Back from Ho Chi Minh City

Back from a 4 days 3 nights trip to Ho Chi Minh City! It was more of a historical trip, as we mainly visited musuems, took photos with ancient buildings, and visiting the Cu Chi tunnel that's 'built' during the Vietnam war... It was an enriching trip, learnt more about Vietnam history, and experienced how cramp the Cu chi tunnel is! haha the 2nd day was most tiring, as we visited the war remnants museum and the Reunification palace, as well as the post office and the cathedral for photo taking... at night we walked down backpacker's street and we practically walked the whole day on day 2 hahah...

Met up with wy and group on day 3, to visit cu chi tunnel... it was very fun!! and most of us perspired alot until our shirts are wet! haha esp after crawling thru the tunnels... apart from cu chi tunnel, we din do much for the day, cos at night after dinner, we went Saigon riverside, but the view was disappointing.. the river was dirty.... and also cos its drizzling, we walked back to hotel soon after...

back at the hotel, spent time using the jacuzzi bathtub, feels really good hahha..

this morn after breakfast we proceed to airport, and then after getting our boarding passes we went to CT plaza opp the airport for last min shopping, and we bought instant noodles at the supermarket, cos both of us never realy buy anything during the trip...

Home sweet home!! reached home ard 5pm, had abit of bee hoon that my mum cooked, before catching a nap... woke up at 7.30 to watch Holland vs Japan... yeah my Holland won!!! so happy.. though Van Der Sar is no longer in the team, I'll still support the team!!! Though i dun think they'll be the champions, but I hope that they can at least make it to the semi-finals!

uploading the hcm photos now.. quite alot, mayb will upload part of it first... too tired alr hahha i wanna sleep!!

端午节快乐!

今天是端午节,对许多人来说,这没什么特别。顶多是吃几粒粽子罢了。确实,今时今日,还有多少人会记得端午节背后的含义?

前几天都在忙着包粽子,好多年没包了,刚开始包时,粽子很小,类似人家的红豆粽。慢慢地,就有进步了,最后的成果还算不错。当然也有包我前两年都有包的碱水粽(ki zhang)。 很快就有准备出门,启程到越南——胡志明市了!好兴奋!

Hope that 4days 3 nights is enough to cover most places in HCM, might be giving Mekong Delta a miss, since most ppl say its not worth going, perhaps will visit the river during our next trip to Cambodia...

okies, since i'll be away, i shall wish Guihao a Happy 22nd Birthday in advance! Hope you'll have great fun on this special day with your special someone =)

Great Krabi Trip!

Just got back from a 4d3n trip to Krabi with deary, zan and sis.. it was a great trip! nice snorkelling experience! managed to see alot of corals, and even clown fish! saw sea urchin also... the corals are really nice, the best of phi phi island.. the first snorkelling trip to the chicken island, poda island and tub island was disappointing cos wave was very big and cant go to a few islands... nth much to see at chicken island and poda island also...

ate alot during the trip, enjoyed eating at the roadside stalls haha thats why i enjoy going free and easy trips, with ppl who likes to eat at roadside also, else wun have the chance to try hahah.. had great fun playing Pictureka with them at night also... and also trying out the different cocktails that's forever selling at 100baht, though they specify its only on sale during happy hours.. but seems that even way past the happy hours, we still get to enjoy the offer.. guessed they really need more customers cos too many places to drink le..

today went compass with mum, shopped around, bought some food for white treasure... went tuition, den go for a jog with bro... need to work out after eating so much during the trip lol..

meetign up with the gals on sat! haha long time no meet up with so many of them.. hope we'll have an enjoyable dinner toge =) wan to discuss bout cable ski and sunway lagoon trip with them!
