Country "V"

Welcome to Tan Ton NHat International Airport...
hehehe... I just reached Country "V"

So where am I right now?
V not stands for Vancouver
V also not stands for Venice
V stands for Vietnam.

Yup I'm @ Ho Chi Minh City now, the financial hub for Vietnam... Will be in country "V" for 10 days. Not sure able to update my blog or not,  but definitely no Facebook for 10 days. Why? Coz Vietnam lovely government has blocked FB.

Until then ... Ciao~

Airport Taxi fully book

I'm trying to book a taxi to KLIA and leave for Country "V".

Receptionist: Good evening, Airport limo.
Me: Good evening, I would like to book a budget taxi to KLIA @ 6:30am tomorrow (Aug 27th 2011).
Receptionist: Sorry sir, we only have available taxi after 9am. 
Me: Oh... how about premium?
Receptionist: It's full too.

I wondered it's because of too many customers or the total of taxi got reduced as some of them already Balik Kampung (returning to hometown). So i have no choice to ask my friend to send me to KL Sentral. Hopefully i could check in and leave the baggage @ KL Sentral. Then they will send over to KLIA :p

Okay, I better hit the bed now. i only have 4 hours sleep. Need to wake up @ 5:30am. Nite nite.

So not sure when he will get back to me with the propose time...

Nadeje's Mille Crepe @ Malacca

I was having a short gateway from the metropolitan city of Kuala Lumpur two weeks back. We were @ Malacca. One of my friend has suggested we definitely need to give the Nadeje's famous Mille Crepe a try before we left Malacca.

We paid a visit to the Pahlawan outlet... it was packed and we were lucky to have a seat inside the aircon in such a hot and burning weather in Malacca. So, my friend and I went over to the counter and order 4 pieces of Mille Crepe...

4 different type of Mille Crepe
The original
Rum & Raising
Tiramisu
Chocolate
This was how we attacked these 4 pieces of cake




Now, after seeing all those yummy picture and the clip. Are you convince to drive down to Malacca?

Guess what? Two days later i received a call from the hospital and the doctors told me that they need around RM3500 to have a surgery on my Baby Nikon D70 in order to cure him. RM3500 to cure him, so I have no choice but make a decision to put him to sleep... What a sad day?
