Although it was rather tough lugging two luggages and a toddler along on a flight-and-drive trip, we enjoyed ourselves tremendously. We stayed at the Theme Park Hotel which is just a stone's throw away from the outdoor amusement park. The indoor amusement park is slightly further, but within walking distance at the First World Hotel.
We celebrated our anniversary dinner at an authentic Vietnamese restaurant at the indoor amusement park. Hubby and I ordered minced prawn on sugar cane, Vietnamese fried rice wrapped in lotus leaves and grilled chicken lime leaves with fried sticky rice. Though it wasn't a candle-lit dinner, the ambience was quite romantic as we were seated by the man-made canal and watched people ride past in the gondola, just like the ones in Venice. Hmm...I could actually imagine myself in Venice.
But the best part of the vacation, apart from the cool weather, must be at the amusement parks where our girl has had a whale of a time trying out the kiddie rides like the Ribena Teacup, Flying Elephant, Carousel, Ferris Wheel and of course, the canal ride in the gondola.
Watching our angel shrieked in delight while having fun is such a blessing that no words can describe and no money can buy. Although the afternoon downpour somewhat dampened our joy as we could not continue the fun at the outdoor park, the experience of having fun as a family is priceless.
Although the weather at Genting was cool and even cold in the night, our hearts were warm and fuzzy as this is our first family vacation and it bonds us even closer.
