A trip to Legoland Malaysia

Yes..Malaysia Legoland has finally open. So, I was excited to pay it a visit because I been to the original Legoland in Billund, Denmark a few years back and I am eager to see how this one look like. When my sister asked whether I will be in KL on that particular date..I apa lagi, ON!

We left KL on Friday after lunch so we arrived in JB around 530PM. Luckily it was not that difficult to find the hotel where we stayed and nasib baik, the place also very nice. Siap ader breakfast and dekat dengan banyak tempat makan and a mall. So, I have nothing to complaint. We went to Legoland on Sunday as we decided to go to Singapore & spend the whole day there, just jalan2 and do some shopping.

It took around 45minute drive to Legoland from where we stay. Tengok jer the sign, my niece already very excited. We arrived just 10 minute before the opening time. We got our ticket (RM110 for children w/o water park & RM140 for adult, w/o water park). Very expensive if you ask me. 

 It was a Sunday so mmg assume akan banyak org. Tapi since we came very early, the crowd was not so bad.

 Tempat ticket pun masih kosong.

I guess ni memang singature pintu gerbang Legoland because the one in Billund also look like this. As you enter the gate, you will pass the gift/Lego shop and then you will see the miniature city. Kat bawah ni...err..apa entah building ni, x ingat plak.

 Then there this mosque in Terengganu (also I x ingat exact name)..sorry yer..kena la you all google.

 And Putrajaya pun ader

 Ni tasik kat Putrajaya tu..where normally people go for the boat cruise

 Shop lots near Petaling Street

 This one is the only KTM station (train station)

 Of course, must have..The Twin Tower

 This is Bangunan Sultan Abdul Samad (the court house yang lama)

 KL Tower

 This is KL SEntral and banyak lagi. The miniature city (Mini City) also ader some of the major attraction from various Asian countries like Thailand, Indonesia, Myanmmar, Singapore and Vietnam.

Since we were there very early, the crowd is just OK..so we decided to go for the rides before orang memenuhi the place. We go from one ride to another and we were so happy that the queue ...almost takder. Heheheh...so since some ride x boleh bawa camera, I can't displayed it here ya. Sorry..I guess you kena pergi sane to see it. Heehh...yang I x naik I can post here though...

 First ride I think is this...again, I forgot what it is called but it is a dragon roller coaster. My nephew love it so much that he requested that we went for a second round. Well, since there are not much of people, why not...hehe

 Then we're off to Imagination (different area have different name it seem)..Nothing much here (at least for me)..but we did naik the replica of the Taming Sari rotating ride (kat Melaka) just because we wanted some ac!! Hahah..walaupun awal pagi, it is still very humid! Can't imagine bila dah tengahari..I'll be roasted!

 All smiling because of the ac..hehe

 Lepas tu we did went for a few other ride and I think we went to this part of the park bila dah nak balik. This ride I knew I do not want to be a part off because I went to similar ride in Sunway Lagoon with a friend and we end up soaking wet! So, no more ....this time, I jadi photographer jer.

 Tengok cam ok jer kan..

 Masa naik slow giler..

 Bila turun laju and then...BASAH!!! Hahaha...

 Then we stop by a few ride for kiddy and I think lps tu we went here. Adventure of the Pharaoh..something cam tu la. Kira cam main laser tag. Syiok juga main ni..heheh

 Ni bagi yang malas nak stay jauh you can stay here tapi mlm2 bosan giler la because this place it totally out of no where! Hahah..tempat makan pun xder.

So, that conclude our trip to Legoland. I know my blog don't tell so much about the whole theme park but I hope it will manage to give a glimpse of the place. Kalau nak tau detail, siler2 la google the website or best lagi, go there! But I must say, for a small part, this is a very expensive one. I mean, we were there literally for 1 hour and that show ...Legoland Malaysia is not so big.

Sight seeing on Boxing Day

Boxing Day is normally spend by inviting friends and relative to your house for lunch (well..at least here). The thing is, you can't simply appear at someone's house without being invited even though that someone is your own parent. Suddenly inviting yourself to someone's house is consider as being rude. This is normally practice by my in law where they will invite us, hubby's cousin and uncle to their home for lunch. But last year,  we decided to spend Boxing Day by showing my family some of the nearest town to our place.

Armed with 2 cars, our first destination is the Voergaard Castle, which is quite near our place. It is famous for its terrifying tales of the greedy Ingeborg Skeel (merciless Lady if the Manor), who murdered the castle's master builder by shoving him into the moat. It is believes that her soul still haunts Voergaard Slot to this day.

 Main entrance to the castle's compound. The castle is surrounded by man made lake but at this time, it was frozen. Actually, the castle do open for public but as we were there the day after Christmas, it was closed to public.

One for the memory..

