Summer Light : Lost World of Tambun

Last part of the 7days trip with hsemates. Here we are setting ourselves in the awesome splashing water adventure at Lost World of Tambun. This water theme park is like another branch of Sunway Lagoon in Subang Jaya. It was a sudden plan to enter this theme park but this is a definitely a must visit place in Ipoh. Ipoh is usually famous with their caves, Kek Lok Tong, Nam Tin Tong and dont know what else tong. During the massive hot weather, visiting all those caves is as slow suicide. Therefore, this could be a great escape from hot weather.

Yet, double reminder; DO APPLY LOTSA SUNBLOCK.
Or else, you will end up like me, sunburn, bear the pain and depressed over dark skin.

Apart from that, Lost World of Tambun is great!


None of use been here before, so yeahhhhh all of us are equally excited.
Look at our eager faces =)


Busy with the tickets.
Adult entrance fee : Rm38


Act retarded and you will get 30% discount!

Entrance fee is included petting zoo and hot spring. Also, tiger feeding show available at many different time.

PETTING ZOO!

This is the part I love the most about the Lost World. I'd never been to a petting zoo before. This is a really good experience. You get so close with these animals and they just look so cuteeee!! You can pet most of the animals (not porcupine) as you wanted and if you are brave enough. The list of animals that I could rmber are racoons, rabbits, guinea pigs, skunk (I'm sure no one would want to pet them), hamsters, various species of birds, tortoises, monkeys, sugar gliders and more animals that I couldn rmber their names. There is a small reptiles zone too.


WELCOMING BOARD =)
We are allowed to feed the animals too. Each packet of food cost RM1.00 and it's different depending on animals. You can buy the animal food just as you enter the entrance of the petting zoo. I bought three different packet for the raccoons, rabbits/guinea pigs and birds. Must must must buy the bird food as they will only come to you when you feed them.

Reminder 2: BRING CAMERA!
You wont want to miss out pretty picture in there. We went in first time without camera as we thought we will be all wet soon so why trouble ourselves bringing non-waterproof camera. So, after all the water games, bath then reenter again for pictures!

As you enter, the first animal you meet is..
RUBY & FRIENDS


Maybe she is Ruby? I dont know. She just seems to stand there 24/7 waiting for food. Others lazying around branches.


SEEEEEE! You get a close touch with them. They dont bite but their hand it's a bit wet. It's alright, not dirty though.


This poor little thing keep waiting below. Must be scare of Ruby.


These two waiting at the other end. We thought they are not interested with our food. But, when we offered high up towards them, they grabbed it eagerly! So cute to see how eager they wanted food.


And this, just stay at the middle way. Lying comfortably.
There is also a cute baby raccoon we saw when we first enter. That baby raccoon freely walking around the visitor walkway. Sniffing along the stone to look for food and zookeepers babysitting him all the time. He was so cute that I couldn resist not touching him. But, he is a bit ignorant as no matter how I touch him, he still sniffing and finding for food. Really a hearty! Make me feel like adopting a baby raccoon! Too bad that the second time we enter, he's not there. So, not picture of him and imagine how regret am I for not bringing camera during the first visit =(


Finally a group picture.

Then, Rabbit Wonderland.


With guinea pigs as the rabbit neighbours.


Closer look. They are really clean! Zookeepers are really hardworking.


Attempt to feed the rabbits. But, they ignored us =.=
They were still so active the first time we visit. Now, probably they are full after feeding by others.


So maybe Mr. Heah too afraid that we will wasted the rabbit food
and he decided to feed me instead -________-


Working hard to attract them.
Maybe some rabbit language?


GOT ONEEEEEEEEEEE!


Delighted for their response too us. We are like "Faster take my picture, faster faster".

And when Yifui taking our picture from far,
EVIL RABBIT BITE ME!


This is the proof of crime scene! That rabbit is still biting me! I know everyone would say this is a priceless picture. And this picture never failed to make ppl laugh including the victim =( I realized how funny I look inside there and that expression is hilarious! I cant stop laughing too. But that moment is pure embarrassment. I shouted so LOUDLY when it bite. All the zookeepers attention were on me and they laughed too when I said, "It bite me!". Goshhhhhh, unforgettable. Maybe next time you visit, you will see a "Careful, rabbit bites" warning board there.


Rabbit can be harmful. It bleeds you see and that's explains my expression.

Next stop, the bird park.
A closed area with hundreds of birds flying free in there.

Brave enough? Get birds to stand all over you!


Now he look like a branch!


What a faking smile.


Paka chan smile is much better!


See me enjoying all the while. It's really fun.

But wait, misfortune is going to fall be on me soooooooon..



A bird from nowhere attacked my head!
And you can see Paka and Heah Kun laughing happily.
Even the zookeeper
-___________________-
You may wonder is it painful? The answer is yessss! But not too painful till the head bleed. It's just feel like hard scratching over you head.


Unable to stand the pain. I just pushed the bird away. Too bad for you Mr./Mrs./ Miss Bird.


Now a decent picture with much friendly bird.


This is a yellow cock I think. I dont really rmber what the zookeeper told us about it. His feather are beautiful. Silky and golden, look so macho!


