Almost every weekend, there would be an exhibition or two in town. Last weekend, it was the second weekend of the Home Decoration Expo at KL Convention Centre. Yes, it was a second weekend, with different exhibits and theme over the couple of weekend.
The evening we went was more on home appliances and decorations - renovations being the theme in the previous weekend. Anita had a clear idea what we wanted to look for.
She wanted mattress for the main bedroom, a small bed for Irfan, preferably one convertible to a sofa. She also was looking for a dryer - the one now recently broke down - and an outdoor weatherproof sofa for the balcony.
The Serta mattress must come with the sheep, otherwise I would not be buying!
Far too many sofa on show
Not really sure how useful this would be ...
Juicery ....The expo was huge. We only managed to cover less than half of the vendors. And we got to have a look at what we planned and much more.
We ended up with a couple of purchases and plenty of contacts. Anita bought a wall porcelain painting and an automatic self-opening garbage bin for the kitchen. Fun stuff.
The painting would be sent to the apartment next week, and I ended up hauling the bin home.
This one was quite interesting ...
And the bin was ours ...

Not really a fan of the fans ...
This one was rather nice ...I also had a look at a portable HEPA filter for under RM 2K. Very reasonable I thought, especially with a prolonged warranty and cheap consumables. Might have a closer look at the vendor's showroom in the future. Could do with those for the lounge and Idlan's bedroom.
It was a fruitful outing on the whole and certainly one of the better expo I had been to. Best to come prepared for a long walk. We came well in the late afternoon and before long Anita was already starving. I had also had a long day at the office prior.

That would probably the best way to describe where the place it. I discovered it during the recent 500px photowalk, located right next to Suria KLCC near the Mandarin Oriental entrance.
What was there? A piece of greenery with plenty of trees right in the middle of town, shielded from the stress of the streets nearby. Only a 5 minutes stroll to Suria, but it appeared miles away. More secluded than the often crowded KLCC Park, and the trees provided a nice shade from the sun while allowing the cool breeze to pass by. There were a few benches there as well as some set of stairs for you to take a breather while having some latte maybe.
A quick internet search did not shed any light into the place. There was a small Facebook page but with not much detail. I read that there may have been some art event taken place there, but again, not much was learned. Maybe somebody wanted to keep it hidden and tranquil. But I was glad that I found it ...
