01-03-2019 Bong & His CNY 2019 - From KL to saying goodbye

Right after we checked in,
everyone wanted some food
and beer...
So we went straight to this
Blues & Bees
because we saw 'BEER- Buy one free one'
the moment we passed by!
The food was pretty good
and of course the beer were CHEAP!
For our dinner,
we walked pass Jalan Alor....
came to Petaling Street,
and had my favorite....
Kim Lian Kee's hokkien stir-fried noodles
(Sorry for the blurry bad pictures...)
Janne and Laija ordered fried prawns
and of course they did not like prawns that were fried with their skins,
while Helge ordered this steam octopus...
It was a bit late and not much to see
for our lovely tourists
so we just walked back to the hotel
and enjoyed ourselves with red wine....
The next day,
we had a lunch buffet appointment
at this Atmosphere 360 revolving restaurant 
at KL Tower...
We walked from Bukit Bintang to
KL Tower,
took the free shuttle VAN to the top...
and then enjoyed both
some nice food and amazing view there...
After the lovely meal,
we went one level down
to the observation deck....
From there,
you could actually read the descriptions of
some special buildings which are placed on the glass
matching with the view you are looking at...
We could even see our hotel
from KL Tower!
Since I bought the lunch buffet
from Fave,
so the vouchers also included entrance to this aquarium...
I had a 'great' time capturing
the beauty of this dog face puffer
After the lunch,
we went back immediately to the hotel for more rest...
Then it was the program for the evening....
We grabbed a grab from our hotel to KLCC,
because it was raining quite a lot...
We sent Laija, Janne and Helge
to the Twin Tower bridge visit
while we were just doing our own shopping...
And for dinner that day,
we simply just settled it at KLCC food court...
After the dinner,
we walked back from KLCC to Pavilion,
and then our hotel...
Since it was long time ago
I had used that walkway,
so I did make a small mistake (again)
somewhere near to the KLCC convention centre.
The next day,
which was also our very last day in KL,
we went to food court at Lot 10 to have our breakfast
and then for my lunch,
I had japanese meal again at Lot 10
Thanks Jui Boon and Hui for the treat!
After taking bath and freshing us up,
we had our last dinner,
a simple 5 dishes meal at
Esquire Kitchen Sungei Wang Plaza
We had our very last shopping,
then we took the taxi that we had ordered from hotel...
headed to KLIA,
and said goodbye to Malaysia....

XOXO

25-02-2019 Bong & His CNY 2019 - From Penang to Kedah, then Kedah to KL

Since we had some time
after visiting Kek Lok Si,
I decided we could also visit Penang Hill....
The cabin car took us
to the top of Penang Hill...
and when we reached there,
it was sunset time...
I guess they had this
My First Love thingy
because of the valentine...
Anyway,
we walked up to the Hindu temple
but it was under renovation...
We spent some time
enjoying the night view of Penang...
We could even see
Kek Lok Si temple
whihc was not finish decorated yet...
After spending 1 hour ++ at Penang Hill,
we took grab and went back to the hotel,
had a take away Mamak dinner,
and enjoyed the rest of the wine that we had...
The next day morning,
we went to this Asia Cafe for
vegetarian breakfast...
and then packed our stuffs,
continued the holidays
at my hometown,
Sungai Petani...
From ferry to bus,
everything went super smooth...
and I was super impressed with the new
Penang Sentral!
We spent almost a week
at my hometown....
celebrated Lajla's birthday,
Chinese New Year, etc etc...
then it was time to
travel to Kuala Lumpur....
It was our first time
taking the ETS train
from Sungai Petani to KL...
and we have learned how cold it can be in a Malaysian fast train!
From KL central,
we took monorail to Bukit Bintang,
and all went well until we reached Bukit Bintang station....
There is no elevator or lift at the station!!!!!!
Anyway,
we managed to carry our luggage...
checked in at our hotel,
Hotel Royal....

To be continued...

XOXO
