Legoland Malaysia 5th Anniversary

Sponsored Review

If you are looking for a nearby theme park out of Singapore, then Legoland Malaysia has to be your choice. Legoland Malaysia celebrates its 5th brick-versary this September. With this special celebration, we were blessed to have 2 sets of combo tickets (entry to both Legoland & Water themepark).

From the JB checkpoint, we took a 15mins Grab ride to our destination and the cost was only M$24/car.

Besides bringing the family, we were able to invite 4 close friends to join us. The girls had so much fun as the different gor-gors and jie-jies took turns to entertain them.

Due to the raining forecast that day, we have decided to spend the afternoon sun in the Water theme park first. Changed into out swim/beach wear, we are ready to conquer the rides. By that I mean the younger ones. I have the perfect reason (recovering eye) to be excused.

First ride of the day was this huge Red Rush ride. As the timid girls from the start, only Kless and the 4 friends (Calista, Celine, Andrew, Noel) went for it.

  

This ride is perfect the family with a maximum of 6 person at one go. Minimum height is 102cm.

Eventually, the timid ones took the plunge too, and mind you.. we did it twice! (can you see Jayne’s dramatic scared look, so wayang).

As the Kuan family relaxed at the Wave Pool (sadly there wasn’t any waves leh), the 4 other friends tried out all the other rides – Brick Blaster, Slide Racers, Tidal Tube, Twin Chaser, etc.

 

 

 

 

 

  

Surprisingly, the 2 boys (Andrew & Noel) had some fun at the kids’ water playground (Joker Soaker) too. They were splashing kids with the waterguns, running under the huge pail to be to be splashed by the giant 300-gallon bucket. I think they have re-discovered their childhood-ness in that place.

It was soaking fun for all of us!

After we bathed, it was almost 5pm. And we still have 2 more hours to visit Legoland before it closes at 7pm. Though we were all tired from the water fun earlier, thankfully the weather was good and we had a nice walk inside the park and enjoyed the spectacular LEGO displays.

Happy 5th birthday LEGOLAND!

 

One of the section in the park that always wow me is the Miniland.

 

For the special 5th Brick-versary, there is a new addition in the Park. The LEGO Star Wars Miniland. This is a must visit for all the Star Wars fans! I’ve never watched a single Star Wars movie, but I am very impressed by the size of the displays and the detail thoughts given to prepare the new Miniland attraction.

 

 

May the force be with you!

 

Time to leave.. we are tired and hungry, can’t wait to have dinner at KSL Mall!!

As we leave the Park, let me bring to you more new exciting fun release from LEGOland.

Join your favorite ninjas – Llyod, Jay, Kai, Cole, Zane and Nya from The LEGO Ninjago movie. LEGOland will be launching a series of activities that will allow aspiring ninja kids and families to hone their ninja skills at the LEGO Ninjago World training camp.

So look out for the info and date. Check out LEGOLAND.

Bangkok - Vana Nava Water Themepark

When you travel to Hua Hin, then you have to visit the water themepark – Vana Nava.

For those staying with InterContinental Hua Hin, this trip will be included in your booking with the hotel. And the hotel will arrange private pickups to and fro to the themepark.

If you have been to Adventure Cove in Sentosa, then this is not much of a difference. Similar rides, lazy river, wave pool, kids’ water playground, etc.

Boomerango
Turn and turn and turn when you experience weightlessness shooting up then down the wall at up to 45km/h before splashing down into a pool over 20m below. At 179m, this is the longest slide in Thailand!

 

Freefall
Looking for some defying gravity slides? Try this one that takes you 18m high then drops you straight down at up to 50km/h. Be sure your swimming wears are secured tightly.

AquaLoop
Still looking for faster slides? This slide is the only vertical looping slide in Thailand. And it can speed up to 60km/h for the real thrill seekers.

Abyss
Not brave enough enough for the single-pax rides, or simply too boring to scream alone. Then the Abyss is suitable for up to 6 people soaring up to a height of 28m, share four to five near-vertical spins and then plummet into a huge funnel at speeds of over 45km/h.

I think you have the idea of the ‘fun rides’. Here are some other activities for you.

Ropes Course
Standing at 13.4m tall, this is definitely not for those with acrophobia or simply fear of heights. However, all safety precautions are taken seriously, so it is suitable for all ages too.

Surf Zone
Imagine the seas in Australia, the waves and the sun, and the surf board! Pit your skills on this surf simulator, with the on-site team to guide you as you maneuver on either body boards or surf boards.

RainFortress
The number one place all kids will rush to in all water themeparks. Seven different slides that splash down to a child-friendly pool, where the big giant bucket awaits you with immerse amount of water.

Only less than 30mins, the girls are already so tanned. Remember! Put on lots of sunblock!!

Another sure hit activity for children.

AquaCourse
Hailed as the only one of its kind in Thailand, this obstacle course of ropes combined with water guns, will surely be fun and entertaining for all kids. Just think of how to get them down after you get them up.

 

After all the running around, sit back and relax in either one of these places.

Lazy River
About 345m long, bob around the entire park checking out on the various parts like the tropical jungle landscape, caves, waterfall, under bridges, etc. probably a good idea to take the lazy river to check out what rides have you missed or which ride has a shorter queue.

If one of your plan is to get a tan, why not do it in style? On a rattan bed located all over the place. If only, the ground is like the sandy beach, the experience would be complete (with a small umbrella cocktail).

Coconut Beach
I don’t really understand the meaning behind the name, but you get the idea. It’s the wave pool. Plenty of beach chairs for suntanning. Plenty of floats for all to share, single or double-seated. Enjoy the waves and regain some energy or let your heart rate return to normal (after all the exciting rides), before you go for the 2nd, 3rd, 4th round.

Lots of food and eateries scattered around the place. No worries on being hungry.

Signing off with a selfie! Hope you have a good time when you visit.
