Snowy Sunday

The weekends always come and go in a blink of an eye. It's always not enough. Yesterday, Joseph had his first fake snow experience at none other place but Snowalk, I-City at Shah Alam. It's Elizabeth's second snow experience. Her first one was in Genting Highlands. We arrived there quite early before 7pm before the crowd arrives. But the funny thing was we didn't went straight to the Snowalk because the children were attracted by the amusement rides first. *slaps forehead* 

LED lighted trees were expected and even the float used during the Putrajaya Floria 2011 was there. So the children spotted the amusement rides first and we spent an amount of time there. The children got to play some rides and video games. We then proceeded to the purchase tickets for the Snowalk which were gathering more crowd already by this time. Joseph got to enter free because he is below 3 years old so we got worried whether there will be jackets provided for him. We were surprised when the lady at the jackets counter handed over to us a toddler jacket for Joseph. Phew! What a relief! Otherwise, we will just have to make do with the sweater I bought for him. So we were each given a jacket and entered Snowalk. 

It was nice at first entering a cold enclosure compared to the hot temperature outside. Then it got colder and colder. Thank goodness the jacket could keep us warm enough except for our hands and feet. We noticed some indian tourists were wearing wellington boots and were wondering how come we were not provided with the boots. Then I saw a sign that says the boots can be rented outside. There was also this guy selling gloves and ear mufflers inside. Everything is money! Tickets not expensive enough huh? So I told the children to put their hands inside the pocket and they will feel much better. And also to use the hood at their jacket. It really helps a lot instead of getting those ear mufflers. Since we are not renting the boots, we will just have to walk slower at slippery areas. 

Joseph especially enjoyed the cold experience. He was grinning from ear to ear and we caught him licking the ice so many times! Aiyoh. After the Snowalk, we went to the park where there were many LED lighted trees. They look so beautiful at night. I wonder whether they look just as nice during the daytime. Haha. Then it's time to go home. The children returned tired but happy. :)

My two cubs.

Eliza wants to take a picture with 'Melman'. Hehe.

Batman has received a distress call and is off to the rescue!

Not another ride again!

Joseph and Papa playing video game.

Now it's Elizabeth's turn.

This game is fun for the family. You sit in it and get to experience some motion while playing the game. A mouth gaping experience for Joseph but a nail biting experience for Elizabeth. LOL.

These video games must have a sexy babe in it huh? Hehe.

Taking a picture with the snowman while waiting for Papa to purchase the tickets to enter Snowalk.

Here Christmas comes early huh?
My boy looking like a china baby. Haha. He is from Harbin, China..:P
 
My happy children.

Joseph running in and out of an igloo.
I think Joseph is trying to lick ice again!

Elizabeth is looking out of an ice window. It's an ice house with ice table and two ice stools in it.

That black figure was not suppose to be there! lol. Elizabeth jumped in while I was taking the picture.

Picture taken by the photographer. We purchased the photos and since I don't have a scanner. I just took the photos again with my camera.

Look Ma, no hands! I don't need gloves!

A family portrait.

The park with LED lighted trees.

More 'pine' trees.

Cute isn't it?

I like the colours here the most!

Christmas tree in front, red lanterns at the back. I'm confused. LOL.

The Christmas tree again.

This is the float used during the Putrajaya Floria 2011.

  12. Hi Tracy!

    Parking is just RM1 but I think there might be free parking which I don't know how to find.

    Entrance fee to Snowalk with MyKad should be around RM20 to RM25 for adults. Your little Tricia should be free because they only start charging from 3 years old onwards. So go now! hehe.
