and this year, we spent it a little differently. :)
We watched Valentines Day on the eve/Valentines day
and the first day of CNY watching Percy Jackson the the lightning thief.
Second day of CNY involved frantic packing of luggage, as he decides to surprise me with a last minute trip away from Singapore! :D
I had to decide between Desaru and Kuala Lumpur.... and I chose KL!
On a whim and fancy, we set off in the late morning drive to KL.
Grumpy's facial muscles weren't warmed up for the camera yet.
It was a smooth journey all the way to Malacca, with clear blue skies and an empty road to match.
We ran out of luck past Malacca, and we were caught in a terrible expressway jam shortly after!
Poor thing had to endure the crazy jam, and he decided to skip the expressway, and head for the little roads instead.
Many Malaysians were rushing back to KL from their respective hometown so as to get back to work on time (that's what I heard from the radio updates and the newspaper the next day.)
We were staying at a pretty urban resort off KLCC! Despite being located just off the main road, there's a quiet tranquility that we experience in the resort.
Pictures of the pool from the room :)
It was just a pity that we were semi lazy to want to swim in that pretty pool...
Great to roll around, and nice to snuggle in! :)
In barely 5 minutes in the room, and I've managed to create an awesome clutter on the counter top! Hahahhaa
Dumped phone, bag, food, coke bottle, wallets, and camera case on the table.
How convenient! *beams with pride*
"nuaing" at the sofa watching the Telly!
I seem to have lost the picture of the mega sized plama/LCD Telly, and I'm semi upset!
The panoramic room pictures that I've painstakingly taken is gone! Argh!
took this shot, before hitting the shops.
Shaky hands = blurry shots, but i like it still!
Heheh!
Grumpy face because he wanted to play with his toy in hand, not take pictures with mirror reflections. :(
A remote controlled helicopter!
Ta Dah!
(toy in hand = cooperative smile for camera -_-)
Taking pictures while checking manual.
Copter was malfunctioning.

Im a mega sucker for local food fare, so dinner for both nights - we ate out at KL's version of Newton circus!
Our dinner was Yums!
Sambal Kang Kong, Fried Oyster omelette, Seafood omelette and grilled stingray!
There was also the not so nice Ba kut teh, wanton mee that we had, but food there is delicious anyway!
Lovely! but Potent!
Sorethroat after that!
I had to attach a bigger picture just to show you exactly what I meant!
Flat and crispy!
Very unlike the gooey starchy ones that we have locally!
To load up on chicken rice balls for lunch and those famously delicious pineapple tarts!
We bought 9 boxes in total, and I nearly finished the entire box myself, and I am still loving it!
Woo hoo!
Random pictures of us, on the road.
Hahaha
That's about all from us!
Tata!
