Baltimore - Maryland

Baltimore is another city in Maryland. And this time, Betul was driving and Salome went with us. We left about 1pm and reached there about 2:15pm. We were hungry. Salome and me didnt have lunch, so we went someplace to eat. We were at this foodcourt, and what a coincidence, the boss of this chinese eatery is a singaporean! Haha...first encounter with singaporeans since i came here.. :) I had curry chicken with rice and broccoli. It was nice...

I think i like Baltimore more than Annapolis. It's another waterfront city and they have this big aquarium there...it's like 5 storeys high, and the queue was really long. I think i might want to go back and try to get into the aquarium. :)

We went to tour around the ships and submarine. Cool stuffs.

This is the inside of the submarine....

After the ships and submarine tour, we went for desserts and then it was back home. :)




Betul, me, Salome. This is taken inside one of the ships we went to.

Annapolis - Maryland

Went to Annapolis on Sat-2/18/06. Annapolis is a city in Maryland. I was driving and Betul went with me. Sophie, Isabell and Marjon was going there later, so i thought we would just go ahead of them and meet them there. There is a naval academy at Annapolis, which is where the Navy ball will be! :P I'm going...heehee...

Anyway, i thought i shld just go ard to as many plcs as i can while i'm here. So we went and walk around. Nothing much actually, but it's by the water and it's kinda nice. And then we went to the Naval academy. Walked around there and went for lunch. It was COLD......but luckily i went prepared. I had everything to keep me warm.. :) heehee

So, just a few photos here....
















Sophie, Isabell and Marjon came about 3:30pm. They were meeting Isabell's bf there and they are going to Baltimore on that day and spent a night there. We didnt go with them to stay overnight but we went to Baltimore on sunday to meet them.

It's SNOWING


it's snowing again. And this time, the snow is really a lot. It started snowing yesterday morning (11 Feb 2006) and it just snowed throughout the day and night. The power went off in the middle of the night and didnt come back on until like 10am in the morning...scary...i wonder what will happened if the power doesnt come on...everyone would be freezing in the house!! haha :P

The snow is like half-way my kneees....it was fun to walk in it, but i dont have the proper shoes and pants, so my feet were freezing after a while...haha..ohwell, but it was fun.

Here's a picture of me just outside the garage. My host dad was trying to shavel the snow away from the garage...My car is all covered with snow...luckily i dont have to drive anywhere today and hopefully by tmr the snow would have all melted. If not, the kids are going to be outta school again...!! haha
