Hello 2015! May this year becomes a better year for all of us, in
whatever undertakings we are pursuing or wishing.
We officially kicked off our new year by having nasi lemak with fried
chicken that morning, later dropped by at my father’s house to send off some
nasi lemak for him (my mom and brother went away for umrah, that leaves my
father alone in KL) and an hour later proceed to Planetarium Negara located in
Jalan Perdana. Just like Muzium Negara, this is hubby and kids’ first visit to
this place.
Entrance to the exhibition hall is free. There are scheduled shows at
its theatre on an hourly basis which airing different short movies. We decided
to tour the exhibition hall first and later catch the 2pm show (konon show
paling menarik as recommended by the girl at the ticket counter).
The exhibition hall is not that big. You can basically complete the
tour within an hour. Kids particularly enjoyed the Anti Gravity Room very much.
There are sections which featured how astronauts live inside their spaceship (a
toilet bowl to settle their bowel movement, a jacket which they can just slot
in themselves and sleep in upright position, etc).

Balai Cerap. Boleh tgk view KL..kalo malam baru cantik kots |

Nek umi dah sampai Stonehenge kat UK...kami sampai Stonehenge kat KL jer la hiksss |
We were done with the tour around 12.30pm, decided to stroll down the
hill towards Muzium Kesenian Islam to kill our time before the 2pm show. Much
to our surprise adult tix is selling at RM14! Uh uh tak jadikla masuk hoho. We
passed by the Masjid Negara, bought some kebab n nuggets from the street
hawkers and later climbed up the hilly path back towards the Planetarium. What
a painful journey I’d say! Di tengah kepanasan, di waktu perut sarat, di waktu
tgh lapar…uhh ala2 mendaki Seongsan Ilchubong pon ada malangnya cuaca panas dan
kami berada di Malaysia, bukan obersea haha.
The much awaited show is just so-so. Firas dozed off few minutes after
the show had started. It was very educational that I think only older kids like
Idlan can appreciate it. The show explained about each planet in our solar
system, which I bet Ammar didn’t understand even the gist of it hehe. The show
lasted for about 40 minutes, of which myself occasionally terlelap dlm teater
yg sejuk gelap tuh…mak penat ok panjat turun naik bukit tadi! Anyway tix price
for the show is RM6 (adult) and RM4 (child).
