Lexus Hibiscus Hotel in Port Dickson is a great weekend getaway for family. The hibiscus shaped hotel built above sea water impressed visitors with its infrastructure.

The hotel is well managed with hundreds of visitors flooded in especially on weekends, public holidays and school holidays. The check in queue is as long as the check out queue! So be prepared for the long waiting lines.

Below are the images of the hotel during my stay there :

Nightmare and Narrow Escape at İstanbul Sabiha Gökçen International Airport

2017-01-31T11:11:00.003-08:00

We took a flight via Turkish Airlines from Kuala Lumpur to Ataturk, and stayed a night in Istanbul for transit. On the next day, we flew from the second Airport in Istanbul, Sabiha Gökçen International Airport to Milan. We chose this flight for two reasons, it was significantly cheaper, after considering the additional hotel and transport cost, and we could have a short stopover in Istanbul to have a look at the city at night.

After checked in at Sabiha Airport, we walked to the passport control counters, and we were shocked at the view of long queue. The photo below would speak the words :

The queue was almost as long as the airport, it went from almost one end of the airport to the other end. We were talking about hundreds of people queueing to enter passport control counters. We needed to catch out flight in 1.5 hours, the view of this extra ordinary long queue raised an alarm.

Yes, it started with an alarm, and as we tried to find ways to catch our flight, it turned into nightmare ! At one point, we felt so hopeless that we could miss the flights.

We tried to seek help from a few airport officers who were standing near the queue and looking at the crowd. They all turned deaf ears against us. All they said were, "Just line up." Finally, one officer said, "Which is your airlines, go to the check in counter to ask for help." And so we did, we went back to Turkish Airline check in counter, showing our tickets and the limited time we had. Disappointedly, all she said was, "Just queue up the line." (Hint: I knew later that you could ask for Fast Track Pass from the counter. However, it may not always be helpful.)

Then, we saw there was a Fast Track Lane. However, there was no information on any board explaining how we could get into this Fast Track Lane. Then, I heard someone saying that you could buy something from the adjacent shop to get a Fast Track card / pass in order to use the Fast Track Lane. So, we tried. Unfortunately, the shopkeeper said they have given out all the Fast Track Card.

So, we went back to the very long, normal queue again, and we did the worst thing we could do, jump queue, excusing ourselves and squeezing throught the crowd, showing our boarding passes. Some travellers allow us through, some blocked us. So, we could only go a certain distance.

When we were near enough to see the Passport control counters, we saw that only ONE counter was opened, to serve these hundreds of people ! So, that was the culprit.

Then, thanked God, after seemed like ages, a few more counters opened. Not all. Only 3 out of 5 counters. And the queue started to move faster. In half an hour, we managed to get through the Passport control counters.

(When we were near the counters, we saw the officers were not trying to make things faster for us. They were seen chit chatting to each others, and checking the passport at ease.)

(The Fast Track Counter was not moving at all, or moving so slowly that it didn't look like it was moving. Only one Fast Track counter was serving. Our normal queue line was much faster.)

Then, we had to go through the security checks. After the security checks, we only had 15 minutes before our flight departure. So, we ran as fast as we could. And we reached the boarding gate 10 minutes before departure time. The officer was kind enough to accept us. Right behind us was a family of three. They were initially rejected, the officer said, "Gate closed." After some pleading, they managed to go through. We boarded the bus which were bringing us to the plane. When the officer joint us at the bus, we could still see people running to the counter which were closed, and unmanned.

Thank God for our narrow escape.

Next time, if we had to take Turkish Airlines with transit in Istanbul, we will do the following :

1. Get off the plane and go as quickly as we can to the transit gate.
2. If we are going to airport from hotel, be at the airport at least 3 hours before flight departure time
3. Get the Fast Track Card from Check in Counter.
4. Ataturk Airport has 2 passport control entrances, check on both to choose the shorter queue.

