*Warning: Picture heavy!* This summer vacation is filled with short getaways to Malaysia. First Tioman, then a day trip to Desaru, then a 3D2N to Sunway Lagoon (which I haven’t blogged about – shame on me) and then finally another 3D2N to Cameron Highlands. I haven’t been to Cameron Highlands for more than 10 years…
Read Part 1 here. After leaving the Ostrich Farm we made our way to the Desaru Fruit Farm. The Desaru Fruit Farm is about 160 acres (= 80 soccer fields, or 240 of SunHo’s house in LA).We had a guided tour by the farm employees, who took us on a 45-minute walk in the tourist…
Too many pictures to post, so I’m splitting a day tour into two posts. ———– My family and I went on a day tour to Desaru, Malaysia. The itinerary includes an Ostrich Farm, the Desaru Fruit Farm, firefly watching and two meals, lunch and dinner. We set off from Singapore via the 2nd Link to…
I suppose one of the highlights of the trip is the Renggis Island snorkelling trip. The package includes all the snorkelling gear and the short boat trip over to the island and it costs RM40 a person, and is supposedly for 1 hour. Initially we wanted to take up the longer package (3 hours) that…
We got to Tioman by coach and ferry. First we took the coach from Singapore to Mersing, which takes about 3 hours. From Mersing, we took a 2-hour ferry to Pulau Tioman. Pulau Tioman is big by my terms. It measures about 20km by 11km, maybe 1/3 the size of Singapore. Most of the island…
I am back from Tioman, sunburnt but very happily so! I stayed at Berjaya Tioman Suites, an RCI timeshare serviced apartment cluster 10 minutes from the Berjaya Tioman Golf and Spa Resort. I got the stay free from a magazine subscription promotion, so we only paid for transport, dining and other expenses. We were still…
San Francisco. Where I started and ended my trip. Where I left my heart at. Where I love the most out of all the places I visited. San Francisco is beautiful. I’ll let the pictures do the talking. (PS: I just posted 100 pictures on Facebook, check it out there.) The Seven Painted Ladies –…
I’ve been putting off blogging about LA because I don’t know how to strike a balance between telling the truth and showing you only the pretty sights. In actual fact, LA is a shitty place. At least Hollywood is a shitty place. Nothing like the glitz and glamour we see on TV. Those are only…
Seaworld. Seaworld. One of the main reasons why I went to the US. To see killer whales, duh. So as you can expect, I took copious pictures of killer whales, which I will hereby unload on all of you, whether you like it or not. First, the random sea critters I don’t fancy too much:…
Disneyworld is so big it warrants a post dedicated to it. Disneyworld is apparently the size of two Manhattan islands, or the size of the city of San Francisco. That. Is. Ginormous. It consists of 4 main parks, of which I visited 3 – Magic Kingdom, Epcot and Animal Kingdom. We stayed at one of…
