*WARNING: WORDY ENTRY AHEAD!*
Aiyah im still freshed from post-getaway that my itchy fingers cannot stop typing and rambled away! So this is a very lenthy one liao!


My escapade for the weekend was nowhere far, my ultimate agenda of 'seeking solace' (as told to Mr LMT)in Kuala Lumpur was simply craving for some time apart away from our stifling shores. A quickie getaway to ease the mind and well indulged on a bit of retail theraphy. Ehem anything theraphy is not a health hazard, though its very hazardous to your pocket.

So Elfy and myself decided to depart on Saturday night so that we have the whole Sunday without rushing and some more time on Monday before we head back that day.

I totally dig travelling coach by night (much thanks to Mr LMT for purchasing the tix for us), i cant explain why but i just love the unsettling feeling as the coach cruise by the plantations and how spooky it looks at night. Of course i had certain reservations of my own like fearing for our safety. Thankfully it was a smooth ride but unexpectedly we reached KL way early then our estimated time. We were already there at 3am (freaking early!!), since we can only booked into our hotel later that day, we were very much aimless but luckily our trip coincide with Baidah's trip with her family. Such a relief when she was kind enough to let us crash at her suite in Berjaya Times Square hotel for the morning.

The hospitality by her big family was great, but we didnt get much of a sleep the entire night, the time was spent yakking away in the kitchen since the rest of the area was already occupied. I guess it was very much needed! Filling up the missing gaps on what we missed out on each other and laughing our ass up each time her uncle 'farted' in between our conversations(while sleeping mind you!)!

We had Nasi Kandar for brunch, a hearty brunch i should say! With that we bid goodbyes to her boisterous family who greeted these two refugees with much warmth! I love your family babe!


Elfy and Baidah (swimming pool at Times Square hotel before Elfy and me left)

Did a weeny binge on spending before i told Elfy that im in desperate need of a bath, the humid weather was getting to me, but not before both of us got lost in Bukit Bintang trying to search for our hotel Dorsett Regency which in the end was located right at the very end of the infamous shopping belt in KL.

We were so glad that we were able to check in at 12.30pm and as soon as we got into our room,it was heaven sent! Like finally after sweating ourselves out i was looking forward to a long cold bath until Elfy exclaimed as she pushed away the heavy curtains to unveil the view from our hotel room (by the way,this has always been a habit each time she steps into a hotel room first, to check out the view)

"Thanks eh Lis! Thanks a lot! The view lawa nak mampos!"

I knew immediately that was sarcasm. You see i was the one who booked the hotel and both of us agreed that this time we want our hotel to be conveniently located in Bukit Bintang. And i had done my own research of the hotel, it was value for money with good location and it was a four star hotel after all. I read a review that it will be even better if your hotel room will be on the 15th floor and above because you get to see the beautiful city of blinding lights at night with KLCC in view but we were already crestfallen when our room was on the 8th floor but i did not expect the view to be this



So as soon as i saw this i burst out laughing so hard and was tickled very much to see the expression on Elfy's face to which i replied

"Eh darling this is first class view la! How often do you get a hotel room facing a lake this wonderful! So cantik macam nak go swimming in the lovely green water kan?! Susah tau nak request this room specially untuk kau just to get this view!!"

By then Elfy could no longer hold on and laughed her heart out too

"Ok la tasik pun tasik la!!"

So after having a good rest we head out, taking the LRT to Puduraya first to get our return home coach tickets and then off to KLCC to have our late lunch. Both of us were craving for the steak at their foodcourt (which we always have when we were in the capital) it tasted quite good for an affordable price. Browse around KLCC but surprisingly we did not get anything at all, past experiences we cannot leave without purchasing something.I did tried on a few shoes but its either they dont have my size or the color that i wanted! The only thing that i bought there believe it or not were cinammon rolls! I miss cinammon rolls la! Singapore dont have it anymore!

Later on we head back to bukit bintang Sungai Wang, bought a few things especially a new pair of shades (yay!) but honestly i supposed we were feeling tired our enthusiasm for shopping failed us. By 10pm we have given up and decided to go for a well-deserved massage.
Ok the main priority of this trip was 'THE MASSAGE', yeps that was the sole reason why i lure my dearest Elfy to come with me to KL. I cannot stand the aching body that has been prolonging for weeks and before it screams bloody murder i need to get it pampered.

It was very orgasmic la..sigh..ok omit all the dirty thoughts you have! But it was hell of good massage with the lady massaging at the right places especially when she was adding pressure at the tension points. I was in a daze when we left the place, and much much lighter :) it was so good that we were finding a hard time to wake up for breakfast!! Although i could do with a couple more hours of sleep i cannot bear missing breakfast, by the time we head down it was almost 9am. Breakfast was brilliant,the spread was amazingly good, spoilt for choices and i love the ambience of the restaurant, the waiter got us seated by the window facing Ritz Carlton (fyi our hotel was nestled among the glitzy hotels, Ritz to our front, Westin right, JW Marriot was behind), therefore we were feeling-feeling madamoiselle in a french cafe, sipping orange juice,coffee and feasting on good toast with omelette! Heh to which all of a sudden i smacked my forehead and realised that i did not bring my camera down with me. And an even bigger more gasped when i realised that we have neglected cam whoring the entire time which i pointed out to Elfy


"Fy! Kita tak ambik gambar eh dari semalam??!"


Elfy replied "kan kau kata datang sini nak relax-relax je, shopping pun tak nak banyak-banyak, kalau nak kene pening kepala taking pictures penat tau nak posing-posing"

She is always good at giving me off-guard anwers which always gets me giggling! Anyways its not our first trip to KL and we have seen and been around here so many times that we just did not bother taking photos. I mean you dont want to know how many KLCC twin towers photo i have!

Anyways on the last day,i dont know what got into us we were doing last mintue geared up shopping! I suppose both of us had been revitalise after the whole pampering affair the previous night. Things that look stale the day before somehow its a must get that day! So much for 'taknak banyak shopping'heehee! We spent quite a sum at Factory Outlet, i adore that store so much! Cheap bargains from US brands! So much so that i actually overspent, i was just doing the like and grab as i go along, getting things for the family back home. Pure satisfaction! Only one complained though i have a hard time finding a cd shop, and when i do the CD that Mr LMT requested was sold out! Selling like hotcakes eh Sheila Majid!

We would love to spend another day there.. Albeit it was a short period, i had a lovely time with Elfy, how romantic i know!

The only photos of us being taken on the way back to Singapore in the coach (psst! im loving my newly arched eye brows,one of the many 'things things' we did in our room!!Hehee its long overdue la, and i only allow Elfy and no one else to touch them. Ironically Elfy gave me a stern warning too i better not go anywhere else and have it plucked because she will KNOW!Yikes!)





I love quickie getways like this, but next time can we have the Banyan Tree Villa?
Hehee yesh yesh, we are crazy like that berangan tak abis sudah! Ok la Fy, Baidah, itu villa i rather spend it with my other half la hor! Not that i dont love you guys to death but well tak steam la go with you ladies! Imagine the inhibited things i can do with the other half..?! Ok now the dirty thoughts can start kickin in!! Heh!!