Jan 2017 : Snowstorm in Istanbul causing chaos in Ataturk Istanbul Airport and Turkish Airlines

2017-01-09T13:13:00.000-08:00

On 6th of Jan, 2017, I was taking a flight via Turkish Airlines from Stockholm to Kuala Lumpur, transitting in Istanbul. The departure was on time, and the flight was smooth, not much turbulence. However, thirty minutes before arrival, I saw on my screen, the aeroplane was turning in circle. Then, the plane went straight passed Istanbul airport.

There was still no announcement from the pilot. It gave me a brief scare, thinking of MH370. A few rows down my seat, suddenly, I saw a passenger pressing the button calling the stewardess. He repeated the button pressing a few times, before I saw a stewardess walking towards him. After exchanging a few words, I saw stewardess walking towards the front cabin.

Then, we heard the announcement in Turkish language from the pilot, followed by a shorter message in English language. Our plane has been diverted to Samsun airport due to snowstorm in Istanbul. Samsun airport is about 1 hour flight away from Istanbul.

We landed at Samsun airport safely. The weather was fine, no snow, no rain, and temperature was about 20 deg C. Upon arrival, we were asked to wait in the plane for about 1 hour, before we were asked to bring our hand luggages down the plane. There was no announcement on what will happen after we left the plane. We presumed we will be informed.

Problem 1 : Visa payment

While queueing up the passport control line, I saw a few passengers having problems with visa payment. They were transitting and did not expect to pay visa. But now they have to fork out their own money to pay for the visa, so as to enter Turkey. They are hoping Turkish Airlines will compensate them on that, but it has not been the case.

Problem 2 : No announcement

Upon picking up our luggages, I was hoping there is announcement on what we should do next. There wasn't. A few Turkish Airlines officer are seen to entertain customer individually. So, not knowing what to do, I approached him, telling him that I have missed my connecting flight. He led me to Turkish Airlines counter down the hall. At the counter, the officer said that we will be brought to the hotel, and our expenses will be covered by the airlines. They could have made these process easier by making announcement, asking all the passenger to board the bus outside the arrival hall, to travel to the hotel they have arranged. It was not clear.

A bus conductor came and brought us to the bus, where we saw many passengers were already boarding the bus, while some were still waiting for empty buses to come.

There were a few buses waiting there, and nobody told us which bus to board. So, we jump on the next available bus, assuming that all the buses are the same. It was 3am in the morning, there wouldn't be other buses coming to fetch people at this wee hours in the morning, would they ? So, we acted based on our assumption since there was no Turkish Airlines officer to be seen for a long time until we are already in the bus. For those waiting for more information, they are left waiting on the road for later buses to arrive.

After 45 minutes drive, we arrive at the Samsun city centre, and the hotel. It was a 3 star hotel - Amisos. The hotel reception was very efficient. He made a copy of our passport, write down our room number and immediately pass us the room key. So the queue was not very long, and we could unwind in our room.

Problem 3 : Snowstorm continues in Istanbul and we were not given information in the hotel

After a good night sleep and morning breakfast, we thought that the Airlines would contact us. It was a quiet day. Nobody contacted us. So, I googled for Istanbul weather and learnt that snowstorm continued on the 7th and 8th Jan, and all flights are cancelled. Then, there were a few hours of cloudy, no snow weather on 8th Jan which gave me some hope. I also saw some flights taking off from Ataturk Airport webpage below :

Ataturk Istanbul Airport Flight Info

Then, I visited Turkish Airlines facebook page. There were so many people who similar fate as me. Some were far worst, below are the list of incidents :

