Our KL trip over the weekend was quite a tiring one.. and actually below my expectation. I had thought i would really enjoy myself, but i didn't.. It was still a good trip, just that i didn't enjoy it as much as i thought i would.
Firstly, the free apartment that we stayed at was lousy. There were renovation works everywhere, so it was super dusty. The renovation works also made it really troublesome to get in and out of the building. Plus, the room isn't anything fantastic. It's like an old 3 room HDB flat with only one toilet. We went with K's auntie and her colleague, so 4 of us had to share one toilet. In addition, the bed and pillows were not comfortable at all. On the first night, i didn't sleep well cause K turned the air con to 18 degrees and the fan to maximum, so i nearly froze to death.. = ) Then on the second night, i also didn't sleep well because of the super lousy pillow. Plus, i think i missed Bria..
Secondly, the 2 meals that i had been longing SOOO much for were disappointing. My favourite Korean restaurant didn't serve pancakes and potatoes for their side dishes anymore, and the "high quality" Japanese buffet wasn't all that nice after all. Although i gobbled down lots of salmon sashimi, cod fish, coconut juice and lots of Haagen Daz ice cream! Ironically, the best food i had were those road side stalls' wanton mee and our lunch at this Cantonese restaurant just before we left KL..
Our delicious lunch before we left KL (clockwise):
And lastly, I wanted very much to go for massage and pedicure. But we ended up only doing foot massage. Cause K's auntie wanted to go property viewing. K's uncle and other auntie both bought a condo unit at Pavilion, and so the motivation for his auntie to go property viewing. We did see some rather nice units though.. and I was actually very tempted to buy. It's so cheap! S$800K can buy a super big and nice 3-bedroom condo smack in the middle of KL city! That's about the same price for a 5 bedroom HDB flat in Redhill.. Sigh.. Things in Singapore are so expensive! So anyway, because of all these property viewing, we didn't have any time left for my pedicure.
So overall, it was quite a disappointing trip. Don't think i will be going back to KL anytime soon! Now looking forward to my Penang trip with the MX5 guys in 2 weeks time!!
One of the condominiums we saw. This one has a individual swimming pool for each unit. Each apartment average about RM$3 - 4 Million.. VERY NICE!!
