Hawai Water Park Malang

Back in Singapore now…. We had such a fun and relaxing holiday last week in Malang! This time we didn’t really do much… We mainly just stayed at home, went out only to visit relatives or to go to eating places…..

We managed to go to Hawai Water Park, though. It’s a brand new attraction in Malang, just opened last month.

We went there last Tuesday. We arrived at around 2 o’clock in the afternoon.