1. They are left waiting for long hours in airport without food or drinks. After a while, I saw some passenger thanked for the sandwich.
2. They find their own hotel, pay for their hotel, food, and taxi to airport.
3. They call the airlines numbers given, noone answer the phone.
4. All emails sent are ignored.
5. Facebook messages were replied with cut and paste apologetic messages. Though some got private messages replied.
6. Public post on Turkish Airlines facebook messages were hiden.
7. People rebooked their flight but failed to get e-ticket, due to system down or overloaded.
8. People rebooked their flights many times, but failed.
9. For my case, I received an email and sms asking me to cancel for full refund or rebook my flight online or call the general line. When I tried to rebook it online, I was not allowed too. If that's case, why send me the email or sms, asking me to rebook ? The messages are very confusing and contradictory.
10. Istanbul airport is packed with people with super long queue, trying to reach the counter to rebook ticket, ask for flight info, ask for hotel accomodation, etc.
11. If customers take connecting flights from different airlines, they have to rebook those flights separately. And if the rebooked flights are cancelled, they have to rebook all the flights again, which can incur more and more cost.
12. Some managed to checked in at airport, then the flights were cancelled. And many have problem retrieving their checked-in luggages. After a long wait, they have to retire to hotel with no luggages and that lasted for a few days. They have no extra clothes to wear at the hotel. A passenger wore the same shirt for 4 days!
13. Then, some got lucky, and managed to fly, either to their intended destination, or a town nearby.
The subsequent problem was, their luggages did not arrive. The luggage handling system was in a mess. Probably the workers are overworked or the system was down and lack of proper tracking. A passenger reported that in Berlin, 100 passengers arrived with 300 baggages !
14. Some rerouted their destination, and managed to fly and arrived at a town not too far away, and took a train home after paying hotel, taxi and train at their own cost.

Turkish Airlines Facebook Customers' Cry

Turkish Airlines Flight Cancellation

Turkish Airlines Flight Cancellation Link

It just showed that Turkish Airlines and Ataturk Airport are not ready to handle the emergency situation.

With 400 flights cancelled a day, starting from 7th - 9th Jan, that would be 3 days. So, I presume 1200 flights were cancelled. Assuming there are an average of 200 passengers per flight, that would be 240,000 passengers with flight cancellation and rebooking/refund problems.

The amount of work peaked in such short time. The Airport staff, Airlines staff are overloaded, The airline system is also overloaded with sudden increase in work, hence going down.

To make the matter worst, the weather in Istanbul is not following the forecast. Rebooked flights are cancelled and requires rebooking. And the circle of problems go on and on.

The runway for aeroplane have been cleared up by thousands of workers and lots of trucks, but only limited runways are available. And then, the snowstorm started again.

It is madness !

Flowers in Cinque Terre during Spring

2016-06-19T12:59:00.000-07:00

Spring is beautiful in Cinque Terre, partly due to the blooming flowers along the hiking trail. I just could not stop taking photos of them. Here they are :

Cinque Terre Trip with Photos of Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore

2016-06-07T14:10:00.000-07:00

Cinque Terre, in Italian language means five small villages. It is located on the northeast coast of Italy. The closest airport is Pisa International Airport. From north to south, these villages are Monterosso al Mare, Vernazza, Corniglia, Manarola, and Riomaggiore. To go to Cinque Terre towns, you can take the train from La Spezia train station from the south or from Levanto station in the North. A few trains are leaving on every hour. The ticket is EUR4 one way (in 2016) from La Spezia to any towns, ending in Levanto (a modern town with access to the beach). It is more worthwhile to buy the Cinque Terre card (http://www.cinqueterre.eu.com/en/cinque-terre-card) which allows you to use the train, hiking trail and shuttle bus unlimitedly.

These five villages are surrounded by mountains which runs parallel to the "Appennino Mountains". In between the villages are insenature, steep valleys which makes for a unique landscape, different from the rest of the Italian coast. The typical colourful houses, mainly red, yellow and blue, are called liguri, built in between narrow alleys, and above the rocky terraces or cliff, vertical to the roaring sea. Protected by UNESCO, the Cinque Terre is a National Park with steep slopes and walls built to make terraces, and vineyards are planted.

Village of Monterosso

Monterosso has the widest beaches of the Cinque Terre villages. If you like to spend time sunbathing or playing with water in the beach, this is the best place. It also has the most streets with wine shops, artisan shops, hotels and restaurants. The village is divided into two parts from San Cristoforo hill and the old part of the village, protected by a rock spur, still presents the maritime village. When you exit from the train station, you can turn left to the old village where most restaurants and shops are available. If you turn right, you will go to San Cristoforo hill, and the area is populated with more hotels.

