Lilypie 2nd Birthday Ticker

Wedding Anniversary, Sembunyi Spa & Transformers

September 12, 2007

"I was beaming at the diamond bracelet on my wrist, awesome….exactly the one I wanted. Gonna show this off to Mom - make her green with envy…Muahahaha!!!"

**smack!!!….ouch!!

I woke up and saw little Zoe sitting on the bed beside me, smiling cause she just practice her smacking on me. Its already almost 9 am…alamak!
Lucky thing Zoe woke me up cause I have a 11 am appointment at Sembunyi Spa…kekeke

After we hurried to prepare ourselves, we took Zoe to her nanny so that she would be taken care of while we go and indulge in all the activities plan for the day.
Note to Zoe - Mommy sorry ar…wait till u r older and can enter the spa, we all go together gather..ok!? Hehehe….

We had our breakfast in Bandar Puteri Puchong, this new place that have been transformed from a lonely kopitiam (previously known as Lou Fu Tzi) to a bustling tim sum restaurant. It was our first time there. The food is really good and especially the egg tart! It’s lip-smacking!!

What good food to start a wonderful day…heh!

It was already almost half past ten when we finish our breakfast, gotta rush to the spa now cause we wanna try out all their other facilities. We reach Sembunyi Spa in Cyberview Lodge a while later and on the way hubby remarked that even on a holiday like this, he still have to use the road to office…hahaha

Once we are there, the feeling was just like we are somewhere far away (again!?)…
Sembunyi Spa was located at another building at the east of the resort, just a short walk away from the car park. The reception area was simple and typical of a spa, not too heavily decorated with Thai & Balinese style stuffs. We were given a choice of massage treatments for our package, 90 minutes man!! and can choose 2 types of massage for 45 minutes each. We took the aromatherapy and Balinese massage, something we are more familiar with. I love their lavendar aromatherapy oil, very soothing smell like a baby product.

The ladies and men’s facilities are separated, so we go our own ways after the reception. A lady show me the way to my locker, the steam, sauna & jacuzzi area and the bath area. Sha said I can change in the locker room, "No changing rooms!?", "This is a lady only area, you can change here ma’am". I went to change in the shower room into the olive green shorts & singlet provided. The clothes makes me look like an auntie that does cleaning job…eww! The facilities are pretty normal, just the jacuzzi was quite nice overlooking the lake. I expected a sexier looking outfit for spa la, something like a batik pareo is sexy enough.
Hubby, on the other hand was given a nicer short tights for men. Not fair.

After a 10 minutes dip in the jacuzzi, I was off to the massage session. The therapist is friendly and gave me a mint scented face towel and a little cup of ginger tea to warm the tummy before the session. The mint scented towel is refreshing!!

The massage is good, but still cannot beat the skills of those therapist in Layan Beach, Phuket. I did not even realise whether it was the aromatherapy massage or the Balinese massage…feels the same to me, the whole of 90 minutes. Felt that it ended too soon…kekeke

After the massage, I went for a swim at their pool overlooking the lake. There were leaves and flowers dropping into the pool from a tree planted beside the pool. Hmm…flower bath!? HaHaHa…

After that, another 5 minutes in the steam and 15 minutes in the jacuzzi. Off to the shower and came out looking like a cooked tomato….HaHaHa….
They should do something to the comb and tissue provided at the dressing area. The comb looks like its been sterilised in a microwave on high and they provide paper napkin for ladies to wipe face…it feels like sand paper to me emoticon

All of that makes both of us poorer by $300.

We head to Mid Valley for lunch and movie. We manage to catch Transformers!, probably the last few screening in the cinema. The movie was great and it brought back some childhood memories in a time when my brother would sold me in exchange for Optimus Prime figurine. Hmmph!!! Autobots rolls!!!! Ha Ha

That part when Sam try to convince his teacher to give him an "A" for the subject - He said, "What would Jesus do?"…HaHaHa! Very funny…He learnt well huh!?

After the movie, we went to Mamours (Planete Enfants) to pick up a toy for Zoe. Our little guilt gift for her, for being away on a holiday…again…Mommy think of u every single seconds ok…Mommy miss u…

It was a good day and by the time I wrote this, I already forgotten what we had for dinner that day…so I’ll just end here….till the next indulgence….
