Mount Edgcumbe - House & Country Park, Cornwall

A lovely weather welcomed the arrival of a bunch of newbie to Mount Edgcumbe in Cornwall. Transportation is provided by multi-faith chaplaincy of university, and they had to pay 2.40 pound for ferry return ticket. Out of curiosity, she decided to go even she might not know anyone. She joined and she wasn't regret. This place is awesome and greenish. She was surrounded by trees, field, sea, castle and etc. In spite of hill walking, she enjoyed the cold breeze and fresh air. A brief introduction of Mt Edgcumbe provided by the broucher: Mt Edgcumbe Country Park enjoys a magnificent setting in south east Cornwall and overlooks Plymouth Sound and the River Tamar.

Eleven Bistro, Jonker Street Malacca

The last stop in Malacca was in Jonker Street, a street that you can get in touch with Malacca's culture and food. We decided to try Portuguese food, another specialty in Malacca. In exact, the location is in the middle of street, thus it is not noticeable. If your starting point is from Discovery Cafe on your left, you may walk through the alley. Later on, you will notice Eleven Bistro and Nancy Nyonya Food. The interior design is kinda simple. It is small, doesn't able to accommodation much customers. Due to much walking, I chose to have a pineapple ice to cold my body. It is just simple, but a good serve if you are thirsty or hot. The appetizer, is free of charge. I didn't know the name, but I guess it is similar as acah (fruits or vegetables such as cucumber, mango, papaya are soaked into a vinegar or others). It is savory, gives a sensation of sweet and sour. The ikan bilis is crispy too. Mix vegetables - fried with cauliflowers, carrots, broccoli, mushroom and prawn...

A Famosa Resort "Cowboy Town" Part 2

Whooah, we had been long waiting for this show. I kept wondering how the show would be liked, whereas friends reminded me not to miss the show. I reckoned, it was super great, and boosted my excitement to the highest. I sat in front, in case I couldn't shot any. Fortunately, my nikon bi bi functioned alright. It could be better if I have a better shooting skill. I was terrified, when the malay girls sat behind me trying to feed the giant elephant with sugar cane. They were afraid to feed, thus they kept shouting with laughter. Oh gosh, I swear I wanted scold them. Could you imagine a giant wet trunk nearly hit us? It was disgusted. My nikon bi bi, finally battery died before the end of the show. Sadly, I couldn't record everything especially the fireworks. How I wish I could catch the beauty in my bi bi. But, I satisfied with this camera. Red Indian Show: Spitfire Don't come near me, I will chop you! The best shot ever ! haha Hey dude, calm down Carnival: Friendly clown Col...

A Famosa Resort "Cowboy Town" Part 1

We walked down from resort to cowboy town, just a 1o minutes stroll. From far, you could hear the sound of music spreading from the direction of cowboy town. We excitedly walked a little bit faster, too bad we forgot to bring the pass. We turned back, at last we managed to catch a bus and took a ride to cowboy town. They welcomed us with sing and dance in their cultured costumes. Their enthusiasm gave a real warmth atmosphere to all of us. The live stage The front gate Small theme park Restaurants Bowling centre The malls There were only 3 choices of restaurants/cafe and 1 bistro, with a hell price. You forced to take the food, because there wasn't have any better choices. The attractions in this town were red indian show and carnival show. I was not regretting, because I was truly amazed and enjoyed those shows. Very worthwhile shows.
