Technically, we don't have summer in Malaysia but whatever~


So, since the Malacca trip was cancelled, HL suggested to go Sunway Lagoon instead, just the two of us. I've always wanted to relive my childhood memories in this water themepark and moreover, there's Buy-One-Free-One promotion again (it's a mid-year promotion for both college/university students and Sunway Pals members)! The normal ticket price is RM120 per person which is freaking expensive! So this promotion sure is a good deal!


I think Sunway Lagoon has done a great job in providing convenience to customers. They have upgraded their wristbands! It's very convenient now as you can load a minimum of RM50 into the waterproof paper wristbands and enjoy cashless payment system inside the themepark! You can reload at counters located at several points in the themepark and get back your credit balances before 7PM. Futhurmore, they've also upgraded their lockers! Now it's electronic!

E-locker

After we got our locker, I changed into my new swimwear. YES, my new swimwear. Remember last time I planned a Sunway Lagoon trip with my friends (uni friends, high school friends... eventually all cancelled =.=)? I bought a set of swimsuit for the trip but didn't have the chance to wear it until now lol.

Vuvuzela

The first thing we hoped on was THE FAMOUS VUVUZELA: the world's largest vortex water ride, as claimed by Sunway Lagoon. I've wanted to try it since the first time I saw it in the advertisement when it just came out. Since it was HL's most anticipated ride of all and it was near the entrance of the water park, we went for it without warming up lol. Well, initially from how it seems in the picture, I thought it wouldn't be that thrilling. But boy, I was so wrong!

We had to share the ride with three other people (a father and his sons) because it required five people. Here is where I would say that it's nicer if you come with a bunch of friends, make it at least four people.
Coz it's kinda awkward when you're sitting inside the float with strangers... Don't know where to look =.=

The ride was very fast! HL wanted to record the whole thing but our hands had to hold on tightly to the float because the ride was quite rough! The peak of the thrill was when the ride reached a small peak (like the peak of a roller coaster but smaller I guess?) and we were thrown off the slide for a second and there was a free fall? Lol everything happened too fast before my brain can figure out what's going on. After the peak, we continued racing down the slide and into the vortex! That was where I got brain concussion LOL! And the ride was ended with a big splash on our traumatised body lol.

When I finally set my feet on the ground again, I felt that I've just gone through a car accident and I felt dizzy!
Am I too old for these shits?! Or just lack of sleep? I'll go with lack of sleep... Before I can restore my "sobriety", the father suggested to go one more time and I got dragged along by HL into that ride again =.=
Yeah, I still had same degree of concussion for the second time.

After Vuvuzela, we went for the Congo Challenge jet water slides because it was just next to Vuvuzela.
It's nothing compared to Vuvuzela (basically everything else was just a leisurely ride after Vuvuzela). But I hurt my ankle here =.= We also went for the African Pythons, the curly water slides. It was just blah...

Waterplexx 5D [google image]

Then, we went into the Waterplexx 5D theatre. I was expecting it to be like the 4D Motion Master in Genting Highland. Well, more or less like that but with more water splashing! The place were freezing! Actually it's not that cold maybe because we were soaking wet so we felt it's extra colder than the real temperature. The interior of the place was like an insect hive... or some mutated insect alien thingy's hiding place. So cold and wet... The whole point of this ride was just getting wet...
