Hip Hip Hooray... When my Mom told me that me and my brother were selected as Resort World Genting Young Bloggers and Ambassadors, we were so happy and excited looking forward to the event. Genting is our main holiday destination as every year once or twice, my Mom and Dad will bring us there as the air was cooling and refreshing, a great destination for us as a family. We also enjoyed the family rides, food and shopping.

Mr Paul Baker said, ‘Family is at the heart of
everything we do at Resorts World Genting—and children are the focal point of
many of our themes. In our role as entertainment hub, we take pride in
inspiring dreams, in encouraging bonding and harmony among families, and in
using art and culture to promote growth and sustenance among the young. That is
because healthy and happy children are a relevant feature of every thriving
community.’ The festival, to be held till June 14, promises a whole range of
activities that are sure to keep the young ones happy, from stage performances
to movie screenings, to magic workshops. I truly enjoyed myself so much here.

After the official opening and certificate given. we check-in at our hotel room and then proceed to sumptuous meal at the Coffee Terrace. I had a great meal there and my favourite is the ABC soup. A simple dish but it is delicious with lots of chickens, potatoes and carrots.
