It’s going to be another long weekend this week, as Friday is a public holiday. It’s great to be a Malaysian. 
For those living in KL city, the nearest destination to spend a short 3 days 2 nights holiday will be at Genting Highlands, where there are theme parks, amusement parks, casinos, magical performances, shopping outlets and restaurants, so one can eat, shop, have fun and entertainment all at the same time. And the weather is cool up there on the hills. Don’t have to sweat like a pig even when walking outside the hotel.
I hardly go to GH though, despite it’s only a 45-60 minutes drive from where I stay. Hubby says he’s not a kid anymore; he finds no purpose visiting the game arcades or the theme park (the ticket to which is quite expensive too), he’s not interested in gambling, and he complains that the food there is expensive.
Well, I do agree to his points, but I still think that it’s the cheapest and nearest holiday spot to chill out once in a while, and the hotel room package is very cheap during weekdays.
I know there is one of the many holiday spots in US that also combines excitement, entertainment and shopping altogether is Branson, in Missouri, US. Of course, they have more to offer there such as outdoor activities in the nature - boating and fishing in lakes, camping, hiking or birdwatching in the hills, etc. Probably hubby would change his mind about GH if they took away the casinos and replace them with these activities, haha!
If you are interested to spend a fun-filled holiday in Branson, you can always check out the internet for the best deal on Branson vacation packages.
For me, perhaps I have to come up with some really good ‘reasons’ to persuade hubby to take me to GH one of these days. ;P
