A getaway to Genting

This getaway was planned about two months ago. I was looking forward to it. And the time was right as the boss had recovered from his surgery of his little finger. 

We arrived First World Hotel yesterday morning by a coach. It was already 10.30am and we were waiting for another friend who was supposed to check-in our room for us.

The hotel lobby..
We waited here for almost 2 hours.

Then we adjourned to the convention centre to have a look.

At the same time, we got our room key, entrance tickets and our lucky draw tickets.
We rested in our room and got ready by 5pm.

At 5.30pm, we met our upline and took a picture with her.

We had a chinese-styled dinner.
The award winning event ended at about 11pm.
 


The next day, ie today, we went to explore.
We don't see outdoor themed park anymore.
Renovation is being done.

My favorite place..
we took a picture here.

Love this beautiful new hotel.
Lots of great statues inside it.


We got ourselves a membership and slot cards for free.
Tried the slot machines but no luck..
With the membership card, we got a discount of RM2 on food.

Guess how much this plate of nasi lemak cost after the deduction.

We left Genting at 4pm. I reached my place at 7.30pm 
after the coach driver had sent the other passengers back.

Short and sweet getaway!

      Your boss needs to travel a bit to recharge and change the frequency around him. I may sound like a superstitious old lady but it is true.

      The theme park has lost its shine and popularity when compared to all the others in overseas! It is high time they upgrade to the best. Genting has too much funds and budget!

      Oh..it's a self-sponsored trip..
      I was saying that the boss didn't need me to be around the shop. He didn't go. I went with my friend.
