Two countries in 9 Days - Day 1 : Touch down @ Ho Chi Minh City

Jan 29th 2014 - Left city of pothole and heading to HCMC, Vietnam. The journey took me 1 hours 10 mins. Rushing through the days, pick up a taxi and headed to KLIA. Broad the Malaysia Airline, the true Malaysian Hospitality... Anyway, that would be another story eh~

Touched down at 6pm, cleared the custom and met my bro-in-law after 30 mins. Still faster than KLIA in term of baggage handling.

Left the baggage at my sister place and headed to dinner nearby. Dinner @ Papa's Vietnam, an Italian Restaurant.

Italian Food - Papa's Vietnam

Authentic Italian food from the Italian chef... Yummy~
After the meal, we proceed with to the New Year's decoration near Crescent Mall District 7. The florist decoration was so nice...

Lunar New Year flower and light decoration

  

So many different species of flower including the paddy fields... So it's an eye opener for me to see how pretty is the man made garden on the road. (they closed the road and put up the garden). more;

Back to my sister place after the visit... Day 1 end. ~

Ngan Yin Siew Wan Rice (黯然銷魂飯)

If you have watch the Hong Kong cantonese movie, you will know where this Ngam Yin Siew Wan Rice (黯然銷魂飯) came from...

Two weeks ago, my colleagues brought us to eat this Ngam Yin Siew Wan Rice (黯然銷魂飯) at Dengkil food court. It's a small hawker whom sell this rice. No doubt it's very nice...

JungFrauJoch - The highest point of Europe

What TZ did on this year April fool? hahaha... TZ visited the highest point of Europe called JungFrauJoch - Top of Europe. The highest point that you may visit is located at 11,782ft / 3,571m above the sea level.

How to get there?
You have to take a two hours train from Interlaken to Kleine Scheidegg and switched to another train to go up to the JungFrauJoch - Top of Europe station. The journey took 2 hours from Interlaken including the transit to the top. The train fare cost CHF179 return which equivalent to RM716.

Train to JungFrauJoch - Top of Europe @ Kleine Scheidegg

@ the Top of Europe, you will experience the feeling of gasping for breath as the air is thinner. 
Anyway, how's the view at the top?

First view via window when we first arrived @ the top

Information Board regarding the height of the place

the 100 years old building, underneath is the railway that brought us up

 

the view of Top of Europe in video clip

As we walked along to the other side of the building we were directed to the Icy Glacier area of the mountain. This is an interesting area as the floor, ceiling, wall were made of ice. i.e. we are inside the glacier.

Tunnel inside glacier

Met the Pooh family

Trying to squeeze myself through a small and narrow tunnel

We stayed there for half a day and decided to leave the place to head back to Interlaken to do some shopping and later catch our train back to Zurich for our connecting train to Brussel, Belgium. There will be another adventure in Brussel, Belgium eh~

JungFrau

JungFrauJoch - Top of Europe is a worth to visit as we have experienced quick a number of things which we would not be able to find them in Malaysia

1. The high altitude gasping for breath cause it's 11,782ft above sea level about 2.5 times higher than Mt. Kinabalu.
2. Walking and half sliding on the icy floor inside the Glacier. Squeeze through the small tunnel inside the Glacier
3. Sit in the train that climb up the mountain with spectacular view of the rocky Alps mountain range
4. Amazing long tunnel inside the mountain range which is built 100 years ago
5. JungFrauJoch got its Unesco World Heritage status on 2001

City with Motorbikes > cars

Do you know in which city you can get to have motorbikes more than cars on the street? If you happen to pay a visit of this city which is called Ho Chi Minh City (a.k.a Saigon). What if when you wake up early morning and realize that you don't see any motorbike on the street of HCMC. Then you are still dreaming :p

Why? 

Let me show you some pictures that i took during my trip in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam

a

Saturday morning @ HCMC

Saturday morning @ HCMC - @ a junction

On your mark, get set, go~ 

My very first road crossing @ HCMC
New action for me to learn

Vietnam Independent day Travel @National Highway
From HCMC to MEKONG DELTA
Are you able to calculate how many motorbikes?

Now i bet you understand why i say if you are in HCMC and you don't see any motorbike on the street... you must be having a sweet dream. A dream that most probably will not happen.

Anyway, you might not be able to imagine how messy is the traffic in HCMC. You have to go to HCMC to experience how messy is their traffic. Anyway, since i have bought myself a new Nikon D7000. I managed to take a clip and share with all of you. 

What do you think? Can you manage to get out from the mess if you are the driver?

Roti Sai Mai - Ayutthaya specialty

When I travelled to Ayutthaya, our tour guide has asked the driver to pull over and got us the Ayutthaya's specialty dessert called Roti Sai Mai...

What is Roti Sai Mai? It's Thai-style candy floss or cotton candy which is wrapped in a sweet roti. This treat is a favorite of the Thais. I have recorded on how we ate Roti Sai Mai...




Next time if you have a chance to visit Ayutthaya, don't forget to get some Roti Sai Mai eh~

On Changing Guard

I was visiting the capital city of Thailand few weeks back. While visiting the summer palace of King Rama. I have recorded a very interesting scenery which not happen every hour. I was lucky to see the process live from the palace.

Since "Sharing is Caring" I decided to post the clip here ...

On feeding the CAT in Menam Chao Phraya

We hired a boat for 1500 Batt to tour the most important river in Bangkok, the Menam Chao Phraya. There are so many nice scenery during the tour... but the most exciting for the whole trip is feeding the CAT in the river :p

Gepai Waterfall @ Bidor

There was one of the weekend in April, i went to Bidor with my friends on the Bidor Marathon... The Marathon has introduced a very nice and kind of untouched waterfall in the vicinity of Bidor area.

We drove into a village road to explore the run tracks for 21KM... We ended up in a very attractive waterfall. Watch my first Vlog eh~

So what you think about the waterfall... nice?

To Where You Are....

Lately, I was not in a swinging mood... in fact it is going down after i got the news that i will not be flying off to Uganda for my project so soon. I done a lot of reflection and tried to talk to my inner self during all the nights for the past one week ... Sometime i could only hear nothing but my own breathing... errrrr... once a while i could hear the DUKE HIGHWAY snoring ... damn!... he destroyed my lovely night... Anyway, i had a very quiet tonight... I started to went through my iTune to find a nice song to play while reading some interesting blog... Hey, I come across this song by Josh Groban... To Where You Are

To Where you Are - Josh Groban

Who can say for certain

Maybe you�re still here

I feel you all around me

Your memories so clear

Deep in the stillness

I can hear you speak

You�re still an inspiration

Can it be (? )

That you are mine

Forever love

And you are watching over me from up above

Fly me up to where you are

Beyond the distant star

I wish upon tonight

To see you smile

If only for awhile to know you�re there

A breath away�s not far

To where you are

Are you gently sleeping

Here inside my dream

And isn�t faith believing

All power can�t be seen

As my heart holds you

Just one beat away

I cherish all you gave me everyday

�cause you are mine

Forever love

Watching me from up above

And I believe

That angels breathe

And that love will live on and never leave

Fly me up

To where you are

Beyond the distant star

I wish upon tonight

To see you smile

If only for awhile

To know you�re there

A breath away�s not far

To where you are

I know you�re there

A breath away�s not far

To where you are 

Do you have the same feeling as i'm ? I found this song is so touchy and Josh's voice was so nice and sexy... :)

Insomnia, Fantasy Girl, Beautiful, Krazy, Cookie Jar, In the Ayer, Right Round, Switch...
