PINKYLEONA

I am also looking for something different from what we had in Malaysia.. this looks great, but quite pricey and not age-appropriate to my son hahah

Of course, he is still obsessed with Toy Story, he picked up another Mr Potato Head 

We actually took many many photos and videos, all these is enough for a blogpost, aye?

Planned to buy myself a longchamp & perfume but the design is so-so to me at that time. My vision is to buy something cheap and is a Parisien brand!

Of course, I dislike places where I had to queue.. so nope, skipped anything required waiting..

Our hotels to our top visited locations as follows:

(1) Carrefour City (this is a must-visit since I bought mineral water, milk, fruits, halal chicken & sweets here!)

(2) New Jawad Longchamp (had our first and most nights here -dine in or tapau)

(3) Carette (must visit cafe, I love Carette!)

(4) Palace du Trocadero (we can watch Eiffel Tower every day, day & night!)

Euseff has previously flown locally, but this was his first time in an international flight. Funny, the first time, we "try" a 14-hours flight! haha

I have heard about the Butterfly Effect before, and I thought it was provided by Malaysia Airlines (MAS). It was actually by Malaysian Airport (various airlines flier may enjoy this)

For our first time use, I went to their counter (Information Counter) and straighaway asked the staffs about this program, I believe I might need this especially to ease/facilitate matters at immigration counter. God knows how my child will behave then?

The registration was easy, but I was advised during return flight, I should enter details at the website (which I shall share later in this post)..

My son was given this lanyard, for safekeep and reuse during next flight. It should be worn at all times, to alert staffs for help (but we were well taken care of, at all times/was escorted haha).

First, we were given this calm room for rest (we have around 1hr+ until gate opening time). This is way better, than wandering around cafes/being human mop at KLIA floor! Haha. My husband took his nap here and my son is playing in the calm room for 1hr straight. Nice..

When we get into the calm room, I have no idea what number is our gate for departure! Prior to going into the calm room, the MA staffs check our boarding pass, and we were told that they would come back about 1.5hrs after to escort us to gate..

And then the following process to immigration counter (cannot take photo), and going to the other terminal by bus was escorted well! We were asked to get on the bus first, before everyone else including those in wheelchair (malu sungguh, nampak rakus sangat masuk awal)..

And we rode buggy at all times until we reached our gate! I only know our gate number the moment we arrived! Haha it was smooooooth

We are very happy with the experience, it was flawless! We are very satisfied with the service and encourage everyone who is eligible to get this service!

On our way back, I did my pre-registration at website (link above) while in Paris, and when we arrived at KLIA, a buggy waited for us at the gate! Hahahahha we feel like royal >.< they even thought they lose us because we went out late (we went to the bathroom first) hahaha

Overall, very satisfied!!!

Thank you Malaysia Airports, malaysian in very proud of you! 💗

Until next post!

It's been long until I finally have the time and courage to travel overseas (plus being busy post-pandemic), I am fully prepared (I may have overpacked a little bit for this trip hehehe)

I can consider myself a queen of packing, since I can pack only 2 bags worth of 3d2n stay for 3pax (my husband, Euseff and I), and I can pack only 1 small bag for myself (outstation alone) for 3d2n which left my colleagues in awe (I maybe include the photo of my previous history of packing later).

For this Paris 2023 trip (6 days), I packed the following :

Small bag of beauty items, but complete to me

Since we were going in the winter, I have to pack all the necessities into the biggest luggage, so we can be hands free for when I am busy holding my son hand (so my husband will be the only one in charge of this luggage). 

We have separate bag for in-flight comfort : foot stool, toys, diapers, wipes, neck pillow and few others..

The biggest worry I had when travel overseas is : are we getting enough medicine for the trip? something that works, minimizing the need of trouble overseas (thought of having to buy some meds in overseas will results in confusions, or maybe langguage barrier? and of course, to prevent an episode of going to ER in foreign country)

I am worried so much about Euseff catching cold/caught fever (due to the winter), but turned out he is TOTALLY FINE! none of the meds we bought was taken hahha what a paranoid mom.. but since we always travel to Australia without any food/meds going into the country (Australia being strict about this in their airport), this time we bring 'em all : food, meds and more.. we passed through immigration easy..

The overall trip was a success, although this is the first time Euseff is flying in long haul flight. He slept for 12 hours throughout the 14-hours flight! What a lesson to us parents that "we are never in control of this life.. trust God for how everything turned out"

Since the flying experience is flawless (going to Paris and back to KL), before even touch down to KLIA, my husband already thought about another vacation trip heheheh

Until then, please enjoy this shorter reels of mine : 

We are all happy, healthy.. and enjoy this short trip (will give reason why), I think I'll come back for another round.

Until next post!
