Malaysia Trip: Day 2 (Genting)
Got up at around 830am and went for breakfast at the hotel cafe... proceed back up to Genting on the skyway and by the time we reached the theme park it was already near to 11am... Bought the Outdoor Theme Park day pass at 25% discount with the coupons given... There were quite a few rides that are closed for maintenance... but I shall summarize the rides that we took:
1. SpinnerTime spent waiting: 5 minutes
Time on Ride: 2 minutes
Thrill Rating: 2 / 5
2. Space Shot
Time spent waiting: 25 minutes
Time on Ride: < 1 minute
Thrill Rating: 4 / 5
Duration of the ride is pretty short but each time can only take 12 people on board, so it accounts for the long waiting time... 1st time taking this kind of ride, so was abit anxious... Decided to take some photos while on the top of the Space Shot though, so i counted how long it will remain stationary at the top, which lasts about 10 seconds... Finally when it was time to go up, I got ready my Digicam for the shot... Juz (and really juz) managed to snap two pics before the Space Shot descend at great velocity... However it did not go all the way down at the 1st attempt, so would give it a 4 out of 5...
3. Grand Prix Fun Kart
Time spent waiting: 40 minutes
Time on Ride: 5 ~ 8 minutes
Thrill Rating: 2.5 / 5
4. Flying Dragon
Time spent waiting: 15 minutes
Time on Ride: < 2 minutes
Thrill Rating: 2.5 / 5
5. Monorail
Time spent waiting: 70 minutes
Time on Ride: 25 minutes
Thrill Rating: 0 / 5
6. Flying Coaster
Time spent waiting: 15 minutes
Time on Ride: 2 ~ 3 minutes
Thrill Rating: 4.5 / 5
This is the signature attraction of the Theme Park, and I think it really live up to its name, i.e. you really feel like you are flying... Although had to pay RM10 for the ride, I think its value for money... Thought gonna miss this as it was closed for maintenance in the morning... Anyway, as usual, queue up for the ride and, when it was our turn, we were already in position but were hold back for quite some time... think the previous person who has taken the ride had dropped his specs... Finally, we were on our way and it was really a thrill, twisting 360 degree in mid air... Although I was also abit concern about the stuff in my pouch would drop out during the ride...
7. CycloneTime spent waiting: 20minutes
Time on Ride: 2 ~ 3 minutes
Thrill Rating: 3 / 5
Finally, this was our last ride of the day... Although we had wanted to queue for this in the morning but was told it would be closed for a while... Anyway finally get to queue at a time when the queue is not so long... By this time we were probably well-trained for this kind of ride, especially after the last one... Indeed this was considered a small case compared to the last...
By the time, we were done at the Theme Park, it was dinner time and we headed down to Hotel Resort Cafe for dinner... Dinner was also buffet, but this time there was less variety, in terms of food and fruits... However there were a lot of different kueh on offer...
After dinner, went jalan jalan again at First World Plaza... Wanted to go to Snow World, but cant take photos inside, so dun see the point of going... Then wanted to try que bowling but the staff said it was no more liao... Finally went into the bowling alley, took a seat and watch others play...Also went into the casino to take a look... The place was so hi-tech that even placing the bets can be done through PC terminals; there was still those conventional betting tables though, playing games like baccarat, roulette etc... Then, for the fun of it, slotted RM10 into one of the jackpot machines and started playing... Managed to win RM19.70 in total (lolz)... Went to the cashier to collect my winnings, and found that everyone was collecting in hundreds or more (hahaha)...
After coming out of the casino, went to KFC for a drink and rest before taking the Cable Car down to Awana Skyway and head back to hotel.Labels: vacation
