Just some things that happened in SG recently..

There's Sakae Sushi near my house. Though it is not very good food but we've got Jap food nearby. Hope there will be a restaurant, not just their main office.

See it how it glows at night..

Another event: Lunch @ Shang Palace
The dim sum is not as fantastic as other places but overall ambiance very nice.
See their selection of tea. Very expensive.


Look.. our new colleague.

And Edward..

And Mavis!


The Sabah Trip..

Glad my legs are still intact. Can't believe we did it up to the rest house. I thought I would hae died of exhaustion just 1km from Laban Rata. It was such a mental and physical turmoil up that mountain. Heck.. i should have gone to Bukit Timah HILL and do some trial out maybe that would have prepared me, mentally, for this torturous climb. But the view was breathtaking so is the coldness and icy cold water. The heated water and the room's heater has some timings for it. So you just have to do your stuff within that time and otherwise, wash your hands etc in icy cold 'ice mountain'. Wish we went to the summit. We were so close to it. But Jude figured that it would be very tiring for me to climb the last 2.5km upwards so we left for downhill after breakfast.

Back to the city was just aches everywhere. Did the most painful foot massage ever. My calves and thighs were so sore that she could not put too much strength with the massaging of my calves. She even applied some muscle pain cream to soothe the soreness.

This is the first day resort.. The place was nice to chill out at. The weather is cool and very cold when it rains. Feels like back in Aus. Haha..Picture of some mountain at the background. Could be part of Mount Kinabalu.


Me.. i made it to the Laban Rata Resthouse.

And Yes.. That's the mountain at the back..

Embarking on the trecherous route back down..

My favaourite bonsai tree!

It looks so pretty..


Realized I didn't take much pictures. I think the climb up has worn me out and causing the lack of energy to hold the camera..

Feels good to be home.
