School holiday fun in JB


 
 
 

 
 
 

Mango Pomelo and Sesame Paste. 
 Not too sweet. Mom loves them
 

Mom says this bowl is too cute 
not to photograph
 
 

 
 
Holiday Villa JB 

 

That's not a mirror on the right; 
it's the door to our adjoining room
 
 
 

The rain is coming down in buckets
 
 

Once again, that's not a mirror on the 
left; it's the door to our parent's 
adjoining room
 
 
 

Yay! Mommy's done taking pictures! 
 We can go lie on the bed now!
 

This place is awesome! The food is super yummy and fresh. 
 The people who work there are really nice and helpful. 
You have to make a reservation because they don't let you just walk in

Kuroma Buffet & Dining
  
 
 
 
  
 
 
 
  
  
 
 
Restaurant staff treated diners to a lively 
five-minute dance performance
 
 
 
 
 
 

There are fireworks going off all night. We have no idea why, 
but it's pretty awesome. It's so cool to watch!
  
 
 

 A simple, satisfying breakfast 
at the hotel cafe. 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

I wanted to play Pokemon Tretta 
yesterday, but the machines were all 
taken. So we went to the arcade really 
early today, but other people had the 
same idea
 
 

When the arcade opened, kids rushed to 
the Pokémon Tretta machines. I ran fast 
and got one! I was happy.
 
 
  
 
 
  


 
 
 
 

The 'Very Important Plant'
It sat proudly in its little red-roped-off corner
 

Johor Bahru City Square

 
  

  
 
 

 

Mom and Dad got tui na massages, but said they were agonizingly sore 
and achy afterward, not relaxing at all
  

After a quick breakfast in the hotel cafe, 
we went to check out the hotel's infinity pool
 
 
 
 
 

A loving father and son interacting
 
 
 
 

There was a huge traffic jam on the 
street, and cars were stuck for hours

One last bath bomb bliss before we 
check out
 

 We enjoyed that dim sum again today, 
just like the first time we had it.
 
 
 

I need a little rest from all the walking around the shops. 
Mom and Dad were buying a million local snacks for everyone, 
and even Kor Kor was out getting last-minute stuff for his friends
 
 

Enjoying one last meal in Johor Bahru before heading 
to the train station for our journey home
  
 
 
  
 

I woke up early, excited to assemble the toy I bought at JB 
– my most expensive and favorite souvenir!
