The boys’ first MRT ride

When we were in Bangkok earlier this month, we relied mostly on their BTS Skytrain to go around the city. 

The boys loved riding on that very much that once we are back home in Malaysia, they requested to go for a ride on our very own MRT. Little Ayden find it odd that we don’t take the train here at home but do so when we are abroad. I had to explain to him that we have a driver (the Daddy ) here but none when we are abroad hence the public transportation.

The Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) Sungai Buloh-Kajang (SBK) line was launched last Monday and we took advantage of the 50% off ticket price to bring the boys to KL.

Darling checking with the staffs if it is still possible for us to go to Bukit Bintang and back on time before they close. 

We were told it is possible but we won’t have much time to spare at Bukit Bintang. After discussing with the boys, they agreed that we will make a quick dash just so they can ride on the train 

The staff was very helpful to guide us to purchase our tickets. 

Little rascal 

Finally in the MRT

This boy really enjoyed the ride especially when the train went underground.

The train picked up speed as it went into the tunnel much to the passengers’ delight. Cheers can be heard throughout like as if we just won the Thomas Cup or something 

Bukit Bintang MRT Station is just across the road from The Cube, Bukit Bintang. 

We walked to Pavilion and enjoyed the city night view for a little while before making our way back to the station to purchase our return ticket. 

The escalator at Bukit Bintang MRT station heading to Platform 2 to Sg Buloh is one of the longest and steepest escalators I have come across. Not for the faint hearted who is afraid of heights but thank goodness I am okay with it 

We just barely caught the last train back but it was worth it as the boys really enjoyed the ride.

I told the boys, when they grow up, they’ll be riding the MRT a lot as I believe it is not worth driving by then. We’ll be traveling in the Klang Valley like Singaporeans do in Singapore as their MRT line brings you to just about anywhere.
