We are one of the early bird to have purchased the annual pass for Legoland about 6 months ago. At that time we actually got it pretty cheap, as compared to the current price. We could have visited the park 2 months ago but we have no hurry since we got the annual pass. In order to beat the school holiday which starts in a week's time, we decided to make a trip to Legoland.
It was about 2pm that we made the decision to go. The moment we drove out of the carpark, it started to pour pretty heavily. We just hope that the rain will stop when we reached there. We took the route via Tuas Checkpoint as the LTA webcam showed that it has lesser traffic as compared to Woodlands Checkpoint. True enough, we got past the checkpoint quite smoothly, same for the Malaysian custom. From there, it's only a 10mins drive. Just before we turned into Legoland, there is a mall called Mall of Medini. An advice for those who will be driving there, the open car park at this mall is nearer to Legoland than the actual Legoland carpark.
When we reached, the rain indeed had stopped though the sky was still pretty dark. There was no queue at the annual pass redemption counter. Just that the processing was quite slow. It's good to be there after the rain as the weather was very cool. I had heard feedback from many people that I need to be prepared for the heat, which was not applicable today. :-)
Jerlene had been very excited because she had heard from her friends about Legoland. On Monday, it's her turn to tell her class how fun it was in Legoland. First we went to the centre of the theme park where there were many prominent buildings and structures from around South East Asia all made up of Lego bricks.
Soon after, it started to drizzle so we decided to go somewhere indoor. There was an indoor hall where tons of Lego bricks awaits the kids. We spent quite sometimes there before going to the nearby 4D show. We queued for about 30mins and fortunately, we had some titbits to entertain my two angels, especially Javier.
After the 4D show, we went next door where there was an observatory ride. After queuing for sometimes, there seemed to be some technical glitch where the door was unable to open with people inside. The technician came few minutes later. Though the door managed to be open, they need to do a few rounds of test run before allow people to enter the ride again. So we waited for another 15mins before we can take the ride. This ride allow us to have a 360 degree view of the entire theme park.
We then went to a few more rides where only Jerlene can play because Javier is under age. We can see Javier was a bit disappointed that he cannot play some of the rides. However, he seemed to understand the reason. When I asked him why he cannot play, he actually said "I am too short"
We then went to visit other parts of the park. Jerlene and Javier had such a fun time in the playground. They kept running and climbing.....in the end, Javier had no more strength to climb anymore. He seemed to even walked funny......lol.......
As the sky slowly turned dark, those mini buildings and structures started to light up.
We managed to play a few more rides, such as the fireman ride and junior driving lesson before the park closed. Actually just before it closed, we were queuing at a remote boat ride. However, there was again a technical glitch and they decided to close it. We thought they may have purposely close the ride because it's very near to park closing time, and there was still a long queue.
From Legoland, we walked to the adjacent Mall to have our dinner. Jerlene requested for KFC. By the time we reached home, it was past 10pm. Overall it was a great day and everyone enjoyed it. I think it's good to have an annual pass so that there is no stress even when the queue was long.
