My new favorite mall is the Bangsar Village II. It's just beside the Bangsar Village Shopping Center.
We found this mall by mistake. Yesterday we went to Gymboree for EJ's class. I told the taxi driver to bring us to Bangsar Village. All the while I thought there was only one shopping mall there. It turned out it's a commercial village with the two Bangsar Malls (the old one and the new one) plus other restaurants nearby.
The taxi driver stopped at Bangsar Village II. I thought it was still the old one, only we were coming from another entrance. I was surprised to find out that this is not the building where Gymboree is located. But I was glad to have stumbled upon this.
The mall is new (I pressume) and the stores inside have nice designs. I saw a lot of stores I want to check out next time I visit.
Here's their Christmas Tree made from recycled 1.5L bottle of softdrinks. I love it!
We found out that the two malls (old and new) are connected via a skybridge. So after having ice cream at Haagen Dazs, we went to Gymboree in time for EJ's class.
EJ didn't take a nap prior to his class. I thought he'd throw a tantrum inside. Thankfully he didn't. Although it took about two minutes before he joined in.
When the "auntie" showed a picture of flowers and asked the kids what it was, EJ shouted "A flower!". Hehehe
He finished his class and eagerly participated in all the activities. Well, except when it was time to kiss Gymbo the clown - Gymboree's mascot. He's still a little bit scared of mascots and clowns.
After EJ's class we went around the mall. EJ fell asleep and hubby had to sit down. We had coffee at Starbucks and waited until EJ woke up.
He woke up after an hour. We headed to the taxi stand outside. Glad that the rain has let up. We decided to take a taxi until KL Sentral only because we know that most drivers won't bring us to Times Square. Reason? Traffic!
So from KL Sentral we took the monorail back to Times Square. Glad we took that route. Otherwise we would have been stuck in traffic.
Before heading home we had dinner first at the newly opened Very Thai on the lower ground of Times Square. But more on that on my later post.
Tired but happy. I'm excited to go back to Bangsar Village II.

ah! i miss singing the songs from gymboree. i have 3 favorites; the parachute song, the we-love-gymbo in the tune of we will rock you, and lastly, "Gymbo the clown goes up and down, up and down, up and down." haaay!
Hehehe...I like singing it too. I wonder if we'll be singing the same song on level 6. EJ's moving to level 6 this week because he's turning 28-month this week kase.
That's great bonding time. I'm sure you and EJ always have fun during class.
The photos remind me so much of the time I used to take Yohan to The Little Gym (same concept as Gymboree).
Rachel - I actually love going to gymboree :)
