New camera

Just bought a new digital camera :Canon S2 IS.
So far still playing around with the feature. Seems like the camera doesn't come with any rechargeable battery and only a 16Mb SD card (only enought for 4 picture :-) .
Decided to buy a 512Mb SD and buy more battery from lelong.com.

Here is some sample picture I took with my new camera :

Business trip to Athens Greece

Just came back from my one week business trip to Athens, Greece.
I have about 2 and half days spare time out of my hectic and packed meeting schedule.
One the first day, we went to the most famous sightseeing spot in Athens - "Acropolis".
We have to spend 12 euro ( 1 euro ~= RM4.5) to purchase a acropolis entrance ticket.
The ticket also enable you to visit 5 other historical sites around Athens, namely :
1) Ancient Agora
2) Theatre of Dionysos
3) Romain Agora
4) Kerameikos
5) Temple of Olympian Zues.

I only managed to visit Ancient Agora and have another 4 tickets with me. Maybe I can visit next time if I still have chance to visit Athens :-)













From top of Acropolis, you can see alsmost the whole Athens city. It's quite nice view.







On the next spare day, we went for cruise to 3 island namely : Poros, Hydra and Aegina.
It cost ~78 euro (original is 85 Euro) which including the lunch and some Greek cultural performance.
The view is quite nice.






On the last day, I just spend the whole morning to shop for souvinier in Plaka.
Later I found out that the Ouzo in Airport is actually cheaper than in Plaka :-( so I bought another bottle of Ouzo in Airport.

Ah Jie able to walk by himself

Finally at the month of 13th, Ah Jie able to walk around by himself. He is very exited on this.
It's a very good present for me. After I came back from my business trip in Athens, I felt very happy to see that he can walk by himself.
