Trip to SG Night Safari

hohoho....
Merry X'mas.
Been a while since i last wrote here.
Just back from my short trip to SG. Was there to view the settings in Orchard Road for the coming X'mas celebration. What to say... they have it done perfectly. Luckily the weather was on my side. With a great weather i was able to walk all my way to view the deco n the procession along Orchard Road, SG.

After that we race ourself to the Night Safari, believe to be the worlds biggest Night Safari. We went for the animal show which starts at 9:30pm (the third show, most of the animals are tired from the first n second one). Although they were tired from earlier performance, they give their best in the third one. we had a great time watching these animal perform their act.

The next thing we had was the jungle ride a.k.a Tram ride. We had a great journey to the animal kingdom. There are giraffes, Lions (roaring loudly), tigers, hyenas, deers, mountain goat, and so much more. I am amazed to how they lived and hunt for food during the night. The 45minutes trip was worth while to do.

We hadn't had a time to go for the jungle trail as it's approaching midnight. We left the safari went back home to call it a day.

Melaka New Attraction

1st Nov 2007

Pirate Ship

Ferris Wheel

Melaka has a new place to visit now. once a busy place where all people from different state meet, it has been an unknown or dead place after the bus terminal was shifted to Melaka Sentral.

Well starts today, there'll be a theme park situated right where the old bus terminal once crowded with people. the place will have a ferris wheel, called the Malacca Eye, (not as big as compared with Titiwangsa lake) pirate ship (a little similiar with Sunway ship, i forgot what it's name) and a bungy trampolin or so called trampolin bungy which has yet to be completed.

Food Testing at Everly Hotel

Went for my bro food test last weekend.

Preparation all was nice as expected from a 4star Hotel. hahaha
All of us was waiting for the food to come.

First dish will be "4 Hot n Cold Combinations".

Second dish "Braised Shark's Fin with Crabmeat Soup" (not real shark fin actually)

Third dish "Boneless Lemon Chicken"

Fourth dish "Steam Sea Bass Hong Kong Style"

Fifth dish "Butter Prawn with Oat"

Sixth dish "Broccoli with Trio Mushroom"

Seventh dish "Lotus Leaf with Fried Rice"

Last n not least dish "Longan Beancurd"

All the dishes are on par to my standard expect for the saltyness in the Shark's Fin n Broccoli dish. Also the chicks r bad as it taste not fresh at all. Well, the chef says he'll do better on the big day. We'll keep our finger crossed then.
All this food testing thing makes me crave for more. wuakakaka.
Getting plump by the next day, well need to slim down for the big day then.
