Hobart, Tasmania (Day 1)

Image
I was in Tasmania from the 6th of Mar - 18th of Mar. Landed in Melbourne airport and boarded another flight to Hobart. I was secretly wishing I can pay Melbourne a visit but couldn't make it :| Nevertheless, there's always next time :). Hobart Airport Our accommodation in Hobart Bunk bed for me & Bin We had a walk around Hobart after lunch.  Seagulls Loving the color of the sky Had our dinner at the famous Blue Eye Seafood Restaurant, Salamanca. Mixed grill. Seafood Pie. You can find big chunks of seafood in the pie~ Fish & Chips. It was good but I find the portion a little small :p or it could be I am a big eater.  We call it a day after dinner since most shops are closed after 6pm ;).  P.S. Thank you to the lovely people who are always there to bring me joy. Thanks for being my pillars :) I travel light. I think the most important thing is to be in a good mood and enjoy life, wherever you are. —

Sarawak Cultural Village

On the 3rd day of our Kuching trip ( 1st day  and 2nd day ) , we paid a visit to Sarawak Cultural Village. At 1st, I was hesitant to go as I find the ticket price a little bit steep - at RM 60 for adult; RM 30 for child (age 6 - 12). But I was there in the end due to kiasu-ness.  Breakfast - Sarawak Laksa. My favorite in Kuching! It's so delicious I had it again the next day in another kopitiam :p But still, I think Chong Choon's Sarawak Laksa is the best.  Kampung Budaya Sarawak  We started our tour with the Cultural Show Pitcher plants lantern - I like! Bamboo bridge. Too bad it's closed. Houses for you to visit in the village The Chinese Farm House Malay House Kuih Kapit making in the Malay house   Melanau Tall House The interior of the tall house Rumah Orang Ulu - Beautiful traditional motifs painted on the totem poles, making it one of my favorite houses in Sarawak Cultural Village.

I'm bad to mention this) Nth anniversary coz it's a secret number. Once revealed I think we will be whacked by many people or maybe just Bin :p Had dinner @ Watami, gonna do a review soon! My favorite dish from Watami  Went for company trip, visited Hanoi for the 1st time. It was fun spending time with colleagues. Will blog about it later. Just a quick update to let you know I'm surviving. Nights! P.S. Time flies, it's already 2nd half of year 2012. Looking back at the 1st half- I've made some decisions, traveled quite a bit, cried a couple of times, grateful for family support, spent time with good friends & etc etc. But most importantly, I think I'm a happier person now :D The rest of the 2012 is gonna be Awesome!
