One of Cass' greatest desires is to learn ice-skating. For more than a year, she saved money to pay for her ice-skating lessons. She did odd jobs for me and her dad as well as saved money from ang pow collected during CNY and birthdays.
Hubs finally had the time to bring Cass for her first ice-skating lesson on Malaysia Day, a public holiday. Cass had earlier called the Blue Ice Snow Park @ Pavillion Bukit Jalil to book an appointment for ice-skating lesson but was told to walk-in to try her luck as it was a public holiday and all the slots were already taken up. If she's lucky, she may get a slot.
As expected Cass didn't manage to secure a slot for the skating lesson. However, she and Sherilyn went for casual ice-skating @ RM35 for 2 hours. While they skated, hubs and I had breakfast and checked out the mall. It was our first time at Pavillion Bukit Jalil, a newly opened mall.
We walked quite a bit before we finally found the Blue Ice Snow Park. The mall is very huge and if it's your first time to the mall, it's a tad difficult to locate the skating rink.

Very good exercise for us - it took us a good 15-20 minutes of brisk walking from the car park to the skating rink. |
|
Very much smaller than the skating rink at Sunway Pyramid but we prefer Blue Ice Snow Park as it's new and the facilities and skating shoes are newer and cleaner. |

The last time the girls went ice-skating was 3 years ago, before the pandemic, with Raelyne their cousin from Singapore. |

There's a huge screen outside Blue Ice Snow Park that life screens the activities in the skating rink.

Sherilyn skates better than her sister, but ice-skating is not her jam. |

The BBQ beef teriyaki toast that hubs ordered was super scrumptious. Juicy BBQ beef slices wedged between crispy toasts topped with a jiggly egg and cheese. And you don't have to worry about messing up your hands as disposable gloves (packed in a tiny cute bag) are provided so that you can enjoy your killer toast. The coffee was superb too. |

Crispy Korean fried chicken. For the first time I really enjoyed holding my piece of fried chicken with my hands at a cafe as I needn't have to worry about having oily hands afterwards. |
|
After the girls were done ice-skating, we brought them to Oppa Toast again for them to have their breakfast. |
|
Cass ordered egg toast and Korean hotdog. |
|
Right after leaving Oppa Toast, we segued into Sedap to have roti canai and satay! |

Revenge feasting after almost 2.5 years of modest eating, mostly at home 😂 |
|
The girls wanted to try IlaoIloa's Milo froyo, only available for one day on 16 Sept as it's Malaysia Day. Their verdict - not much Milo taste but nonetheless still refreshing and yums.
The girls wanted to check out Tsutaya Books, a popular bookstore originating from Japan but what we saw before our eyes was jaw-dropping. The queue into the bookstore was at least 500 meters long! This is the first Tsutaya Books in South East Asia.
|
Before we left, we had our lunner at Dai Cha Dim. While we waited for the food to arrive, Cass and Sherilyn quickly darted off to Tsutaya Books as it's just opposite the restaurant. They were not about to give up trying their luck to step into the bookstore. Fortunately the queue moved pretty quickly and they managed to get into the bookstore.

We clocked up almost 10k steps after spending over 4 hours at Pavillion Bukit Jalil. My total number of steps for the day was over 14k. |
