We booked our tickets earlier this year because this trip was
supposed to be a celebration for Ashrie's "single-daughterhood".
Apparently, Jane could not travel any more as her pregnancy became very sensitive
in the final trimester. So we rescheduled it to a later date. It's also good that Jane can enjoy the rides as well and not just look after the bags and
be a photographer.
Since my sister-in-law was here for a month
to help us, we grabbed the opportunity to be away for a day and leave Baby Lia
in her able hands.
So it's just Me&MyGirls sans Lia headed
to Legoland Malaysia. Hey, that rhymes!
We bought our coach tickets from WTS Travel. I chose them
because they have a branch in Causeway Point which is just a walking distance away from our
place. Turned out, I made a right choice because we had no problems with
regards to transport.
I think having chosen a non-peak date was
the start of the streak of good things that day. The immigration process was a
breeze, vehicular traffic was A-okay (from Singapore Flyer to Legoland Malaysia
in more or less than 2 hours was not bad at all). And to visit a theme
park that is not crowded was really delightful to say the least.
When we reached the park, it was about 11
AM, we headed to the ticket counters to pay the reschedule fee. Nobody's in
line! We went in and the park was not packed. Actually, it was unexpected and a
very pleasant surprise. I'm sure it's a different story altogether during weekends and
holidays.
We wasted no time and went on our first
ride. It was a roller coaster! We were hesitant at first but did it anyway. If we will
not try the rides then there's no sense of being there, right? It was exhilarating!
It's not just our first ride of the day but also our first time to be in a
roller coaster. Ashrie had the shock of her life and said she would never ride
the Project X ever again.
There was a photo booth at the exit (actually
almost every ride has a photo booth and there were park photographers all over
the place). We decided to buy our photo. A moment of undeniable courage and being adventurous
needs to be immortalized. Take a look, we bought this for $20 SGD but our
reactions are priceless!
Here's a video on how it's like to be on that ride:
After that extreme adventure, all the rest
seems easier and we took our time to try almost all of the rides. Jane and Ashrie took on
the Wave Racers and the Twister then Ashrie and I did a relaxing Boat Ride.
We walked through MiniLand.
Ashrie did the Junior Driving School. She even got her driver’s license there. After that, we headed for lunch.
Will we conquer the so called "Scariest Ride in Legoland Malaysia"? Will Ashrie ever ride a roller coaster again? Answers to these and more on the second leg of our Legoland Malaysia adventure.
Stay tuned for Part
Two.
