.....times of refreshing.....

I remember I read a post wrote by a blogger where he lamented the lack of choices in most of the local vending machines in KL compared to Bangkok and Japan. Well, I was curious when I saw vending machines in China as I wonder what drinks they will offered. I took one at West Lake in Hangzhou and another one at a shopping mall, which I forgot where...

I guess I posted too many heavyweights posts over the last two months covering my trip to China, thus I decided to go light today or for the next few posts. Oh, you are right, I also running out of ideas to post or probably suffering from a 'withdrawal symptom' , not mental block.  I am looking for more travelogue to write, actually!!...

LOL ... I finally got some my parcel from a dear blogger , which consisted of a CD that has my favourite selection of songs and some surprise gifts and voila..and a medal too! I was not around when they delivered to me during the CNY week (or didn't even deliver as I didn't see any receipt for collection) and they send the parcel back ! This kind blogger...

Just a short post today and I thought it's great to blog about this Kajang Satay located at Dengkil R&R , while I was driving back from Ipoh to JB. I always wanted to try this satay after hearing from my relatives that it is good. However, each time I always give it a pass due to various reasons, like having our meals in nearby Seremban instead...

Practically, Ipoh town area is divided between the old town and new (not so new...) town, by the Kinta River. After strolling around the old town, I usually will drove over to the 'new' town. I have blogged about the new town before where it's becoming like a mini Jonker street with the night market around. However, it seems didn't materialise as...

Well, though there's still seven more days where we can finally declared the Chinese New Year is over, the holidays are virtually over for most of us... LOL. Yes, it's back to work today and I am sure most of you have a good week of holidays and spent quality time with your family. I was back in Ipoh as usual and like previous years, I do go around...

I just can't keep my mind off from blogging on tourism places, thanks to a month of blogging about my travelogue. Anyway, since it's Chinese New Year, here are some pixs I took while I strolled around the popular Bugis area in SG, which is fast becoming the second chinatown here. A god of fortune ushering the folks there! Lots of stalls setup...

I have finally came to the end of my travelogue covering the Jiangnam area and this will be the last post. I hope the travelogue didn't bore you guys down as it was really an intense packed tour with lots of itineraries. My family and I do enjoyed the tour very much and it's also our first time stepped onto China. Well, I definitely will visit China...

It was a rainy day when we were in Shanghai but that doesn't stopped us from walking and strolling around the popular places, guided by our tour guide. Luckily this was the 'warmest' day in our trip as the temperature was around 10 celsius, compared to those 3-8 celsius earlier in other places, LOL Thus, though it rained, we felt warm under our winter...
