Knowing my strengths

In conversation with mommie dearest....

Joey:"Mommie, I'm special!"

Mommie:"What's so special about you?"

Joey:"I can talk non-stop. No one in the class can talk non-stop like me. When i forget one word, i can come out with many more words!"

Kota Kinabalu

We've returned from our trip to Kota Kinabalu in Sabah, East Malaysia.

The company was excellent, we had plenty of good fun and the hotel was OH-SO-GOOD!

Day 1 - Arrived at Shangri-la Tanjung Aru Resort at 11.30pm. The check-in was a breeze and we were pleased that the hotel has put Jamie's baby cot in the room prior to our arrival. The room was spacious and extremely comfortable. Didn't take us long to drift into dreamland.

Day 2 - Felt totally rejuvenated after a good night's sleep. We took a leisurely breakfast which has a good spread of food and freshly squeezed juice. They even have frozen yogurt for kids! Yum! While waiting for BJ and Julia to arrive, Jamie and I decided to check out the Kids' Club first. The kids' club is really big and has lots of activities! When the rest of the gang arrived. Julia, Josh and I decided to sign up for the Friday's Kids Evening Party, while the adults go about doing their own boring stuff like shopping and eating seafood.

The Party was a blast! There was a magic show, we also had games like duck duck goose and limbo rock. This is what i wrote in my travel journal (yes! from this trip onwards, i will be keeping a travel journal that documents my travel experiences.. urm... please pardon my less than perfect spelling and disjointed sentence.. i should get better with each successive trip :)

"Today is a variy special day. Tomorrow i will go to the beech. Now i will go to the kidd's club. Whoa! Diss is the Best Kids Club Party! Mommy I shaked money out of my ear!"


Day 3 - The adults decided that they wanted to do more shopping in the morning. So Julia and I opted to go to the kids club for some t-shirt painting, instead. At 2pm, our folks picked us up and we all headed for a Klias sunset river cruise. This is a totally back to nature experience! We took a boat out into the meandering river and saw probosis monkeys, wild water buffalos and also fireflies! Mommie said the boat ride is likened to that of a jungle cruise in Disneyland, except, this is for REAL! This place is so untouched by humans, no pollution, it almost paradise lost and found!



Day 4 - It's time to bid farewell. While Daddie and Mommie were busy packing up, Julia and I went to the kids club again. Oh.. i'm so gonna miss this place!

As i said, the company we had for this trip was great! I overheard my folks planning another trip with my friends' parents. Some destinations on the drawing board includes... mauritius, hokkaido, genting. Woooohoo!!! I can't wait to go on another family holiday with my friends again!! :)