Village of Vernazza

Vernazza is the most picturesque village of the Cinque Terre. It used to be the Roman installation and had a significant strategical importance during the age of the Maritime Republics in Genoa. If you climb up the hills behing the Vernazza village, you will get the panaromic view of the village below.

After that, take a walk in the village near the watch tower and the "Castello" remains. In the small square, overlooking the seaside, the church of Santa Margherita di Antiochia can be seen.

Perhaps due to its reputation, this town is flooded most with tourists when compared to other 4 villages. The train station has only 1 toilet each for man and woman, and the queue is often very long.

Village of Corniglia

Corniglia is the only village built on top of the hill. To reach the village, you can either take a 365 steps up the hill, or take the 2 minutes shuttle bus. I paid EUR2.50 per pax per trip for the shuttle bus in 2016 Spring. For such short trip, it is considered expensive. However, if you have the Cinque Terre card, the shuttle bus is free.

This village is least crowded with tourist, and hence, in my opinion, the best place to experience the original Italian taste of these villages. The village consists of a small road leading to an enchanting terrace beside the sea. View of Manarola can be seen from here.

Placed on a steep promontory, with two exclusive small beaches at its sides, Corniglia can be reached from the railway through a long flight of steps leading to the village (an elevator is being built).

Church of San Pietro (1334) in Corniglia is considered as one of the most significant monuments in the gothic-ligurian style of the Cinque Terre. To the left of this church, you can find the hiking trail to Vernazza. This is a paid path, and Cinque Terre Card can be used. To the right of this church, you will enter the hiking train 7a, which is free, leading you up to the hill. It is an upward, mostly 30 to 45 degree hill slope, which is moderately challenging. In Spring, the blooming wild flowers make this region a really nice place to hike.

The hiking trail from Corniglia to Vernazza takes about one and half hour, and the view is spectacular. It is easier to hike from Corniglia to Vernazza than from Vernazza to Corniglia, due to the steep slopes down to Vernazza. If you starts from Vernazza, expect to climb the really steep slopes up more than 1000 steps. Well, unless that's the challenge you are looking for, go for it!

Village of Manarola

Manarola is another pictureque village, and its photo is most frequently used for representing Cinque Terre. Surrounded by vines, there are path for visitors climbing up the vines to get the panaromic view of the village. The wine of Manarola is very famous, and visitors who visited this place will often have wine with main course for lunch and dinner.

The hiking path "Via dell’ Amore" starts from here : an easy to walk, with a distance of two kilometres, connecting Manarola to Riomaggiore. Some of the path are walkway built beside the cliff facing the sea. The view is magnificent. Unfortunately, this path is closed in 2016.

In Manarola town centre, you can take the bus to Volastra which is located on top of the hill. The scenic drive is really worth it. With Cinque Terre Card, this ride is included. From Volastra, you can take another scenic bus route to Riomaggiore.

View from Volastra - Riomaggiore bus route

Village of Riomaggiore

Riomaggiore, is the first village you will arrive at, if you take the train from La Spezia. You can also reach this beautiful little village via scenic road by bus from La Spezia or Manarola. The village is named after the stream crossing it. The village has a small seashore, with roaring waves hitting the shore.

Bad Experience with WIND phone shop in Lecce Train Station, Italy

2016-05-26T10:38:00.000-07:00

If you ever stopped by Lecce, a beautiful and historical town in Southern part of Italy, please be extra careful as a tourist. They will know that you are a tourist from your appearance and when you don't speak Italian language.

I had a bad experience buying a new SIM card for my smartphone in Lecce Train Station. The train station opened only in the morning until 1pm, and then open again from 4.45pm to 8pm. A gentleman was running the store and he could speak English.

I was asking only for one new SIM card with only Internet package. As you can see from the picture below, wht WIND website said that the package cost only 9€.

The SIM card activation fee is 5€, as can be seen from the same website :

If you cannot understand Italian, here is the translation :

"Sei già cliente Wind?
Attiva Internet 5 GIGA con un costo di attivazione di 5 euro."

