Fun and excitement at a merely 15 minutes drive from PIL’s house. Albeit the ‘war’ and fight over the floating duck at home, we managed to reach LWoT at around 10.30 am, 30 minutes after the door opened. As the first few comers, we got to play by the waterfall beach garden all for ourselves. Different from Sunway Lagoon with imitation pyramid at the background, the majestic rock formations simply took my breath away. It’s a magnificent fusion of man-made and nature. Simply love it!!!
We then made our way to the Explorabay where the mothers and children spent most of our time while the fathers were whizzing down the slides and tube rides. Compared to other water parks that Ive been, this was the one with the most child-friendly slides and largest interactive play area. The plus point was the canopy that covered most part of the pool that made it a pleasant place to stay as long as you wish.
Without their papas we took the kids on a ride at the adventure train around the park. Nina was soo happy that she kept saying “kite naik Thomas ek mama”. There were not that many people at that time so the train driver drove slowly giving us the chance to sit back and enjoy the journey past the majestic ruins, surging water and even wild tigers.
After lunch, we took the children on a ride at the carousel. There were only us and another family so the caretaker let the machine run for more than 15 minutes!!!
Then it was time to try the adventure river. Unfortunately the children were afraid of the wave and reluctant to stay still on the float. The spraying water features and the noisy monkey statues simply made them cried even more. To make the matter worst, it started to rain heavily so we rushed to the nearest shelter.
The rain didn’t make us stop. We made our way to the hotspring and took a dip in the warm water. This will be the only day that I let Nina play in the rain. Alhamdulillah nobody was sick. Must be the goodness of the hotspring.
As the rain stopped, the rest of the crony made their way to the tiger valley for the feeding show. Nina was getting cranky so I let her took a nap at the shelter. After pray and tea, we made our way home, 15 minutes before they close their gate. What a tiring day…….
