Fontana Water Theme Park(Feb. 23, 2013)

This was The Family's first time in Fontana Water Theme Park and for my son,
it was a water fun blast!!!

The Water Park is located inside the Fontana Hot Spring Leisure Parks
and Casino, Clark Field, Pampanga. It is one of the recreation that
this resort is known for.

Since it was a weekend, we got our tickets for PHP475 but with 30% discount
due to membership privilege.

It has clean shower  and dressing rooms, accommodating staff and
affordable food inside except for the fallen dried leaves since the area has
lots of trees.  What is good is that you can sneak-in food as I haven't noticed
or asked if foods are allowed to be brought inside.

 Photo-op at the entrance...

In the Pirate Ship.

The Water Factory's showers.

The exciting Big Horn Slide Pool...

At the Kiddie Pool where kids can enjoy several slides such as the Frog Slide,
water guns for fun, see-saw and splash into the water.

 

 

At the 3 Giant Aqua Thrill Slides.

At the Wave Pool where my son really enjoyed the every 30-minutes electronically
produced waves.

 

The Lazy River...

Malaysia's Skyscrapers - Petronas Twin Towers (Jan. 27, 2013)

Petronas Twin Towers - seeing the tallest twin towers in the world for 6 years
record, this is one dream came true for The Family.

My son with his favorite Taekwondo stunt on his dobuk costume.

As this was our third and last day in Malaysia, we really reserved this day
to see these iconic twin skyscrapers.

From Genting Highlands via the Genting Skyway to Gohtong Jaya station
then took a bus to KL Sentral then rode the train to KLCC, we didn't leave
Malaysia without seeing this up-close.

In our next visit, we'll surely go up the bridge.
