Legoland Malaysia (Part 2)

After lunch, we proceeded to the LEGO Kingdom which for me is the most visually and sensory-appealing area in the park. Fiddler music and trumpets create the mood of being in a different place. And the noise of the blacksmith’s hammer against the anvil added to the drama. Ashrie did the Royal Joust here and guess what? The three of us took on another roller coaster ride. It’s The Dragon Apprentice, and this time Ashrie enjoyed it. Having gone through Project X, I think this was peanuts for her.

And the last roller coaster ride, which I almost did not take but did anyway due to insistent family demand, was The Dragon. I sat at the end and was silent the whole time. I find it awkward to shout and revel after the ride because I’m not together with any friend or family member, so I just held tight to my seat and enjoyed the ride, quietly.

To rate the experience, I still find Project X to be scarier than The Dragon. The latter has multiple seating which makes you feel secured although it plunges down into darkness at the beginning of the ride. It feels like were flying, fast and furiously! It glides smoothly and the ride was finished before you know it. While on Project X, it’s just this 4-seater carriage that slowly carries you up then plunges you all the way down then suddenly up again and slowly zigzags its way, dragging you to the to the very end. You feel very vulnerable and uncomfortable. It's like you’re being towed by a newbie driver. Whew!

 As I said in my previous entry, there were not many people when we visited and to do one activity, we just need to wait for 2-3 persons (the most) who came ahead of us, but most of the time, the rides were just there waiting for us. There was even an instance like when we took on the Observation Tower where only the three of us plus the operator were on board! It was indeed a special moment.

Ashrie and I did the Kid Power Tower, which was supposed to go down when you release the rope. Well, as the others went up and down the tower, ours got stuck after we pulled it up to the maximum and we were on top until the time has gone up. Fail!

And finally before we went to the Water Park, we did the Dino Island Water Slide. It's basically a boat ride which slides off a waterfall in the end. Free showers in the finale!

At 3 PM we decided to go to the Water Park. I think It's just about 10 minutes when the management decided to close the Water Park because of the impending thunderstorm. True enough, a few minutes later the rain starts pouring - to the dismay of the excited patrons but to the undeniable smiles in the eyes of the lifeguards (one even shouted in glee) once the pools were closed. Good thing, we were done with the main park because they had to close some attractions there as well and great that Ashrie had a dip in the play pool even for a little while.

What can you do in a theme park while it's raining? Eat! So we did. We also bought Wi-Fi tickets so that we can check on Baby Lia back home.

After the rain, it's almost five and we headed back to the main park. We bought a few things at the shops, and after an hour, it was time to head home.

Our reliable bus service was already parked outside the park when we reached there. It took another two hours going back to where it all started, the Singapore Flyer.

Will we go back to Legoland Malaysia? Definitely, and in that time, we will be with Lia.
