KLCC Aquaria
October 24th, 2007 by Shooi
We took Bryan to KL for the Raya holidays. I told Bryan 2 days before we left that we will take him to KL and he was very excited about it. He kept on asking for KL and was very excited when it was finally the time to go.
As usual, we took our sweet time when we go for holidays with Bryan. We left the house for breakfast and then straight to KL about 10++ on Saturday morning. Initially Bryan was quite well behaved in the car. He kept saying, “KL, KL, KL,…” in a sing song manner. Shortly after we past the Juru toll, he realized that the drive to Kl is very long and started to get agitated. I guess he thought that we were bluffing him. So we had to calm him down because he was demanding to be taken out from his car seat and demanding to go to KL. So hubb told him to be patient and we will go to KL where there are lots of McDonalds *roll eyes*. And that calmed him down almost immediately. Bryan was then humming…”KL, tua-tua (a lot) nenenno”
Luckily not long after that, he fell asleep. And was asleep all the way until we reached KL. Husb and I did not stop for lunch because we did not want to wake Bryan up. Besides, I brought sandwiches along. When Bryan woke up, I gave him some bread and cheese, and that miserably was his lunch too.
As soon as we reached KL, we decided to look for the famous Pan Mee at Chow Kit area. After pusing pusing many rounds we found the place but unfortunately they were closed. Fortunately, Bryan was not annoyed by the endless driving as he indeed saw lots of McD along the KL roads.
So we checked into our hotel, freshen up and then took the LRT to KLCC.
Bryan was very happy to see the LRT train and kept saying “hua che, yau yau” ( I want train).

We arrived at KLCC and were very hungry. So we stopped by the first place we came across for food – Delifrance. I ordered lasagna, soup and fish fillets to share with Bryan. After dinner, we decided to go to just walk around a bit then head to the KLCC Aquaria. I was expecting a long queue but to my surprise, there was none. But on the way there, we saw groups of students leaving the place, so I guess we just missed the crowd…Yippee!! I guess we are lucky that we came in the evening instead of early in the day…Psst parents, note this tip. But do note that the Aquaria closes at 8pm and the last entry was 7pm.
Bryan was enthralled the moment we entered. He stood by the aquarium where there was a small shark with a school of fish and refused to leave the place. And he said, “Fish,yiu yiu” (swim).

The only thing that could make him move from the spot was the promise of more fishes ahead.
He also loved the turtle section because we used to keep tortoises at home and my parents still have tortoises at their house.

The section that all of us loved the most is of course, the tunnel…

I know it is not as impressive as the Singapore aquarium, but to Bryan, I think it is good enough.
And what did Bryan learn from the trip to KLCC Aquaria….How the fish’s mouth looks like…
He saw a big freshwater fish opened it’s mouth right in front of him. So now when ever, we asked him, “What does the fish’s mouth looks like?” He’ll do this….


Awww… we missed each other by a day! It would have been such a funny thing had we bumped into each other there. Where did you all stay?
haha…Bryan is so cute…
haha, I am most amused when i read that Bryan was calmed down by the fact that KL has a lot of McD, “KL tuo tuo nennena…” haha!!! So cute la!
