Return from my Cambodia trip. Enjoyed myself as we eat quite a lot of local fruits. We encountered a very good taxi driver and we booked his taxi from 3 days. Uploaded my photos in facebook and travelogue but havent blog yet so are saved as draft currently. Will update my blog soon as I dun want to blog it mths later as I may not remember some details. My blog images upload is bursting soon, currently at 89%. Was wondering whether I can migrate my personal blog to another email account but my concern is whether the photos will be deleted or not. I'm thinking of ways to prevent the images upload from bursting but I had so many trips entries, bursting is a matter of time. Hmm... Think gonna create another travelogue and link to the existing one. I'm really glad that I started blogging since I started travelling except the first trip to HK. It's not easy to maintain a travelogue so I really admired those who are able to as there are a lot of work from uploading the photos to blogging the entries. My purpose of maintaining a travelogue is to look back those entries in the future as it's impossible to remember every single details in those trips. I'm also happy that people found the information useful to their trip when they read my travelogue. =) This really motivates me to keep it going.

Happy New Year everyone! Went to Marina Bay to countdown with YQ, my sis and her frenz. Tons of people everywhere and in the end, we countdown at Marina Square. Saw people counting down at Oriental Hotel, I was thinking mayb next time can book a hotel too. Just that the rates are super high and must book early.

Il Lido is located at Sentosa Golf Resort. We make reservation for Sunday Champagne brunch ytd. Reached there around 12.45pm and it was drizzling. We opt for the indoor seats. The food was so so, not really very nice. If not for the voucher, I wouldnt come here for their brunch since it is so ex, $98 per pax and yet the food is not nice at all. The portion is ok but there are 5 courses which is very filling.
Menu
White wine, Red wine & champagne
Garlic bread

Updates since my last entry....
Last minute travel decision to KL from 23 - 26 Dec with Diana. Office closed from 22 Dec - 3 Jan. Was chatting with Diana in msn on 22 Dec and we decided to head to KL for a short holidays. Decided to travel by coach from Johor Larkin Terminal to KL. Msn my frenz who is going to KL soon and ask him for the hotel name which he is staying. Quickly booked the accomodation online and done some simple research, managed to found my KL guidebook which i took from the NATAS travel fair. This is my first time having such a last minute travel plan, thrilling....

Won a champagne brunch for 2 pax at Il Lido. Wow... this is by far the most expensive item that I had won. Had been joining contests very frequently nowadays. So far, had won movie tix for Coco before Chanel, 9, April bride, 500 days of summer, Mulan and Shelock Homes. Hehe.. get to watch these movies previews for free. Hope to win more in the future.

Some updates:
Attended sis convocation at Raffles City Convention Hall last sat. Each graduates has one complimentary guest hence sis had to fork out additional $55/ person for 2 more pax. Haha... she keep complaining tt so ex wow... loaning of the gown cost ~$200plus and the photograph package cost another $300plus. After the convocation, YQ pick us up and we went to Marina Barrage to fulfil my sis wish of taking photos there. We head to Vivo and had dinner at Soup Restaurant. Oso collected the swensen ice-cream tub at $1 due to the HSBC credit card promotion. Now there are already 4 tubs of ice-cream at home. Usual price is $10.80, tt's a cheap deal.

Make a couple of travel plan next year, quite a no of long wkend, going to make use of these wkends.

Booked jetstar airtix to Penang for Good Friday weekend next yr. Cost $109 per pax. Going there for 3 days 2 nights and able to maximise the time there as the arrival time at Penang is 8.25am on Friday and the return flight is 5.10pm on Sun. Going there with my parent, sis and YQ.

Also booked jetstar airtix to Phnom Penh last friday for travel from 16-19 Jan 10. Going there wif sis. Make use of the friday lunch sales promotion, cost $88 for return trip which is inclusive of tax, normal tix cost almost $200. Prefer Angkor Wat but the travelling period is from Apr - May 10. Dec - Jan is the ideal travelling period to Cambodia as the weather for the remaining months are either too hot or monsoon season.

Intend to go to Kuching during the National weekend with my family, havent book the airtix yet, waiting to see if there are promotions coming, latest will book by dec, scared the price will increase. Oso planning to go to Bangkok with YQ during Xmas period next yr. Most likely going for a week, wanna go Ayutthaya and Kanchanaburi too.

Only one trip this year and I planned so many trips next year, crazy.... but I love it! Hope that the budget airlines are flying to more destionations, the more the merrier. =)

Finished my post on the Ubin trip. Realised that I tend to forget some of the details if I blog a long time after my trip even though I carried a notebook when I went for my trip. Someone asked me before tt how come I remember those nitty gritty things and I told her tt I bought a notebook along for all my trips. Well, will try to update my travelogue as soon as possible after each of my trips.

Came across this brain teaser and share it here wif everyone:

Two women got onto a bus, they were followed by another two men and one little boy. At the next stop one woman got off and a further six people got on. When the bus arrived in the town, two men got off and another four men got on. The bus then continued on its journey. At the next stop three women and three men got off the bus, this time no-one got back on the bus. At the last stop of its journey a further six people got off the bus. When the bus finished its journey there was no passengers left on the bus? True or False?
