3D/2N Trip to KK ~ Day 2 (Part 2)

Thanks for keep on reading ya...On that night of 22/12/11, hubby brought us to Perdana Park to see the musical fountain. It was raining, but we still enjoyed our moments there.

Lovely Christmas deco @ the entrance

Raining & very cold

Behind us is the musical fountain

After that, hubby suggested to watch a movie at Suria Sabah. Unfortunately, our car's brake isn't functioning very well. So, we decided just to go shopping at Centre Point KK, which is a walking distance from our hotel. We had our dinner at McDonald. I had Beef Prosperity Burger. I like it but quite spicy for me.

What a surprised! I met my friend cum my ex colleague, Laura. We still keep in touch through Facebook, but we haven't meet each other since 2003 I guess.

We went back to hotel around 10 pm and ZZZzzz

3D/2N Trip To KK ~ Day 2 (Part 1)

The next morning (22/12/11), we had our breakfast at The Square of Novotel. I prefer this hotel than any other hotel in 1Borneo area because variety of food selection for breakfast. Buffet style but lots of yummy thingy!

My heavy breakfast :P

After breakfast, we checked out from the hotel and went for city tour. We visited Sabah Museum. It was my second visit since 1991! What a long time, huh? Our kids are very excited because it was their first visit. Unfortunately we are not allowed to take photos inside the museum.

By the way, we saw an artist outside the museum. We asked him to sketch a photo for our kids but until our visit end, he haven't done yet! We are so disappointed. He said too many photos to sketch, but why he approached us in the first place?

Anyway, here are some of our photos outside the museum.

After that, we checked in to Imperial Hotel and then had our lunch at Food Court, Centre Point. Hubby accompanied our kids to play games and I went back to hotel to get some rest. I'll meet my another friend, later that evening.

Met my friend, Debbie at Starbucks Warisan Square. Our last met was in 1st Jan, 2011.

3D/2N Trip To KK ~ Day 1

I went to Kota Kinabalu (KK) last 21st Dec, 2011 with hubby and kids. We supposed to go earlier but hubby is so busy with school thingy even though it was school holidays! Anyway, he promised we will have fun in KK and we did! Thanks hubby :)

On the way to KK (21/12/11), we stopped by at Kipandi Butterfly Park. It was located on Tambunan-Penampang Road. The fees are RM10 per adult and no charge for my kids.

We arrived at Novotel, 1Borneo around 2.30pm. I was very tired and took a few minutes nap. I had appointment with my friend, Jenny later that evening.

While hubby took care of our kids, I went out to meet Jenny. We went shopping for some Christmas dresses at Niichi, 1Borneo. Lots of sale and I love all the dresses! I bought 2 dresses (Thanks again hubby for the $, I know you'll view my blog later).

Then, Jenny brought me to Kenny Rogers Roasters. Thanks for the treat!

Wonderful Weekend in KK

I went to Kota Kinabalu (KK) with my hubby and kids last week (25th Mac-27th Mac, 2011). Actually, my hubby got something urgent to do in KK. Seems it was on weekend, he decided to bring us together.

We departed from Keningau around 1.00pm and arrived KK at 3.30pm. We had our late lunch at Kopitiam 1 Malaysia in Putatan. I don't have appetite as I was too tired. We checked into Novotel in 1Borneo and have some rest. I was supposed to meet my ex colleague, my BFF Jenny but then we decided to meet on the next day.

As usual, my hubby will accompany our kids to Boo-boo Land and I will do my own shopping. After one hour, we went to Home's Cafe for dinner. Seems it was Friday, still on Lent Season, we only have seafood as our meals.

We went back to hotel around 10.00pm. After changing our clothes, we went back to 1B, looking for a Gintell massage chair..ha..ha..All of us need a body massage! Then, we went to 24hrs Orange outlet to buy some food/drinks.

The next morning, I woke up at 7.00am while my hubby and kids are still sleeping. I had appointment with my BFF Jenny at 8.00am. Of course, the mall is not open yet till 10.00am. So, we just have some chats at the McDonald outlet. Luckily it was opened at 9.00am. Thanks for the treat Jenny, I really enjoyed my breakfast.

Later in the afternoon, we checked out from Novotel. Then proceed to town and check into another hotel, Imperial. I tried to sleep as I had another appointment with my another BFFs later in the evening.

I went out with my BFF Olivia and her sister, Estella. Debbie supposed to join us but she couldn't make it. We went to Secret Recipe for late lunch, have some chats and picture session of course! Then, we went to CPS Mall, just few walks from the hotel. My first intention is to claim my membership card from the Popular Bookstore. Finally, I got my Fallen novel too.

After window shopping, we went for 1 hour karaoke. Thanks for the treat Olivia and thanks to my hubby too. He's very sporting and allow me to join them while he's taking care of our kids. Biasalah, asal dapat main games, my kids dah puas hati! After karaoke, we went upstair to watch the bowling tournament at CPS Bowl. After saying goodbye to my BFFs, we brought the kids for dinner and back to hotel.

On our last day, we went for complimentary breakfast at the hotel. While waiting for the Big Apple Donuts & Coffee outlet to be opened at 10.30am, my kids and I just stayed at the room while hubby went out for his own shopping.

Before going back to Keningau, we went to visit my younger sister and her family. Then, we went to Dunkin' Donuts outlet in KKIA. Well, after trying both donuts, I still prefer Big Apple :-) We also went to Papar, unfortunately my mother in law is on her way to KK too.

Thanks hubby for the trip and for the surprise gift too! I love you...What a wonderful weekend in KK! (For more picture, you may view in my Facebook)
