Day 12 - Ipoh

Today we went to Lost World of Tambun theme park. It's not a huge theme park but it's got a bit of everything and is built against the rocky mountains which are spectacular themselves. The water slides were out first port of call and they were lots of fun! We then moved on to some rides, a small rollercoaster (probably the scariest I've been on because it was so old and rickety) swinging chairs (nearly made me spew) and pirate ship (we made Lockie take Charlie and Lockie nearly spewed). After that we had to sit in a shallow pool for a bit to cool down and stop spinning 😉 We then went to visit all the animals, my favourite were the Macau birds, and the boys got to feed a hippopotamus! In the evening we visited the luminous forest and the hot spring pools which were all lit up and just stunning 🤩 At 9pm we watched the fire show and it was absolutely amazing. The amount of kerosene (or whatever they put in their mouth) can not be good for you in the amounts those guys were doing! It seemed to go on forever and even Steve was into it because they were playing some pretty heavy music! It was definitely the highlight of the day. We arrived back at the room at 10pm and hit the hay 😴
