...Sambung from Part 1

Sampai kat Ibis Budget Trafford Road tu dapat tau tak boleh check-in lagi.. dalam 1 hour lagi.. We decided untuk tunggu je at the lobby and discuss our itinerary.. Lepas la 2 cup of hot chocolate for Adam baru kitorang dapat check-in.. ohh.. hot chocolate sedap yehh.. Hot chocolate ni beli kat vending machine Ibis..

our room

Bilik Ibis budget ni ok.. simple je.. ade double decker bed.. toilet & shower asing.. tv but takda dressing table.. die just letak table and a bench.. and takda closet.. just a small coat hangers.. okla.. but we get a good view.. untuk Adam laa.. dapat dia tengok tram yang lalu everytime.. sebab our room mengadap one of the tram stop..

Ok.. lepas freshen-up and brunch.. kitorang keluar balik for our main itinerary in Manchester.. Old Trafford tour! Ticket untuk tour termasuk sekali museum.. tapi since kitorang dah lambat for our group tour.. kitorang skip dulu museum.. lepas habis tour baru back to museum..

The funny thing about this picture is.. lepas ambik gambar ni Adam cakap.. "Mama, mana semua orang ni? why takde orang?" at first rasa macam soalan biasa sampai la ajak dia bangun to follow the whole group.. dia cakap "Eh.. Adam nak tengok football ni.. Where are we going??" Only that I realised yang dari masuk stadium dia dok ingat nak tengok game.. kesian anak mama...no wonder he make himself comfortable at the seat..

Kitorang dapat pegi all the places in the stadium.. all 4 sides of the stadium.. and pegi VIP room, players lounge area.. tunnel.. media centre.. hot seat.. and also VIP seats..

 Dekat East Stand ni MU dedicate for the lost of their team in Munich.. tahun 1958.. aircrash.. even a Tunnel named Munich tunnel..

Tadi kan kata nak pegi masuk museum after tour? bila kitorang habis tour je.. rupanya museum dah tutup.. melepas.. tapi kitorang masuk MU Megastore.. takda beli apa pon.. just tengok-tengok.. tapi beli la fridge magnet as a collection..

 

 

 

 

After the Old Trafford.. kitorang ingat nak go for a drive in Manchester.. just to get the feel.. tapi rasa sangat mengantuk.. so kitorang balik hotel dengan semangat nak berjalan-jalan malam nanti.. Only to be awaken by a call from kawan Dude tanye how was our day.. and guess what?? masa tu dah midnight!! kira haritu habis macam tu je.. rugi!

Fee untuk Old Trafford stadium tour : £18 (adult) & £12 (child)

Tapi kalau ada MU member card dapat lagi less.. kitorang guna kad kawan Dude.. so jimat sikit di situ..
