With the overwhelming Chinese Lunar Calender New Year around the corner, every body is beaming with RED. Yea, we Chinese believe Red is an auspicious colour that bring good luck. Despite that, the coming Spring Summer already welcome the neon & pastel families. The collections is a smorgasbord of different cuts, colours & material.

Foot on 2400 feet

2012-01-09T15:24:00.001+08:00

Well well...my apology for being MIA. After hustle bustle of work
& holidays, finally got a chance to get away from the town &
a post for mi blog in this 2012 :)
We rode up to this place which is 30m off Kota Kinabalu town & located about 2400 feet above sea level. The name is
Kasih Sayang Resort. Enjoy the photos~

Quite a long winded road but the view is
promising & you basically can see the whole town from here.

Didn't manage to stay overnite tho,
so we grab a drink.

And of course light snack is a must...

NOTE : Seriously tantalizing to the taste bud

Side view of the resorts.

Free & Easy

2011-10-13T23:08:00.000+08:00

They say, good times always pass by in just a blink & it's our last day in Bali(and soon the dreadful back to reality transition).

Last day was Free & Easy where we swirl in the hustle bustle of Kuta! :D

Some sweetness to tame the scorching hot day!

Coldstone ice cream was ubber kewl~

"What cha looking at"

Near our hotel "Bali Rani Hotel"

Art is expressed in every aspect.

Look at their beautifully carved manhole covers!

As we walk around the maze of Kuta town,

we finally stumble upon Hard Rock Hotel & Cafe

Then it's the Sunset of Bali :)

So we headed to the stretch of beach behind Discovery Mall,

called Kuta Beach

Everyone with their activities and of course....

Us too, cam whore!

The sunset at Kuta beach marked our last pit stop for the vacation.

Simply swayed and mesmerized by the golden champagne color whilst they shimmer and glam upon the sand and sea.

As for the dinner, we tried some of their local delicacies from the hotel restaurant :)

"Bebek Goreng" a.k.a. Fried Duck

Peking Duck with Balinese Sauce = Awesomeness

Bali : Day 3

2011-10-05T23:15:00.000+08:00

Hey Hey! Hello again, and here is Day 3 of my Bali journey.
We visited another temple before heading for lunch at restaurant at a high ground. After the lunch break, we then moved on to Lake Bratan i.e. the second largest lake in Bali near Bedugul. Last but not least, the must visit floating temple, Tanah Lot.

Enjoy ;)

At the pool area of the hotel

Say wuuu lala

Just some madness before the tour start

Infront of the temple.

Did you notice their gate/entrance is made of split gate ?

They believe that every element on this earth is off good and bad.

Yin and Yang, ring the bell ?

Many...Many "Offerings"

Even the rope is handmade.

Snapshots of the view from the restaurant

Lake Bratan

Ooh look, cookie monster on the loose! JK.

If you happen to notice, its all made of grains, beans & corns.

Well, according to the tour guide they had a big ceremony last year & a few status was build in accordance to this event.

I call these shy flower, they just love to lay low

Infront of Tanah Lot temple gate

Fly babe fly!
Outfit for the day :
Dress : Cotton On
Sling Bag : Batik fabrics bag
Watch : Michael Kors
Rings : from local market (I'll show the zoom in
version in next photos aite?)

Up next would be photos from our last day in Bali,

Bali : Day 1

2011-09-22T22:22:00.000+08:00

Am back! Yea, am back from a trip to place with tranquility & breathtaking scenes. Visited one of the most renown island of Indonesia, BALI. Stayed there for 4 days 3 nite at Bali Rani Hotel which is located in central Kuta. We were greeted by a Tour guide plus the flower band(Frangipani is their national flower). Basically the whole trip is maneuvered by them. After checking in, we take a walk around the nearby street(before the tour starts). Around 3pm its time to meet up & event for the evening were first, to visit a temple at Uluwatu with a very panoramic view and naughty ~~devious~~ monkeys! Then we're off to watch the traditional dance, Kecak Dance at a cultural village & dinner. Btw, the dance was smoking hot! Oooh yea, I mean real fire man. Enjoy the photos ;D

A big statue just outside of Ngurah Rai International airport

Discovery Mall

Sogo

The streets nearby our hotel. Motorbikes everywhere.

Infront of the Monkey Temple
.....because temple is a sacred and holy place....

One must wear something that is at least covering the knee. They do provide free wrapping scarfs infront of the temple. Was wearing denim shorts that time :S Oh well,
I kinna like how the scarf turned out to be :D

Warning : Monkeys everywhere, it's almost like a security camera. They got their eyes on you, Yeah YOU!

Monkeys having funs caught on camera
Btw, these monkeys are not as innocent as you might see, looks can be deceiving. They have a tendency to steal stuff like, hats, glasses and yes, U.S. Dollar.

Panoramic view. The texture & formation of the cliff is so amazing!

The Kecak Dance before dinner

Note : He's stabbing himself with a knife, like 10x.
