Up at 830am, well rested though i still feel lazy. Hehe. We had our breakfast at the hotel before setting off to The Lost World.
We arrived at The Lost World at about 930am but just look at crowd. The theme park opened at 10am. Admission fees: RM38/adult & RM32/child, 12 years old & below. Children below 90cm free though. However, for guest staying at Heritage Hotel, we got a discount @ RM34/adult & RM30/child. We paid for 2 adults & 1 child. Rachel? Well, she got it FOC as she is just slightly above 90cm but we kept quiet lah.
They did not allow the customers to bring outside food & drinks. The security did a very tough check on all bags brought in. One customer queue-ing in front of me got his food confisicated & a RM2 summon. I find it ridiculous but rules are rules.
After about an hour inside the children's pool, we went over to played some rides & games. Both kids got a fur toy. Per token = RM2. Depending on the type of games played, some games could cost more than RM2, meaning at least 3 or 5 tokens were needed. Tokens were not included as part of the admission fees paid.
This was the petting zoo. We saw many small creatures such as racoons, rabbits, pocupines, peacocks,birds, goats, sheep, etc. 
After more walking, more games & more water fun, we stopped for lunch inside the Rainforest Cafe. Nothing much of interest. Maybe Maggie mee special? Haha.
Some ice cream treat for the kids & we watched a lion dance performance. By 5pm, yes 5pm, the kids were worn out & we went back to our hotel for a bath & some rest. Well, just a little rest.Soon we went out again for dinner. Remember i mentioned about the Lou Wong Tauge Chicken? Well, i waited ard for a table while hubby parked his car. To my disappointment, the waiter announced to those standing around waiting for tables that there was no more chicken. Only left tauge & noodles. Haiz....there goes my hope of trying this recommended dish.
Nevertheless, we tried some other restaurants, coffee shops, cafes but all were equally crowded. We saw Hainanese Chicken Rice & decided to have that for our dinner. We were able to find some empty tables when hubby spotted a open air roadside food stalls (something like our Singapore's Smith Street) selling all varities of food.

We hopped over where we decided to have tze char. We ordered salt eggs crab, stingray, can't remember what else. Cost: RM140+. We then walked around the nearby stores as we wanted to buy a longevity peach made of sugar for praying. Nope, no chance. We suspected it could be Ipoh people were mostly Cantonese so they may not use longevity peach for praying, hence no production.
So its back to the hotel for a good night rest. Opps...look at the time. Its close to 11pm.
Enjoy the below videos.
