Day 2

 Breakfast was catered for in the hotel and there was a huge variety to choose from. Still suffering from pain, I kickstarted my day with warm porridge, an oozing omelette, toasted bread with salad and bake beans with a cup of hot tea. After breakfast, it was time for more shopping and touring.
Breakfast Spread @ at hotel

With reference from trip advisor on the places to visit, we picked Central Flea Market. Out of the hotel, we went to the taxi stand counter to grab a cab. There was an admin fee to be paid to the taxi counter and they directed us to our designated cab. We boarded a blue color cab on a meter charge. Clean, neat and air conditioned, the taxi uncle readily shared with us on the nearby area which we can go to.

However, we only engaged his service for a one way trip to Central Flea Market as we wanted leisure browsing. 

From Central Flea Market, it was just a short walking distance to Chinatown. We walked for roughly 5-10 minutes. It would have been more enjoyable if it wasn't under the hot sun.

1. Central Flea Market
-> Clothes, Accessories, Tibits and Snacks, Art Corner, Souvenirs
2. Chinatown 
-> Mainly Purses, Bags, Wallet, Apparels, Sunglasses, Pen, Food
3. Kota Raya Complex
- Shopping mall

Because of the hot weather, we mingled around Chinatown for a short while before we went to the nearby shopping mall, Kota Raya Complex for aircon and a short break before heading back to Berjaya Time Square. 

Cab counter was readily available just at the entrance of Kota Raya Complex (admin fee applied). 

 Berjaya Times Square is very big shopping mall which we got lost on our first day. We went back again to explore and we found the theme park. However, we only stood at the outside for some photos before heading off somewhere else.

 1. Berjaya Time Square West and East Wing
-> Yuki Sou, reminds me of Mini Sou.

2. Berjaya Times Square Theme Park
-> An indoor amusement park for both kids and adults

3. A food corner and kueh corner within the shopping mall

Within the shopping mall, there were plenty of food to choose from. From snacks to a full course meal, you name it, you find it. The only obstacle would be to locate the actual location. 


Our Lunch and Dinner
- Ramen @ Shopping mall
- Delicious Kueh made from fresh coconut
- Indonesia Cuisine @ Shopping mall

After food and shopping, we head back to our hotel where our room at the non-smoking zone is ready for us to check in. The bed were firm and with (finally bought) panadol, I got a good night sleep throughout.
