A second getaway in 2012....KL

Since Cheewan didn't have to work for day 3 -5 of CNY, we decided to drive up to KL for the weekend. Leaving on day 5 CNY. Traffic was smooth although we were a little worried that traffic would be bad as school holiday for Malaysia was way longer than us and definitely stretched beyond this weekend.

Reached just in time for dinner. Had a nice early dinner at Penang Cafe. Food was alright. Decent I suppose. The following day was full of shopping. Sale was great of about 20-70% discount. Could get pretty good buys. Bought some clothes. Wanted to find some for Elijah too but just couldn't find nice ones. Another great buy...bedsheets hahahaa. Guess we shop for weird things there. But shopping was good and therapeutic.

Food was the other good one. Although we didn't proceed to the outdoor foodstalls, perhaps next time, I guess we satisfied ourselves with good food still. There was this Chinese restaurant....very yummy and we ordered a pomfret...only RM$36 and it was huge. Think we could feed like 5-6 pple with that amount of food. Hhahahaha..guess we were really hungry.

The other attraction was the dessert. Guess no Malacca for us but there was this jonker street dessert...yummy cendol.....with KIDNEY BEANS!!! Yippyyy...fell in love with it and the cendol was just heavenly too. Hahahaha. Elijah fell in love with ice jelly. Tried to document his expression but failed.

He suddenly blurted out, ' Yummy! I think I can finish all!!'.
We both burst into laughter with his spontaneous expression. Tried to ask him to repeat to document in video but he refused to. Hahahhaha. It was really cute.

He loved the bathtub. Guess he always loves getaways. He almost refused to leave the hotel room.

It was really fantastic to catch up with friends in KL. Really touched that they all tried to make it for the gathering and even go to the extend of asking Bear Bear to ferry us. Aiyoh....so paiseh trouble everyone. We kind of nearly missed the opportunity..suddenly the night before we left remembered we could catch up with them. It was really nice..went to a mall called Empire shopping centre...had lunch with the whole group at Din Tai Feng. Yummy...thanks ladies. Really touched!

Well, nothing beats some nice photos to end this post.