The glamorous peacock.
Looks fierce so all of us were scared to feed him.


Paka was the first whom tried!


Then me. Ermmm, it was a slight pain especially when the bird food get lesser. The pain should be equivalent to the pain of pinch with sharp finger nails. Or seems like the a pair of scissors cutting your finger. But of course, the pain is bearable and not bleed.


That's yifui expression! Hahahahahhaha!


And Heah Kun!


Talking parrot. I heard them mumble but not really sure what they said.


Here's another one enjoying the corn.


Omg, I love this hedgehog!
I feel like having this in my home now!!!
So round and cute!


Ending our journey with peace!

The water games in Lost World of Tambun are much lesser compare to Sunway Lagoon and A-Famosa Resort. Only two water games, a river and big pool. However, what's more in here is the hot spring. Five hot spring pool with different degrees with lowest 37 degree and highest 47 degrees. I couldn get myself in the 47degrees pool at all. I dipped my leg a little on the 47 degrees pool surface and it feels like burning! But the rest are alright. There is one hot spring pool with those stone for foot massage. I love that the most as my leg feel so comfortable after soaking in the hot water with additional foot massage.

Good experience you shall never missed =)

Historical Land.

The Malacca short trip with the hsemates. Woke up at 5am to start our journey at 6am. Then, 4hours drive from Ipoh to Malacca. I was sleeping the whole time in the car. I swear I planned to stay awake because I always feel bad looking at the poor driver driving long hours and I happily sleeping behind. It's bad. But seriously, couldnt help it, dozed off after half an hour in the car.

After the long sleep, finally reached the destination at 10am.

Straight head for breakfast at Jonker. Dont recalled the shop name but most ppl would recognized the shop for the everyday long queue. Lets just name it the chicken rice ball restaurant.




YUMS YUMMS! I love chicken rice ball alot! More than the famous cendol and also satay celup.

Filled our stomach and it's time for a walk in Malacca.


The ever popular tourism spot, Red Building.


I am so tan now because of the Lost World Tambun. Spent half day in there and the result is I got sunburn again! It's like the forth time I'm suffering from the pain of sunburn =/


The loving couple.


Me and yi fui. Heading to the Canon spot.


Yifui, Zhi Min and Me.


Looks like those korean movie advertisement.


He want to be thousand hands buddha.


Ta-Danggggg! The secret behind reveal!


He must make sure the secret not be known by others.
So, he decided to murder her!
Zhi : Help help helpppppppp!


Continue Journey to the A Famosa.


Saw this bus stop and we decided to take a pic acting that we are waiting for bus. Paka seems like he is thinking something real hard. So unrealistic. Failed! Yuan yuan chan pretend that she is stalking some handsome cute boy. Yi fui seems to be the most realistic. Impatiently late for the late bus. Hahaha, seems very angry too.



Then, we called our sifu, Mr. Heah to act some sluggish ah pak waiting for bus.


A-Famosa.


He want to shoot hard!


So, Heah kun, if you dont work at Singapore, you'll end up working this. So, grit your teeth and go through your working days! =)

-End-

My timetable


The Sunday lunch with TanMingMing.

I'd indulge myself with lotsa free time addiction now.

Firstly, I started playing Angry Birds.

Then, I have my Diamond Dash game just as interval when I get bored with Angry Birds.

When I get lazy to play games, I edit picture with 美图秀秀.

Finally, just before I sleep, I watched Ghetto Justice to make sure I sleep with entertainment.

That will be activities I arranged for myself now.

Still perfect at this moment. And, I'm contended =)

Pretty pretty boy.

I punished my hair for growing annoying split ends.
Now, left only half of its original length.



Today, I just discovered a new software which have complete editing for perfect picture. You can make your eyes as huge as gold fish, flawless skin, immediate whitening, wide range of eyes colours, face reshaping, additional blushes, eyelashes extension and tattoos. Then, you can choose border from a plain white border as above to the movable cartoonist border. You can add ribbon, blinking love shape, Chinese quotes and various of cute animations. What's more is you can make yourselves looks like those movable animation. Something like you paste your face on a animated body which doing the Mr.Bean dancing.

Well, this 美图秀秀 amazed me the most is in how those editing tool able to turn a person face to looks like a barbie doll looking. Flawless shinning skin and big round eyes. A look where you will say "Awwwww, so prettyyy, so cuteee". Omg, now I think technology is really amazing. Seriously, you can look absolute ugly in real person but a massive beauty in picture nowadays. I'm really amazed. I know editing could do much helps but I didnt know that it was that much. And this software make it so easy. Just done by one click, it's totally effortless!

Okay, to justify it clearer, see below pic.


I dont need to tell which it's edited. The difference is just obvious. Omg, I can never can that flawless and skinny face. Look so babydollish right? Actually it's slightly undone also la cause I dont know how to add left fake lashes. I still cant find a button for that =/

What I love the most about this software is the ready borders. Various borders for me to choose and I dont need to do the "select all" then "fill stroke" in photoshop anymore. I really like this plain white border =) However, it's kinda hard for me to explore more cause everything is in Chinese. I'm like a blind mouse guessing each button meant what. It would be perfect if it's in English.
