Going to Genting...


Genting Highland is celebrating 40th Anniversary. Although I don't see any promotion going on (I guess they don't need to promote as they have a rather high booking rate), together with another 2 families of friends, we'll be heading there for a holiday.

Its been...what?... 5? 6? years since I've been there. I remember it as the boring kiddy rides theme park, zero shopping area, tasteless food courts and a big casino with lots of uncles and aunties smoking and gambling.

But they say things have changed, improved tremendously, much more exciting for all ages. For one I heard there'll be a new roller coaster, the last time I ride a real one was in Gold Coast... raining... it really hurt to have rain drops hitting on my face while going down hill at 100 km/h, I could hardly open my eyes.


I'm no sucker for these rides anymore, in fact I never was one. But my lovely wife is the daring one, during our honeymoon in Australia, she pulled me into every Q for the scariest rides she can find on the list.

Someone ever said: "Why you pay money to scare the sh*t out of yourself?" True hor...




But there'll be a new experience... the indoor sky diving. At RM50 you'll get to have a feel of how its like to hover in the air. By the time you get the hang of it...times up.


There's 2 cinema up there showing the latest movies like Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Dragon Squad, SPL, Zathura... they'll be screening it even past midnight. I know I'll sure to watch at 3 of the movies.


I'm sure we'll have a great time there.
