Bali Engagement Trip 2012 - Day 2

23rd Feb 2012 - 27th Feb 2012

Day 2:

Today's plan was around Ubud area. It's about 2 hrs drive from our hotel, and we plan to catch some morning sun at the Ubud Terrace so alarm set off at 5am and off we go to Ubud. The traffic condition in Bali is pretty gd for sleeping. The best decision made was not to drive on our own in Bali. Hire a driver is a must!

 There was nobody when we reach there. We hang ard awhile and the driver guide fetch us to the next destination, Ubud coffee plantation. Don't like the idea of having coffee made fr beans "digested" from the animal. X_X

Ubud palace was next.

 

The famous Ubud market that i think is now infested with many tourist already...but they do sell many interesting things and will be nice to put some at home.

 Lunch was at Bebek Bengil - Famous dirty duck.

  

After lunch we asked the driver to bring us to a waterfall and so here we are....reminds me of the Niagara fall in US, which was 10000x nicer of cos.

We saw this woman when we are leaving the river. She was there to take some fresh water from the river i think she do it everyday!!! this was about a 10 mins walk down n up fleets of steps. Superwoman.

Sunset in Bali is always very nice!!!! Cant believe we did not do any sea/beach activity.

Awesome Australia Adventure 2013

Awesome Australia Adventure AAA

10th Feb 2013-17th Feb 2013

Day 1:

Pre-departure: On Chu xi, we had reunion dinner at Clementi. Our plan was to bring HL's luggage back to my hse and pack everything tgt. So we board a cab and halfway thru the journey, there was a loud bang. So we tot a stone hit the car. But there was another continuous noise and slowly the driver move from lane 1 to the RS. Yes, tyre "pong zek" liao! Right in the middle of PIE. The taxi uncle tried to change the tyre  but i STOP him from doing so. And he manage to get a cab for us, flag down at the middle of PIE.

We left for Melbourne on the first day of CNY. Our flight was1025pm. We reach there around 830pm to get our seats sorted out since Emirate mess up the sitting arrangement. Lucky enough we manage to get to sit tgt, but away from Alv &Lin.

First dinner of the yr- Chicken Rendang fr Coffee & Toast while we wait for them to arrive and yes it's the start of our trip! =D
7 hr+ flight, night flight is gd for slping but I spend half the time watching the inflight entertainment. Can't really slp as the person on my right is super big size and he took the right side hand rest :s

Melbourne was pretty cooling early in the morning, airport wasn't too crowded. Custom in melb seems to be less strict than in NZ. This time rd we didn't get stop for soiled hiking shoes :x.

We got a mini bus cab which is super ex, from airport to the discoverycampervan pick up place. :(

I was really excited to see these big vehicles again. This time round, the 6 berth baby is bigger than our 2 berth in NZ. But SIAN our vehicle got delayed and we can only pick up until very very late, like 4pm. >:(

So we went for lunch and grocery shopping at nearby to save some time. We also catch up some lost slp. So sad for the time wasted :/

First meal in Aust, Roast Chicken and lotsa chips.

Finally at 4pm the vehicle is here and we were re-excited again. Wanted to ask the CS guy to take a pic of us but he took a pic WITH us instead. LOL.

Hop and we head to the first destination-Buy a GPS since their GPS all rented out. o.O

Good thing abt summer is sun set very late so at ard 8pm it's still bright, when we reach our first destination at Mansfield.

Yea Holiday park was not very big but seems very cosy. We had a good bath after a long nite and day. First dinner of the day of cos will be at our cozy house! THe guys were pretty(very) excited about the awning lol...There is UV rays at night too.

Dinner was great with soup and pork chop!!

Stars r always brighter out of Singapore. It's a great night watching the stars and enjoying the cold wind after a long n tiring day. =D

Hong Kong 2012 - Day 3

25th Dec 2012-29th Dec 2012

Day 3:

Woke up early to head down to the camera strap shop to get HL stuff. The shop has a very cosy design and a very cute lazy fluffy cat!

Grab a quick wanton mee brunch at nearby and we went down to Daniel's place to pick up issac and Geri. Daniel's hse is so nice and windy!! They shipped their bed fr SG but some how the HK room r too small for the bed to fit in so its lying at their living room!

The couple freshen up and we head out to central for a shoot.

We walk along streets that we passby the day before and stop at Agnes B for some food. Food was really nice too.

We shoot all the way till evening time and end at LKF. It was my first time to LKF, not very spectecular, maybe cos it's weekday. We went to a super famous popular crowded ramen - Butao Ramen [豚王]  shop near LKF.(Was watching a HK show and saw them film there too!). The shop is very small and deco was very jap. Ramen was super awesome. Could have been better if we are super hungry. =D

It's also Liwen's birthday so we bought a cake to celebrate with her! Head back to Aaron's place to rest early as we are waking at at 2am for the bride's make up. O.O

Pre wedding again

17th Mar 2013

 HL's fren from Bali came to SIN for a short holiday and he asked us to model for him. So I tot y not take some gown shoot and we planned everything in less than a week. Not much preparation, with the experience we had in Australia, I only pack the make up/hairdo items on sat night.

We(I) woke up at 430am to get ready, biggest problem is my hair and I decided to just make it a simple affair this time round. Pick up Govinda at his capsule hotel and off we head to Marina Barrage at 7am.

Weather was really nice today, which was rare!! Xn bought bfast for us and the very impt fan!

 I love my hair. Only in this picture.

Weather was good today. :)

By the time it's almost 11am, we are sweating so so much.

I miss the weather in Vic.

Hong Kong 2012 - Day 2

25th Dec 2012-29th Dec 2012

Day 2:

Today's plan was to meet Daniel Yan n Liwen for bfast before heading down to scout for some nice location for the pre wedding shoot.

Aaron was on leave so he brought us ard central area to walk walk. Agnes B cafe caught my attention and we tot it will be a nice place for a photoshoot. =)

Mid level is pretty well known for the longest elevator system in HK(maybe the world?), in the morning there is only going down direction and night time only going up direction. I like the little cafes and concept shops ard central. They make great location for shoots.

Second half of the day was to check out the shek-O area. There's a little trekking needed so we gotta check out if its comfortable for the couple to walk up in gown.
Dan n Liwen left to go trekking with their church friends( coincidence, same place as where we r gg) and we left to meet Aaron. It was quite an easy walk up, view was great!! I Donno if this is consider hiking( maybe jus trekking in HL's term) but to me it's not something that I always do( not much mountain in sg anyway) and I'm glad I still have the stamina to do this with HL. :) baby step to bigger mountains!

We hang ard for some time there to wait for Dan n Liwen to meet us at the top! For a tourist photo taking and we went down to go to the beach. As seen in HK Drama, HKee BBQ style!~ Sucha nice weather for the BBQ.

We left Shek-O and head down to Mongkok area, finally some time for streets food street walk shopping. The night ended with 2 tops and baby shoes and fruits to bring home.