Google translated it to :

"Already a customer Wind?
Active Internet GIGA 5 at a cost of 5 € activation."

So, I only need to pay the total of 14€. 5€ for activation and 9€ for Internet package.

However, the salesman at WIND Lecce Train station branch asked me to pay a total of 25€. I was shocked. I asked for explanation, and unclearly, he said that 5 € for activation, 9 € for Internet package, and 11 € for credit. I didn't really understand why I needed to buy extra credit. I told him that I only need Internet. No phone calls, no SMS needed. He still insisted 25€. I was in hurry to catch the train, so i just paid. I asked for receipt, and he said, "No receipt". He said, "this is phone package, no receipt." I insisted, he just photocopied the paper below for me, which didn't show I paid 25€. And of course, everything is in Italian language.

That's the catch. If a proper phone shop sells you something and cannot give you receipt. Something is fishy, something is defintely not right here! I have travelled in Europe and Asia extensively for the last 20 years, and I have never bought SIM card and phone credit, where the seller cannot provide me with the receipt. Honestly speaking, this is my first bad experience with a phone shop, after travelling to more than 20 countries in the world. Mind you, this is a proper WIND branch shop which I visited.

Anyway, the salesman said, I should restart my phone in 1 or 2 hours and I can use the Internet immediately. So, I boarded the train to Gallipoli. And about 1 hour later, I received lots of Italian SMS, saying that I have paid some credits, but the added up total was not 25€.
I got a few seconds of Internet connection, and then, the connection was broken, and never came back !

1 day passed. No internet. 2 days passed. Still no internet. So, I went to the Wind Shop in Gallipoli at Via Lecce. Damn, the shop was not opened, and it was 10.56am ! I waited from 10.56am to 11.20am, and it was still closed. It's Sunday, so they don't open on Sunday? And the worst thing is, there is no "Opening hours" notice at the shop windows and door. What an I-Wind shop, speaking about professionalism.

After paying 25€ and still not able to use Internet is a really frustrating experience. I have to resort to using home country line for contacting hotel and I happened to miss one important email from hotel asking me about the time to pick me up.

Thanks to Google, I could go to www.wind.it, and learnt a bit more. With google translation, I found out that I was being cheated. And there is a Hotline number 155 which I can call for customer service.

So, I called 155. And an Italian woman picked up, and said that she cannot speak English well, and an English speaking person will call me back in 20 minutes. So, I waited. And a guy called me back with reasonably good English. After explaining my problem to him, he said that the Internet is not working on my phone number because I am not short of 2€ credit ! Now, that is really outragious. I told him, I already paid 25€, and now you are asking me to pay another 2€ ? He couldn't resolve my problem, and hand up on me.

Now what. Not giving up, I called 155 again. And again, they told me an English speaking person will call me back in 10 minutes. I never got that call.

Thanks to Google and Facebook, I googled " Wind Lecce " and found this facebook page.

A very helpful lady, called Leone attened to my complaint. We chatted for almost 20 minutes. She asked questions to understand my problems. She asked me to check my phone credit by pressing 123#. I checked, and the credit is 0.00Euro. In the end, she apologized for not able to help me. I wasn't hoping much, since I didn't think she was not doing customer service work. I just told her to remember the man at Wind Lecce Train Station branch, who was dishonest with me and with 25Euro and overpaid, my Internet was still not working.

An hour later, I received another FB messages, and a phone call. It was Leone. She asked me to check my phone credit using 123#, and I saw I have got 2 Euro credit now. Then she asked me to restart my phone. She will call me back 10 minutes later. I restarted my phone. Then, she messaged me at fb messenger again, and asked me to check whether my internet was working. And Wala! Yes, it is !

Thank God for sending Leone to me as the good Samaritan. I still have another 3 weeks in Italy, and I need the Internet !

Not all Wind staff are bad, and Wind is really lucky to have Leone as the determined customer service officer, who wanted to help customers. I think she creditted the additional Euros into my account, allowing me to have the Internet activated. I don't know where she got the money, but thank you so very much, Leone.

