Bangkok – Day 2
December 30th, 2009 · No Comments · Trips
Did some work today. Walk about to see some customers. After which, we walked around Chinatown. Saw a roadside stall that sells “Pek Kee” crabs, those that are “banned” in Singapore, those that our grandparents loved to eat. They bought 2 bottles full and decided to bring it back to Singapore.

Went around the beach this morning. Had a nice breakfast too. See the pix. After sorting out some stuff, we took a 10 hour car ride back to Dhaka. Halfway, our car brakes had some issues. Stopped by the workshop. The workshop there opens 24 hours! The driver is really something, but many times, can [...]

China Trip – Day 7
December 21st, 2009 · No Comments · Trips
Today, the tour of Beijing begins. Our hotel is located in the middle of a hutong 胡同，so they have a rickshaw to ferry customers to the main road to get a cab. But it was a nice relaxing walk, so we walked, and the kids sat on the rickshaw. We went to the Forbidden [...]

Today, we were going to take it easy. Daddy suggested to go 秀水 for shopping first, so that we have time to try the clothes in the hotel room, and have time to go back for exchange if the size doesn’t fit. So we woke up a bit later. The hotel provided buffet breakfast. I [...]
China Trip – Day 5
December 19th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Trips
I read about this Siberian Tiger Park, so I “insisted” on going, since we didn’t have a chance to see the ice festival. Turns out, the trip to the tiger park was SPECTACULAR! The tigers are free roaming, barricaded by metal fences. We were in a bus, but the tigers can come up right next [...]
