A Weekend at KLCC

For a change, we decided to head to KLCC as our daughters wanted to go to the "The Science of Speed Exhibition" at the Petronas Science Center. As this was the F1 weekend - why not. One weekend into the noise and crowd should be fine.

It turned it that we our youngest fella, Arian, despite being a huge fan of racing cars and have watched "Cars" the move a zillion times - did not like the noise of the real racing car. Shown in the picture below, he was really crying and wanted to get away from the car.


On the other hand, Samanta and Amrita had a great time. Sam enjoy the game that tested the reflexes and of course, the ride in a "real" F1 car!


Amrita and I tried our hand at the pitstop - to change tyres. We had to change one set of tyres within 10 seconds. Guess who did what? Amrita handled the really heavy electrical tool to release and tighten the bolt while I changed the tyres. We completed the change in 10.1 seconds. Failed to obtain the certificate. We felt that we needed to try again, and this time we completed the change in 7.4 sec! Yes! We got our certificate!!!

We finally got the the Science center and got into the Science of Speed exhibition - it was fun! Above we learnt a lot too. Will surely visit it again!

We later had dinner at the Coliseum Cafe and Hotel (yes, that pre-war restaurant along Jalan TAR). We had good food and a good time as well.




What about mum? Let's put it this was, we were tired and exhausted even before we reached home - except for mum, it was relaxing for her.


We were so tired, we fell asleep before 11pm.


Great weekend!