As for the additional Euro11, what should I do ? Tell me, in your comment.

Experience Making Visa or Work Permit at Indonesian Embassy in Kuala Lumpur

My Experience in Indonesian Embassy - To make Entry Visa / Work Permit

My cable visa is ready. It was obtained by my company from Indonesian Embassy (require 1 month processing time). Next, I need to get the Entry visa at Indonesia Embassy in Kuala Lumpur. I was asked to bring the documents below :

A huge crowd of about 100 people have started queueing up in front of the gate at about 7am. So, to avoid disappointment, it is recommended to be at the gate by 7.30am.

Work Process in Indonesian Embassy

After you park your car, walk towards the Indonesian Embassy. There are two entrances. See photo below.

D1 is the entrance is for Indonesian renewing their passport or work visa.
D2 is the entrance for Non-Indonesians to make work permit

(Note : These marking D1 and D2 is done by me. You will not see the sign D1 and D2 at the Embassy entrance. There is a guard there who can guide you in case you have problem.)

In my first trip there, Entrance D2 was closed. I can still enter via D1, and turn right, walk pass a hall of applicants, and then turn right to the Information Counter to get the queue number and a form.

Information Counter

After you enter Entrance D2, you will see an Information Counter on your left. It is a enclosed booth with a small windows for you to get the queue number and a form to fill. You can also ask the lady officer on which room to go to do your work permit.

Room for Making Work Permit

After you get your queue number at the Information Counter, go up the staircase nearby, and when you are up half a floor, you will see an air-conditioned room on your right. Push the door open and enter this room. You will see many foreigners (Europeans for example) in this room. Also, this seems to be the only air-conditioned room for public entrance in Indonesian Embassy.

Then, fill up the form which you obtained from the Information Counter while waiting for your number to be called.

When your number is called, walk to the respective counter and hand over the following :

Cable visa letter
2 recent passport photos (red background)
Original passport
Passport copy (front copy & signature copy)
Visa fees RM 451 (Multiple Business entry )

The officer will check the documents and if all goes well, you will be given a slip and informed of the passport collection time on the next day.

Pick Up Passport

On the second day, go to the Indonesian Embassy and arrive at the time frame given, and walk to the same room where you submitted your documents. Queue in line in any windows opened to pick up your passport. Normally, the queue is short.

That's it !

A cycling trip around Taiwan Kaohsiung's Lian Lake with Photos / Images

2015-02-07T06:38:00.000-08:00

Lian Lake is quite a huge lake in Kaohsiung, Taiwan. It is located a few minutes drive from High Speed Train station Zuoyin. I stayed in the hotel, "Lian Tan Hui Guan" during my stay in Kaohsiung. Right in front of this hotel, I rented a bike and took a stroll around the lake. I took many stops and photographed, spending about 2 to 3 hours in total for the nice and relaxing trip.

For Coffee Lovers : Best Coffee in Sydney

2014-02-16T03:21:00.000-08:00

If you are a coffee lover, Sydney is your place. Coffee drinking is practically a culture in Sydney. While you are likely to be served a memorable coffee at just about any coffee shop on the street, there are a few coffee outlets that you will not want to miss during your trip to this city.

Making new Passport or renew Passport near Subang Airport or Plaza Glomac - 2013

2013-08-29T05:42:00.003-07:00

Immigration Office in Subang Airport Road

After a quick google check, I found out that the Immigration Office near Terminal 3 has closed and moved to Plaza Glomac which is nearby, beside the Subang Airport Road too.

If you use waze on your smart phone as GPS, search for "Immigration Office Plaza Glomac" or "Passport Kelana Jaya" or "Passport Plaza Glomac " and it will lead you to the right location. The photo below shows the Immigration office. It is actually a corner shop painted in golden yellow colour.

Another quick way to go to this office : drive towards Paradigm Mall, turn left to "Jalan SS7/26" immediately before Paradigm Mall, go straight and take the second left turn to "Jalan SS7/19", and go straight you will see this building below.

