted from the shuttle bus... 😅😅😅

since i was early, i decided to walk the 800m between the two places upon seeing the directory signages... surprise oh surprise #1> no more shelter after only about 100m into the walk... 

Let's practice positive thinking:

got to clock steps

received a good dose of vitamin D

a chance to see if my new make-up fixer works > It did!

surprise oh surprise #2 > the pathway was blocked off for construction about halfway through?!?!?! heng the road next to it had NO traffic... 

it took me a long while to realise that i was the only person walking along this stretch not because it was at 4pm in the afternoon but because this road / pathway may not be opened yet?!?!?!?!... 

the good news was i completed the walk and reached where i should be at, though a little late... it would be worse if i had to walk back right?!?!?! 😂😂😂

Finally in Rainforest Wild Asia

Spotted a Bambi !!!

so exciting.... it came so near to the edge of the boardwalk!!! 

reminded me of the 毛毛 feel of the deer's antlers in Nara

no entry sign for us into the deer's territory but free for the deer to exit and come join us on the boardwalk, though none came... =S 

mx looked so cute in her ranger hat... 😊

yup yup... to exploring more places together... 😍😍😍

not as scary as i thought it would be... it's like a prelude to bungy jump... the freefall part seemed to last less than 5m followed by a controlled drop for the remaining height?!?!?!... 

so structured is the management that this is a one-way 'street' and cannot bo-ing bo-ing on the net... 

你看我  我看你

a food chain in action : tiger ← dhole ← bird ← caterpillar on the tree?!?!?

massive saltwater crocodile spotted!!! 

this interior was inspired by the Mulu Caves in Sarawak... reminded me of Sung Got Cave @ Halong Bay

Welcoming us into Cavern Restaurant

 pasta & drinks in angry glasses for dinner... 😂😂😂

Brulee Oolong Cheesecake !!!... interesting combination of 3 things; creme buelee + oolong tea + cheesecake, that i like... 

Thanks Mx for the hatchday meal & experience!!! 

To more experiences & places together!!! 😍😍😍

Hatchday Celebration w Claire

好霸气 我喜欢!... wahahahaa...

first stop : Lunch @ Ocean Restaurant that came with a spectacular view...😍😍😍

we ordered the 4-course lunch which dont know why became a 8-dish set that made us go 我很饱 很饱了!!!

Round 2 @ Make by GINLEE, New Bahru

Claire had signed us up for The Make Pleat Bag Experience

so fun so fun!!! 

the designer who came up with this idea of pleating fabrics with cardboards is so creative & innovative!!! i was a 好奇宝宝 and asked so many questions!!! 😂😂😂 

the artsy joy was in the mixing and matching of all the colours; the fabrics for the bag, the cord, the rubber tubing & the eyelets... 

i prefer mine sling while Claire prefers hers over the shoulder... 

topped up for a charm to go along!!! 

another round of mix & match.... 

even the packaging is creative with the cord of the bag as the handle of the paper box carrier too.

Thanks Claire for this crafty hatchday experience!!! 😍😍😍

2x trio in JB

< PAM Play From JB >

gotten halloween nails + enjoyed shiok shiok 1.5 hours massage between yummy brunch @ Uncle 5 and dinner @ HDL... 

HDL is so so so much more affordable at 50% of what it would have cost back home...  

< JB on Perfect 10 >

since couldnt take hatchday off, i took it on the day after to make it into a long hatchday weekend 😍😍😍

plans just fall into place when mab wanted a kaki for a weekday 'Play & Shop' date in JB... i believed in the more the merrier so jio this one, jio that one... in the end, only cy could afford a day of leave to accompany us... 😅😅😅

our play date started @ KotaJail

brunch at this cafe that we spotted within the compound... yummy but ex... a cup of latte was @ 22myr!!!

there was limited access, seemed like only half the compound is open with a florist store opened in one of the emptied prison cells... the whole place was clean and original and bare... 

v

we skipped the gallery for future visit when it is more worth it bah... 

Floor is Lava @ Twinkle Square, Eco Palladium... paid 30myr each for 25 minutes of hopping on blue & green squares and AVOIDING the red squares!!! 

Super Fun!!! i dont mind this kind of cardio often...  

CUTE CLICKERY KEYBOARD @ KEEBS PROJECT... the main reason why Mab set foot into JB!!! 

mab bought the stylish Little Prince set while i like the set with my candy icon... 😍😍😍

mab also bought these for our xmas exchange but she gonna make it blind-box style... i want the 招财猫!!! 🙏🙏🙏

headed over to Bangkok Spa for an hour of shiok shiok massage and i found my new favourite masseur > #20... 😍😍😍

super yummy dinner @ 阿一鸭皇阁 at $154myr (S$47) before heading back home...
