1st Europe Trip

I went to Europe for the business trip on last year( November, 2004) . My destination is Cyprus Island. Besides Cyprus, I also visited Amsterdam since I have 8 hours transit time in Schiphol Airport in Amsterdam. This is the first time I went to Europe.

From airport, we took a train to downtown Amsterdam which cost us 5.7 euro round trip (from airport to Amsterdam Central).


(Amsterdam Central)

Amsterdam is full of bicycle and canal.
We went for canal tour, visited famous red light district etc. It’s just the short trip in Amsterdam, but I think is a very good experience because the building looks really difference from US.

Cyrus Island is break into two, southern part is Greek and northern is Turkish. We went to Greek part of the Cyprus. We stayed in Le Meridian Hotel. It’s a nice hotel and have one of the Europe finest SPA.

Danga Bay Trip on Hari Raya

Here is some picture on one of the place of interest in Johore Bahru, Danga Bay.




I went there on 2nd day of Hari Raya (4th Novermber 2005) , it’s packed with people. There’s numerous activity you can do here, such as kids can play the ride on games like merry go-around, roller-coaster, cup, mini train etc.




They also have a train(trailer) which will bring you around the place. You can also stand at the seaside to enjoy the seaview or “Singapore view” (as Singapore is just opposite the sea).




Besides went to Danga Bay, we also have lunch in the famous fish head curry shop at Ulu Tiram.

A Famosa Trip in Deepavali

A’ Famosa Trip in Deepavali

During deepavali this year, we went to A’ Famosa to spend almost the whole day there.
The entry fees for the Safari park is RM35. We paid ~RM45 to include the lunch.
There’s 4 shows included : Bird Show, wild wild west, Multi Animal Show and Elephant show.

We reach there about 12 noon, just in time for the bird show. There’re a lot of bird actor such as pigeon, hornbill, eagle and parrot.


Next we went for lunch. The lunch have a few choices , main dish included Hot plate Noodle, Curry Rice and chicken rice and you can choose from various soft drink.

Next show is Wild Wild West, which I think is similar to the show in Universal Studio.
Here is the paranoma view for the wild wild west “stage”



The following show is the multi animal show. There’re lots of animal star like otter, iguana, orang utan, bear and dog.
Here is the stage for multi animal show.
