genting-bukit tinggi pt. 1

and so, we left for genting on friday noon with our bunch of crazy friends. 6 people in a car, windy roads, wind in our hair, and i ended up at one moment slapped across the back seat, by-passing 3 people, from right side of the car to the left. hah, i dont understand why either. the weather was extremely positive, blue skies, white fluffy clouds, and the pictures turned out superb!

a few photos from the first day; was having a hell lot of fun at the outdoor theme park the whole day so pictures were scarce. besides, who would be courageous enough to flash out a dslr while on an adrenaline pumping double-loop roller coaster; spinner; and heart-wrenching space shot?




everytime at genting theme park feels like the first, every.single.time.





but this time, i was brave enough to try out the space shot, accompanied by him and one of our friends. it was a ride in which it shoots you up to a i-duno-how-many-storeys'-high height, and then drop you ALL the way down and then shoots halfway up again. my butt was never a second in contact with the seat, and my heart was making its way up my throat. despite me curling up my toes and grabbing on to the railings with my dear life throughout the approximately 2 minutes ride, it was an extraordinary experience, and i would definitely go on it again!

too bad i didnt document any of the glorious episode! space shot is the tower to the rightest in the picture below, yes, taller than the multi-coloured hotel building!



when another group of our friends finally came up in the evening, we had dinner at a hainanese restaurant. their executive club sandwich cost a bomb, but it was delish! and the deco was pretty cool, with mahjong sets, chinese chess sets, plates and cups displayed on its walls.



then it was off for a stroll in the cold windy night to burn off the calories. and some crazy photo taking of course, of which many of the photos were too embarrassing to be posted here ><



do wait for part 2 :)
