Weekend Getaway to Golden Palm Tree

Right before I forget, Happy Dumpling Festival 端午节大快乐 to everyone!!! Can't even remember when was the last time I celebrate this with my family, most importantly in Malaysia, but it sure brings back loads of childhood memories. Remember to call home if you're away from your family, and stuff yourself with a big fat dumpling today :p

Speaking of family, my family & I had a blissful mini retreat at The Golden Palm Tree Iconic Resort & Spa last weekend. It supposed to be a family vacation but sis got to sit for exam and bro had to run an event, so ended up just 4 of us enjoying the ambiance of the 5 stars sea-villa...

Initially, I booked for a Canary Palm Tree via the school holiday promo package that advertised on Golden Palm Tree's Facebook page, only at RM720 per night with complimentary breakfast buffet. It's such a great deal and thing got even more awesome when the staff upgraded my room to Ivory Palm Villa upon check-in, for F.R.E.E of course which I didn't ask for. So grateful!

Now you'll say that's why Chloe is sick; she caught a cold after the swimming session. Nope! We only got into the pool for about 5 mins :'( Cause grandma was nagging unstoppably; she thinks baby shouldn't swim at all at such early age @.@ But hoh, Americans send their babies to swimming classes as early as 6 m/o leh, hmm... Btw, it's Daddy Chean who passed the viruses to her instead.
