Van Gogh Alive

Today is the day we head to Pavillion Bukit Jalil. It's our first time going to this mall. Woke up around 9am. We had nasi lemak which Ashley Kor-kor had bought from a nearby stall. When Uncle Dennis was ready, off we went in 2 cars.

We really had no idea on what to eat for lunch and finally settled on this Japanese noodles shop. Wow!



Enjoying her noodles
Then we walked a bit then split into two groups: going for the show and going for a car ride to have a look at the local colleges. 

It was an interesting experience, with many photo opportunities. You took my phone and had a heyday taking videos and photographs. There was also a video showcasing his artwork through the years, where we could see how his style evolved over time and his state of mind was at that time.

We then finished the 40 minute video and headed out to the souvenir shop (where you got a Starry Starry Night magnet). 
Next, we queued to enter the immersive experience section. Kor-kor took many pictures of you.. which you loved posing for her:
The man controlling the crowd gave you this basket for your photo ops
Then we had our "portrait painted":

Here  is a picture of the tags we were given upon our entry into the first exhibit:
When we were finally done, we headed off to meet the boys at another location for drinks.