 Then we're off to a town call Dronninglund and stop by at Dronninglund Castle. I wanted to show my parent and sister the castle where we had our wedding's reception. But unfortunately, we were unable to go in without having reservation. There are a few rooms inside the castle and we had our wedding in the Blue Room, which we were lucky to get because someone cancel their booking on it.

 Every castle has their own church and of course, that will mean, there will be cemetery just besides it.

 Well, I can't help but take a picture in front of the castle, almost 6 years after our wedding.

Next, we're off to Saeby, a city near the sea (well, there are many city situated just near the sea shore here and this is just one of it). And that was the first time I actually drove by myself. Feel pretty weird as here they drove on the left side of the road.

 The city was pretty deserted because it is both a public holiday and it is also very cold. Hehhe..

 During the summer, you can find lots of small boat and also medium to huge yatch park here. And they come from various country too.

 It's quite nice to be there when not much of people around.

 There are some pretty cool houses and I believe they have the perfect view of the sea. But the price of houses around this area is bloody damn expensive.

 The bridge connect you to the beach.

 Peking duck..

 The beach is very peaceful...

 And the sea is calm..

 Mom go searching for seashell

 The beach is full of seashell of all kind..

 And mom still searching for shell..hahaha

After like 40 minutes playing and walking at the beach, I guess it's time to go home.

 Oh..almost forgot. Before we went to Saeby, we make a stop over at Skagen. This city is Denmark northernmost city. It is Denmark's main fishing port and also has a thriving tourist industry.


 Here's one for the walk of fame..hehe

 Very scenic view

 I love this picture..macam kat poskad pulak

 I pun nak juga..heheh

 The day look very sunny but it was bloody cold!!!

It is a breath taking view despite the coldness and the strong wind.

White Christmas 2012

Last year Christmas as I have mentioned (for those that read my blog la kan), my parents and sister, together with the kids came to Denmark to celebrate it with us. People were wondering why on earth they want to come to Dk during winter!!! FYI, Danish winter is also known as one of the extreme one. Only if you are lucky that you will experience a mild winter with little bit or no snow at all. 

Well, obviously they want to experience Christmas here and not that they have any other choice because Christmas fall during winter right?? My nephews and especially niece, were damn excited with the notion that they will get to se real SNOW! Not the one that they seen in i-City or Bukit Cerakah but REAL snow. So, with much anticipation, we just can't stop thinking about it and bugging their mum on how would it feel like. 

Well, they want snow and snow they get! 

 Luckily we have an extra garage. Nak masuk garage satu ni mmg x boleh lgsg. One day my front yard is clear, the next penuh dgn snow smp nak reach bumbung.

 Even the bird need to eat during winter so we normally hang some bird food on our magnolia tree. Kasihan burung2 xder makanan pasal pokok mun smua xder daun & buah.

I cant enter our function room from this door as well pasal too much of snow.

 We can only enter the barn from the side door, which nasib baik wujud side door. But in fact the barn has many entrance.

 I have experienced driving masa snow lebat cam ne & I don't like it.

Icicles on our room..Once it melt, my WORD..mmg kotor compound. The downside of snow..it look clean because it's white but when it melt, it is very messy & wet.

 Thank God we live in a countryside where having a tractor is very common. It is very useful during winter especially when the snow is this much. Without this tractor, we might be trapped for days at home because no car can go through snow that thick.

 While hubby clear our driveway, I just stand there and watch. Hahah..

Now our driveway is more or less passable. See our trash can, almost tenggelam. Hahah...

 As soon as they arrived at micasa, trus kluar main. They are all in a hurry to go out and play. Bila lagi kan. All the tiredness of having to ride for 5hrs on a train, lesap bila tengok snow this much.

Siap bawa baldi lagi si kecik ni. Hhahaha...

 Just before Christmas, we experienced a snow storm. So, I brought them outside so they can feel how it is.

 Well, besides the coolness, they do have lots of fun.

Even my mum come out & play! Hahha..

 Masa ni mmg kuat giler the snow and ribut so masa untuk masuk dlm umah and get cosy with a warm hot chocolate/coffee/tea while chit chating with my parent.

 Our Christmas tree can't take the storm and fall down. This year we need to  get a new one to put outside. Hahahah...

 My sis said my dad look like this eskimo man. My dad can't stand the cold unlike my mum who enjoy it very much.

 Told you right...she enjoy it very much. Hahah.. siap guna sarung okkkk!! Steady mum!!

 The kids made this snowman ..

Now, she decent a bit because this a day before Christmas and we were going to the church. So, jangan ingat my mum guna sarung jer tau. She also know how to dress up to the occasion. :)

So, that was a great experience for them all. The kids really enjoy themselves despite the cold. So does my parent. They will have lots of story to tell when they get back. It is nice to have them around. At least umah x sunyi sgt with just the two of us. Tapi my dad xnak datang masa winter again. Hahah... x dapat go sight seeing he said, which is true. Till next time...
