Ocean Park, Hong Kong

Growing up in a family watching HK-TVB cantonese series with all the children mentioning about how much they wannt to visit Ocean Park (that's before the launch of Disneyland), I got to see this place.

Since I've missed the fun of Ocean Park when I was a kid, I rewarded myself by sacrificing a day in HK for the park visit.
I was quite dissapointed "how ancient" this place has turned into, worst part, they are in the midst of 'refurbishing' with construction all over.


Same thing like Disneyland, I had lunch and took picture with the mascot, except that, there is not much crowd here as compared to Disneyland.



We need to queue up to take the cable car to the other side where we see the seals, dolphins, sea creatures, and the park rides.

What I liked most is the huge aquarium with hundreds of different species swimming.

I would say the cable car ride experience was thrilling.
If you are afraid of height, better dont' look down, as we would see only hills and seas.



The much awaited dolphin show was quite a dissapointment as it was less than 30 minute show.
I think their techniques had not changed much.
Yes, they were good, but I think I expected TOO much.



There was a section for Park Rides.
Since my sis was not interesting in all these rides, I tried all these all by myself :P
And good thing that it was a week day, there isn't much queue.



The abyss is something like Genting's Solero Space shot, so it was not THRILLING AT ALL!

Eagle view - or something like that...
It was spinning round and round that I myself got myself spinning.


Entertainers and my last visit to say bye-bye to panda.


Before exiting the park, I jumped on the trampoline (which I think meant for kids :P)

What's the Difference between 'Net' and "Nett"

Since it's part of my group's job to publish daily billings report to the management, our Director (from US) pinpointed that we should fix the spelling of 'nett billings' to 'net billings'. My colleauge was looking at google, trying to understand the 'right' spelling to be used. I finally checked it from Wikipedia , and found that 'nett' is BRITISH and 'net' is AMERICAN. No wonder he's offended to fix it to 'net'! C'mon. I'm in an american MNC, I should be more sensitive towards this.

An afternoon at Dannok

Living at the northern side of Malaysia makes it really convenient and easy to go 'overseas'. For us, going to our neighboring country, be it Thailand or Singapore by land or by flight is really easy. I'm always a fan of Thai food, and with the remaining Thai bahts that I had since my last Bangkok trip (which I didn't finish even crossing the border a couple or times), I decided to go Dannok for FOOD again. So, it's a day trip or rather, half day tour to Dannok For the past few weeks, I was searching for insta / blog /facebook posts if there is any other new hangouts in Dannok, but sadly, I couldn't find many bloggers who write about it. The funny part is, I already blogged about it two years ago. The immigration complex in Malaysia is new. I nearly couldn't recognize it, while passing to get our passport checked. As I didn't want to drive over, we parked our car at the Zon Duty Free. As I entered, I took the wrong ticket (which parking rate is RM3
