Assalammu'alaikum family, friends and readers!!
This is very late, I know.. And I am sorry for my extreme fully packed week! I had fun though, and I hope you had your fun too.
Second time flying with Mr Husband last weekend, and this time to KL. We took Air Asia again, so we landed in LCCT. Not much excitement there. Next time I fly to KL, it will be via Jetstar so we land in KLIA. Many reasons why I hated LCCT but oh well..
So ya.. We took a 10.30am flight from Singapore to KL-LCCT. It is just an hour flight. Journey was smooth without any hiccups. We then took the KL Transit Bus to Salak Tinggi and changed took the train to KL Sentral. The journey took between 20-40min or so..
Then we had to walk to the other station to take the Monorel to Bukit Bintang, and walk about 5minutes to our hotel.
We alighted the station, it was 1ish, still early, so we decided to take a walk around Lot 10, to see what they have before.. Hell let loose. So get ready...
We reached the hotel at about 2ish pm. Just about time to check in, however, our room wasnt ready, and was told to walk around and give them time about 1-2hrs. Being the nicest laid back tourist, we agreed, and smile away, pretty sure our room would be ready after a good walk around the area.
We walked all the way to Pavillion and got our movie ticket to watch KL Gangster 2. We support you Syamsul Yusof! We grabbed our lunch at Subway and is already dead tired by the time we started walking back to the hotel.
We came back slightly after 4pm. Guess what? The room is still NOT ready. I was keeping calm and distracted myself to ask the concierge about chauffeur service to Sepang International Circuit to watch MotoGP. We got a taxi deal for RM300 with the driver waiting for us to and fro the hotel. Then I started losing my patience when noone took any initiative to expedite our check-in, and especially so after I asked 3 times to that lady about my room and when it will be ready.. Guess what she did?
She called the service lady in a very lazy tone, "Kak, nak tanye room 1007 masih kotor ke?" (translates: "Sis, just asking, is room 1007 still dirty?") Then she continued after the receiver replied with, "Oh takde ape, guest ni tanya je.. tkpe la, da siap nanti call ye?" (translates: "oh nothing, this guest is asking, call me when it is ready ok?") Tell me, can I slap her already?
She then told me expressionlessly, "it is not ready". I turned around, face as black as the burnt kettle's bottom and told my husband I had enough of the room not being ready. Timecheck: 1702hrs!
I started ranting to the air, complaining about how long I had to wait in a 3.5star hotel. And my ranting didn't stop until a man in a suit walked passed, after which a gentleman approached my husband, "Sir, your original room was still not ready, so we upgraded your room to premium deluxe, please enjoy your day."
That man in suit, I suspect was the manager or someone of equivalent if not more in power. And so our room was upgraded. THANK GOD for the complimentary service! I deserve that upgrade for waiting 3hours or more to check in!
Our door key didnt work, the service man was great enough to help call the manager, which solve the problem in minutes. GOOD JOB!
We took a short rest, before we hit out for our movie date and dinner! The movie was awesome! And a cuppa hot milo sums up my first day at KL on 12th October 2013 (Saturday).
We woke up bright and smiley ready for breakfast then to wait for our driver to head down to Sepang! Long day ahead!
Dani Pedrosa hit the the podium, along with Marques and Lorenzo. Rossi falls 4th followed by Bautista.
I am happy that Rossi didnt win. Haha.
We hit it back to the hotel tired and hungry. Still, we managed to walk to KLCC, yes! By foot!! We bought lotsa munchies! Auntie Anne's specialty Cinnamon Sugar, and premium Caramel Almond. Then we bought Durian Puffs, and not forgetting, Garrett Popcorn!
We walked to the Indian food stall for dinner. And walked our tired feet back to the hotel all ready to just rot!
Sunday did not much justice, I dragged myself to accept that this is our last night here in KL. Oh how can it be??
Monday came, dragged all over the room to pack and make sure we didnt leave anything behind, took our breakfast, laze for a bit. Good show on TV, so we lay there like hippos watching crocodiles swim pass.. *urgh, ok side tracked!*
We decide to walk around Berjaya Times Square after we checked out as our flight home was at 1720hrs. And so we walked, and FINALLY!! We found husband's most desired LUNCH! Haha! We had our lunch at KENNY ROGERS ROASTERS. Free Wi-fi! hehe.. I managed to grab two books at Borders, I seriously think I should have grabbed those 3 magazines in Kinokuniya at KLCC!
Soon husband's ankle had enough, and so we took the Monorel to KL Sentral, then took the KL Transit back to Salak Tinggi, then bus to LCCT. Gosh.. I couldnt swear enough about "should have taken Jetstar so we land in KLIA instead".
Anyways, we spend a quick 3minutes on the massage chair before we took our flight home. And oh oh!!! We... no I ate waffles at LCCT! And that is the only good thing in LCCT. Hahaha..
And then we are back home, back to reality. Lots and lots of laundry to catch up with! Urgh... And our beloved 2-Tee the hamster! She had a great time by herself, she was on her wheel when we got home, then she looked at us, and sprinted into her hideout. Only coming out to beg me for her green leaves. Cuteness lil pet we have!
And did you know? I took 2 days to write this? Gosh! I shall post some photos later on, or maybe not. Check out my facebook for the photos la. It is everywhere, and can't you tell? I am becoming more lazy than ever nowadays! haha..
Except for my business... THAT I have to keep tidy and professional, and it is NOT an option. :p
Shall blog about my business in another entry.
And oh! it is FRIDAY already! Have a great weekend all of you!
XOXO
