View from the Window
During our road trip in Malaysia we stopped by Port Dickson on the way back and checked into the Avillion Cove Hotel for a night. The view from our hotel room was really spectacular. We were given the top floor of the hotel and I could enjoy the majestic sunset just looking out of the window.
Part of the view from the side
For a moment it seem that I was in some far off country gazing out of the window looking at the serene sea below.
The room
The kids however were less keen in the view from the window. They were more keen to check out the room instead.
The other side of the room
To be more correct they were more interested in unpacking our luggage and looking for their swim suits so they can hit the hotel pool.
Happy Kids at the Pool

I remember travelling with my parents: the swimming pool was always my priority, too! I hope your family had a very enjoyable holiday. A road trip through Malaysia sounds fascinating.

Awesome pictures, as always. The view from the room makes or breaks it for us parents, doesn’t it? The pool makes or breaks it for the kids. If you get both, you get the perfect getaway.

I love the view here. I remember our vacation in Thurder Bird Resort in La Union. The bed is so huge. Kids would love to roll around on it after a tiring swimming activity
