Some amazing views from our window. See what i mean with the road! Oh the fun you could have.
This place was genius. We were amazed how posh and built up the place was considering it was on top of a mountain. We checked into the First World hotel which is renowned for being the first ever hotel built with 6,000 rooms. It was brightly coloured and had an indoor and outdoor theme park. These were mostly aimed at kids but there was plenty to do and see. We were on the 19th floor and the views from our room were astonishing, especially considering we were above cloud level. We booked tickets for the Mysteria magic show which was pretty impressive and Jo was was amazed when they replaced a girl with a white tiger on stage. We also checked out the casino and nightclub but all got quite expensive! The next day we took a return cable car trip to the foot of the mountain and back and we saw some amazing views over tropical monkey infested rainforest. This is the fastest longest cable car in South East Asia. Went to see the new bond file Casino Royale in the afternoon. We booked luxury OSIM seats which meant we had a quality reclining leather massage chair. This was a

This was so good we caught it back up the mountain again. Well we weren't gonna walk it / climb! ;)
brilliant way to watch the film and can’t believe how they don’t have these back home as it was so comfy. Jo didn’t complain once of bum ache and film weren’t bad either. The next day we caught VIP coach to Singapore, which was absolute luxury as we again had the reclining massage chair along with a retractable LCD TV showing the best films from recent years. Did not manage to get any sleep as Star Wars episode III, then Spiderman II, and then XXX 2. This was a pimp way to travel and the hours flew by, all 7 of them. This journey cost less than 10 quid each and there was only 7 people on this double decker fully fitted 36 seater luxury coach. Again we were surprised we don’t have these back home as you could charge a fortune. Entering Singapore was hassle free as the coach took us through customs and dropped us off at what we thought was near the city centre.
