Candy Christmas@Midvalley Megamall

The theme for Midvalley Megamall Christmas celebration this year is "The Sweetest Christimas Ever". It was indeed a very sweet affair at Midvalley with the Centre Court dressed to the nines with lip smacking looking lollypops, candy canes, gingerbread houses, biscuits and sweets and candies of various shapes and sizes. With all these goodies surrounding you and the fabulous lightings, decorations, and Christmas songs playing in the air, you just can't help getting into the festive and merry mood.

We stumbled upon Santa and Mrs. Claus posing for photos with the crowd. Tickets for the 12.30pm photo session were still on sale and we found out that proceeds from the RM10 ticket are to be donated to Rumah K.I.D.S. And again, being the indulgent parents, and knowing that the money is for a good cause anyway, we bought a ticket and joined the queue. It wasn't nearly as long as the queue at 1 Utama for the Mickey Mouse Clubhouse photo session and our turn came pretty soon. People from Foto Shangri-La, a co-sponsor of the event, were on hand to distribute cute little moose hair bands and Christmas hats and to snap the photo. Yiu Yiu also got a small gift from Santa comprising of a little Kittycat notepad and a voucher for a single scoop Haagen Daaz ice-cream. No prizes for guessing who benefited from the Haagen Daaz voucher! Muahahahaha… The photo developed by Foto Shangri-La turned out really nice – a result of having professional photographer and sophisticated equipment.

All in, it was a truly enjoyable outing, and one of the most worthwhile returns on a RM10 investment.