Not only the location has been changed, there are a few other changes worth noting. (Note that this post is valid since August, 2013).

1) The passport photo requires white background now, not blue. You can take the photos just beside the Passport office, at very reasonable rate of 6 photos for RM10. It is fast and rather good quality. With no queue, I got my photos in 1 or 2 minutes.

2) Since white background photo requirement is implemented, the automated machine to create or renew passport is no longer in service. So, everyone has to queue up to go to the counter to get the passport done.

How fast is the Passport Renewal process ?

I reached the Immigration Office at about 7.30am on a Wednesday morning. After taking photos and I queued up for numbers. My number was 3058, and my turn came only at about 10am. After that, the process was quick. The officer took my old passport, photos and IC. (Photocopied IC is only required for new passport application, not required for passport renewal.) Then, I wait for the payment counter to called me, and it did, about 15 minutes later. So, by 10.30am, I am good to go and come back 1 hour later to pick up my passport. So, all in all, if I come in at 7.30am, I can get my passport at 11.30am, that's 4 hours of waiting time.

I think the process took longer than 5 years ago. I recalled leaving the immigration office with my passport within 2 hours.

Note that, during week days, only 500 numbers are given, and when the number is all taken up, they don't take in any more application. So if you don't want to make a few trips, go early. The office opens on Saturday and Sunday too, but only 200 numbers, and less number of counters are opened.

Making/Renew Passport in UTC Pudu Sentral

Note : Nowadays you can make your passport UTC Pudu Sentral at Puduraya Bus Station.
Yes, the bus station near Kota Raya mall, or Petaling Street.

And it is open after office hours !!

Open every day except public holidays.

A Trip to Cijin (Qijin) island, Kaohsiung - Photos and Images

2013-05-24T07:59:00.001-07:00

Cijin or Qijin is an island in Kaohsiung. It used to be connected to the mainland of Taiwan at the southern tip, but in year 1967, the government broke the link from the main land, so as to build the second entry point to Port of Kaohsiung.

The island is often flooded with visitors on the weekend. They either take the ferry or underground tunnel to go from mainland to the island. To take the ferry, you can depart from the Gushan Ferry Terminal. The view from this terminal is spectacular !

It only cost TWD15 per person per trip from Taiwan mainland to Cijin.

The trip takes about 15 to 20 minutes.

The beach in Cijin was slowly washed away by waves. So the government built the wave barrier near the beach, and according to the locals, it did help to preserved the beach.

During the Morocco Typhoon in 2009, this beach was flooded with so many woods and tree trunks from unknown source. The community gathered and removed the woods, so that the beach is available to public again.

The Splendor Hotel, also called the 85 Sky Tower Hotel, like the name said, is soaring high with 85 floors above Kaohsiung skyline. It used to be the tallest hotel in Taiwan until Taipei 101 tower overtook the place.

The hotel reception is on the 39th floor. Yes, that means the lowest hotel room is above 39th floor. But 40th to 46th floor are used for various function such as restaurants, function rooms etc. The lowest floor for hotel room is 46th floor, and the highest is on the 70th floor. I was lucky enough to stayed on the 70th floor, and the photos below is the awesome view from the hotel room :

The annual Yeouido Spring Flower or Cherry Blossom festival is back again ! About 1700 cherry trees erupt into magnificent clouds of pink. This spectacular view stretches 1.7km long on the street behind the National Assembly building.

To get there, get off at Subway line 9, Exit 1, National Assembly Station. When you are out on the street, walk towards the National Assembly Building, and go around it. The stretch of cherry blossom is located just right behind the building.

The National Assembly building is opened to public during this cherry blossom festival. It is a golden opportunity to visit the place, and it is free.

There are many policemen patrolling in this area. So it is very safe.

Couples are seen having their portrait drawn.

The crowd is amazing.

Supermarket in Rome city Centre

2013-02-18T09:47:00.000-08:00

It was not so easy to find big supermarket in city centre of Rome. There are many small mini markets run by Indians. They open every day including public holidays and at odd hours, while the Italians are taking time off.

