Resorts World Mall

By | Recreation | No Comments

While everyone was going out of town for the long weekend, we stayed put in the city.. 

We went to visit the Resorts World Mall and wow, it does remind me of those gigantic malls in Vegas which connects to a Casino 🙂

Though there are already a few shops and restaurants opened, there are many more to come…like Our Very Own, Essenses and Silver Vault from Rustan’s!

CWC

The CWC is only 5 minutes away from the airport.  It is so nice!  This was where the Ironman was held a week before we visited the place.  Again the place is very organized and clean.  Even if there were a lot of people, the place was clean!  You will see staff always cleaning the place….raking the sand by the lake.  

The kids really enjoyed.  Though the villa was very tempting for us to stay in, have a massage, use the jacuzzi and just relax,  we of course hung out in the lake and watched the kids.

Love this ad/video

This is another accomodation nearest the CWC- it is called the tiki huts.  This is the cheapest among all though bathrooms are common

There are tents by the wakeboarding area for eating and for spectators

The launching area

You need to line up and wait for your turn

It goes around one full circle…if you fall somewhere in between, you have to swim to shore and walk back which could be quite tiring carrying the board

For beginners like my 9 year old, you can do knee boarding

Ice Skating in Mall Of Asia

By | For kids, Recreation | 7 Comments

After arriving from Japan, my son kept nagging me about going ice skating!  Ever since he ice skated in Tokyo, he was looking for an ice skating ring everywhere we went around Tokyo and Osaka.  Sine we did not find any, I promised him i would take him when we got home 🙂

 So, I took him to Mall of Asia!  It was a school day when we went and Javier did not start school yet so we had the place almost all to ourselves!  It was around P 300.00 plus per person for the whole day..unlimited exit and entry – meaning you can skate, eat, skate, go shopping, skate again …..We did not bring any winter outfits but apparently you need to be dressed for the occassion because it was so cold

After 20 minutes, he gave up…. I thought it was a waste of money since we did not even use up an hour. 

But then again…….

A day spent with my son…… and maybe it will be something he will remember when he looks back at his childhood…It’s ALL WORTH IT!
