๐ Hello Hive Community Members!
Hey everyone from the Hive Fam! ๐
Hope you had a fabulous weekend! Today marks the final day of our HiveFest trip โ yes, time to head back home ๐กโ๏ธ
If you haven't yet, check out my previous adventure where I shared the crazy ride to HiveFest! ๐๐จ Letโs pick up from our landing in beautiful Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia ๐ฒ๐พ and continue the story!
๐ฌ Off the Plane, Finally!
After touching down safely, we began the airport marathon walk ๐โโ๏ธ to reach the pickup bus.
And wow โ couldnโt resist clicking that sunrise pic ๐โจ shining right over the airplane wings. Mesmerizing, isnโt it?
๐ Airport Metro Ride โ Not a Bus! ๐
Confession time: I initially called it an airport bus, but nope! It was actually a metro ride inside the airport.
In India ๐ฎ๐ณ, we usually take shuttle buses ๐, so this sleek metro surprised me! ๐คฃ
๐ Another Sunrise Click!
Couldnโt resist one more sunrise shot ๐
The sky was glowing above the rows of planes โ a picture-perfect airport morning moment.
By now my eyes were begging for sleep ๐ด but my excitement said โNope, HiveFest awaits!โ
Body: tired ๐ฅฑ | Mind: energetic ๐คฉ | Neck: in pain ๐ | Hygiene level: zombie ๐งโโ๏ธ
Every second of exhaustion felt so worth it for HiveFest love โค๏ธ
โ๏ธ Airport Exploration Mode: ON! ๐
The airport was HUGE โ a total playground for aviation lovers ๐ฉ๏ธ
I felt like that baby meme gif going โwoooowโ every 2 seconds ๐คฉโฌ๏ธ
๐ The Check-In Dilemma
Uh-oh! Check-in wasnโt until 3 PM ๐ฑ
After that long trip, all we wanted was a hot shower ๐ฟ and a comfy bed ๐๏ธ.
Reception didnโt allow early check-in, so plan B โ food hunt mode activated ๐ด
We dropped our luggage off and dashed to Banana Leaf ๐ restaurant at Suria KLCC Mall.
๐ Hungry Humans at Banana Leaf ๐
Ordered Dosa & Idli because comfort food always wins ๐ฅฐ
(These pics are from Google โ because when hunger strikes, camera goes off ๐คฃ)
They offered a combo with a drink choice โ Milo, Coffee, or Nescafรฉ โ
Of course, I went for Milo... but man, it was sugar overload ๐ซโก
๐จ Back to Hotel โ Finally!
Returned by 11:40 AM, begged for early check-inโฆ and voila! ๐ We made it!
Sure, the view outside wasnโt amazing (blocked by another building ๐
) but who cares โ there was a shower, bed, and peace.
Post clean-up, ate some homemade food ๐ฒ and crashed like hibernating bears ๐ป๐ค until 5 PM.
๐ค Meeting with @techcoderx
Checked Telegram and realized most folks were already having fun at HiveFest ๐
Luckily, @techcoderx came by for a meetup ๐
We discussed our presentations, exchanged feedback ๐ก (his advice: โFewer slides, more storyโ), and had a solid idea jam session. Later, we even went for groceries ๐. Productive & fun evening!
๐ฌ Wrapping Up Day 1
And that wraps up Day 1 of our HiveFest journey!
From zero sleep to sunrise clicks, food hunts, and tech talks โ it was a rollercoaster ๐ข
Stay tuned for Day 2: The Real HiveFest Kickoff ๐

I'm glad the first day went well, except for not being able to make an early reservation. There are two things I'm most curious about regarding Hivefest: first, meeting new Hive users, and second, exploring that city and country. I hope you get to do both. And of course, learning more about Hive and witnessing its development.
Yep
Did all three - meet, know & visit
Thank you for reading my post & dropping a comment @incublus