After a few days of walking in the city of Rome , we stumbled across this supermarket called Despar in Via Nationale street. And then another one closed to Spanish steps. This is by far the biggest supermarket in Rome, which we have come across.

When compare the price of goods in Supermarket, I felt that Rome's supermakets are most expensive when compared to Venice and Florence. For instance, for a litre packet of 100% orange juice, I paid Eur2.40 plus in Rome, while in Venice, I can get it for Eur 1.20. We went to a smaller town called Cortina d'Ampesso too, which is known as a posh resort for winter sports in the Dolomites. Despite that, the goods in supermarket there is cheaper than Venice. I paid Eur 0.90 for a litre packet of 100% orange juice.

Best Area to Stay in Rome

To find a place to stay in Rome, try :

http://www.housetrip.com

I think this site have better deals than others. You can get self-contained apartment in this site, and they provide quite a wide variety of choices in various part of Rome with reasonable price.

For best area to stay, find a place near the Colosseum, which is central to all the tourist attractions, except Vatican City. You can walk to almost all the location within 5 to 30 minutes, and the walking routes in this area is very scenic, during day and night.

Colloseum

For vatican city, you can easily take the underground train there - it doesn't cost much. Area around vatican city is very expensive. The restaurants and accommodation charge higher price than the area around Colosseum.

Best Place to Stay in Florence, Italy

2013-02-17T22:46:00.000-08:00

Florence, a picturesque town in Italy.

Florence

We stayed in this pretty little studio apartment in Florence, it is located right behind the Uffizi museum.

http://www.oh-florence.com/en/florence-apartments/ref_15581/

The location is really excellent. All the main attractions are within walking distance including the main railway station. The only set back is: it is located on the 3rd floor. We are not used to climbing so much staircase. But it wasn't so bad. They don't have oven in the kitchen too, so I gotta think of how to cook with gas stove only. There is a big grocery store just after the famous bridge Ponte Vecchio, which is only a few minutes walk away. We loved the location of the apartment. Florence is so picturesque !

http://www.oh-florence.com website also provide many other apartment options. I find their choices quite good, and the price is reasonable.

Ski Instructor in Cortina D'Ampezzo, Italy

2013-02-03T07:20:00.001-08:00

Zannoni Mauro

Zannoni Mauro was our personal ski instructor during our last ski trip to Cortina D'Ampezzo. A careful person, who thinks, safety should come first, he didn't want to take too many students at one go. So, on the first day, my son and I took our first ski lesson with him. Though falling is normally expected during ski lessons, under his instruction, none of us fall during the entire ski lesson. He is superb, and a very professional ski instructor.

Then, on the second day, my husband took his turn. Initially, my husband was not so sure whether he should attempt it since he has not fully recovered from arm injury. When we asked Mauro whether my husband should try. He said, "He should be fine, I will take care that he doesn't fall." And really, my husband didn't fall and had the first memorable ski lesson of his life.

Having said that, Mauro ensures that we continue to improve and go for higher stage. My son went from beginner slope, to higher slope, as days went by. He sees how the student progresses; if he thinks that they can go for more difficult slope, he will challenge them. Since Mauro took great care of my son, I felt alright to let him bring my 10 year old son to take the ski lift to the higher slope. My son was having the best time of his life. Whenever my son came down from the slope, I asked him whether he had a good time. He said, the higher the slope, the more fun it brought.

Personal Ski Lesson

Ski lesson in Cortina d'Ampezzo

Though a native Italian, Mauro can speak a few languages such as English and French. He worked in North America, France and a few other countries in Europe before settling down in Cortina d'Ampezzo.

Mauro is also the mountain guide if you like to hike in the midst of these beautiful dolomite. He is familiar with many routes of the mountain roads in Cortina d'Ampezzo. He is also an experience guide for mountain climbers. He is willing to go to any mountain area in Italy, not restricting himself to Cortina d'Ampezzo. So, please feel free to contact him. His fee is very reasonable.
