West Malaysia loop ride

Day six.

Ah…day six. The morning at the Rainforest Retreat is quite something else! The place wakes up early enough to the sound of birds chirping everywhere. A misty dew lingers on just a little longer as the morning sun rises to cast a beautiful light on the great rock that towers behind the house. It was a wonder to behold.

We had breakfast in as we had lots of leftover food from last night. The owner also supplied us with quite a lot of fruits which was super yummy too! Soon it was time to get ready for a fun day!

Are you loading or unloading Eric? (Photography by Chris)

Our destination today was going to be about an hour’s ride away. So we set off soon after and headed towards Shah Alam. We were going to have some fun today with a lot more rubber!

The karting track! It was time for some karting fun! (Photography by Chris)

We got to the track at the Shah Alam stadium and got ourselves some time with go-karts. It was fun going around the track as fast as we could. Round and round. Man…this thing really grew on us. It was so fun we did not take many pictures at all!

No matter how fun karting was, it would eventually be time to go. We headed off trying to find the Moto Guzzi dealership here at Glenmarie and we found it. Unfortunately it was closed! They had gone for a bike week somewhere (maybe in Terengganu). Oh well. We ended up having lunch at SEA Park before heading back back to Rawang.

It was really hot by the time we got back so we made a stop at the coffee shop for some refreshments.

So hot! Good to have ice cold drinks! (Photography by Chris)

This kitty was going all around us and we could not resist playing a little. (Photography by Chris)

After the refreshments…it was time to laze around until dinner time.

I guess Chris is very good with finding nice relaxing spots! (Photography by Chris)

See what I mean? (Photography by Chris)

Anyway, it was soon time to get ready to head out for dinner. We ordered a taxi to bring us there so we did not have to worry about the hassle of parking in the city. This also gives us the opportunity to have something refreshing to drink while we were there!

All eager to find out what the special dinner experience was going to be like…

And then it was time for drinks!!!

So essentially this is all I get to show about the actual dinner… (Photography by Chris)

We went for the Dining in the Dark dinner experience. Teresa helped to book it and joined us for the evening. It was a fantastic experience of dining without light. Not a single bit of light. Eating just with the sensation of touch, smell, sound and taste without sight was a very unique experience. Most of us could not properly identify what we had in our mouths but the food was great nonetheless.

A perfect way to end the day I would say!
