Dad and sis came to KL for a short vacation, so I decided to bring them to A Famosa. We'd been to the Animal Safari before, but this time, we decided to stay a night just for the fun at the Carnival. My parents in law also came along, so we borrowed a 7-seater Volvo from tai-sou.
We waited for dear to finish work at 1pm, had lunch and then, headed to our destination. After about 1.5 hours ride, we finally reached! 
We checked into our room, 1312. Parents in
law's room is next to ours.
The view from our balcony..
Ola, poor dear. He was very tired coz had to work in the morning, and drove all the way to A Famosa. Sayang, sayang.......
Dear studying the map of Cowboy Town; the place of the Carnival Show!
After rested for an hour, we were ready to go out.
Dad, fiona and me decided to walk to the Cowboy Town which is just around 10mins of walk from the Resort Hotel. Dear sent his parents by car.
From afar, we could already hear the loud music coming from the Cowboy Town..ooo...so excited!
I queued up to buy entrance tickets. We bought tickets for the 4D Theatre as well. Quite a long queue, but the staff was very friendly.Fiona, what were u dreaming about?? Can't wait to go in?? :)
My parents in law waiting patiently to go in.
The entrance. The usher led us in..I found it strange, becoz they led my parents in law thru another entrance, while the rest of us, thru another entrance.Before i could question, a lady handed me a hat and gave a gun to dear. A guy put a parrot on dear's shoulder. And smile!!! They took our picture. Wah, such efficient way to earn $$...
And that's not all! We were led to a bench where an orang utan was sitting. The orang utan is soo obedient. As soon as I sat next to her, she put her arm around me, another arm on my lap..and the trainer squeezed her face, and she started smiling..so cute..but i find her pitiful. U can see the picture of me and orang utan at later part of this blog.
It was already 7pm, so the next stop would be naturally the restaurant! There were 2 restaurants; chinese and western. We decided on western food; The Ranch Steak House..
The food was so-so only, just to fill up tummiesss....After dinner, we walked to the carnival area. The first show was some cowboy showing off their talents in swallowing fire......they also picked a few audience and teased them. Then, there was a short break, and the staffs started to sell things. I bought a fan with fun lights and music. There were also some staffs carrying a small lion cub and tempting us to hold it and snap a picture. My picture was blurry so i did not purchase............
And finally the parade!
The first animal to come in were the chickens! I could not take the pictures as the chickens were running so fast in a straight line! Hahaha...i was amused watching them......
The cowboy parade...this cowboy was shooting at the audience..
A beautifully decorated car
Some talented elephants!
Orang utan waving to the crowd
Even goats also paraded haha Black N White...
The colourful fans...... Nice right..
After the show, there were some fireworks display.
Finally, time for the 4D theatre. The show for the night was Haunted Office. I was sooo nervous, hopefully wouldnt be too scary..hehe
At 4D theatre waiting area. Well, the show was very disappointing. It was just an animation, to my relief, though...and the story was just too boring...anyway, what do you expect from a 15mins show..i could only feel the wind and some water blowing to my face..my conclusion is that i prefer the 3D show at Genting hahaha..After the theatre, we walked around. There were some funfair and games, but very expensive..There were also bowling alley and karaoke (i think it was closed) and massage centre. But we decided to head back to zzzzzz.........
The next day......Went for breakfast in Cowboy Town at the Chinese restaurant. There were 3 sets to choose from, porridge set, nasi lemak set and American breakfast.
And free flow drinks..a plate of fruits.
The place was so crowded with people the night before. But look at it in the morning, so deserted!
Cowboy Town only operates at night times, starting from 6pm onwards.
The entrance to Cowboy Town. We took some pictures the night before, but not so nice..
After breakfast, we decided to leave the place and headed to Melaka town. Our mission was to taste the famous Chicken Rice Ball..but we were not sure of the place..hopefully can find.After about more than half an hours' ride, we reached Melaka town...but where's the famous chicken rice ball shop?????
We saw a young man and we decided to ask him. He said he would lead us there...so nice of him!!! But half way, we lost him...haiz......but in the end we managed to find a restaurant...hopefully this is the famous one.........
Heng Hainanese Chicken Rice. Also packed with people..
Ohh, we saw some bulletins..this place must be famous, coz Alan Tam and Ah B also had been here before. hehe...
We ordered roasted and steamed chicken and vege..Free black bean soup, very nice soup.The chicken meat is tender but not so tasty...to my disappointment.
The rice ball was abit too buttery for my liking..
Anyway, we were all satisfied that we had tasted Melaka's famous delicacies..maybe some of you out there could tell me exactly where is the nicest chicken rice shop in Melaka??
After lunch, we headed back to KL...we reached around 4pm and had a tea break in Old Town White Coffee Shop at PJ..........Was quite a nice & satisfying trip.......
Oh ya..the picture with orang utan that i promised to show u all........ haha..isnt the orang utan cute?? But too bad, she wasnt showing her teeth here.
