DAY 5
We tried their famous live giant river prawns the last time and the Hubby loved it so much that he insisted we make a stop here before continuing to Kuala Lumpur (check out my previous post for all the photos).
After lunch, we drove for another 1.5-2 hours to our hotel, Royale Chulan Damansara. We chose this hotel for its close proximity to shopping centres and of course, Kidzania Kuala Lumpur! We'll be visiting Kidzania in September so it was a good chance for us to prepare for it.

| The Royale Chulan Damansara |
 |
| Left: It was the month of Ramadhan when we visited; Right: Super high ceilings and chandeliers in the lobby. |
The hotel ran out of the Premier Rooms, which we had booked, so they upgraded us to the Club Room (but without the privileges sadly).
 |
| Giant king bed |
 |
| We booked connecting rooms |
 |
| Clockwise from top left: The wardrobe, safe and other amenities; Spacious bathroom with no bathtub though; Simple toiletries, nothing extraordinary; Complimentary water. |
 |
| Toilet area is separate from the bath area |
We only had time for a short 30 minute swim at the pool but the kids had fun. It was nothing like Golden Sands Resort of course but it would suffice.

| Smaller wading pool for the younger ones |
The hotel also had a small indoor playground within the hotel but we didn't have time for it.
 |
| Kiddies Land |
Instead, we went shopping at The Curve, located right next to our hotel. The best part about the mall? The Kids Zone!

 |
| Kids Zone, with nursing room facilities |
 |
| Big toddler play area |
 |
| Beautiful aquarium that looks like the one that used to exist in Wisma but don't any more |
 |
| "Look mummy, that's Dory!" |
 |
| The playground for older kids |
 |
| The kids loved it! |
 |
| Walking outside under the lights |
We didn't have enough time to explore the whole mall! We'll come back when we visit KL again in September! =)
DAY 6
The next morning, we had breakfast at the hotel's Royale Coffee House.
We checked out and drove about 1 hour to Muar where we bought their famous Otah and had lunch.
What a great way to end our road trip! Can't wait for our next adventure in Malaysia! =)
