King & I  

Sunday, August 26, 2007

watched The King & I with Xien Lin couple of weeks ago.. funny musical. but too much talking. not very impressive scores & songs. and a few irritating screeching voices. goodness. especially that Tuptim. eeek! our seats were so good that we had a few eye contacts with the performers! and Chulalongkong! scary man! haha!
a nice view of the Theater from our seats. yeah. we had pretty good seats for the price we paid! haha!

steak steak steak. sis had so many of this there.. eeekk.. too meaty for my taste

Monday, August 13, 2007

went to Cairns, Australia for a week. Main attractions there are the Coral Sea and Great Barrier Reef. really breath-taking scenery there.. went to all places and did almost all that is featured there.. as I went there for a week, the photos are just too many to upload.. haha so I picked out some really nice and favourite ones. some can even be use as wallpaper! view from our hotel. breath-taking scenery. sunrise & sunset by my side =)
the Esplanade - sunset sun rise from the Esplanade @ Cairns



on the cruise to Green Island & the Great Barrier Reef
and we saw 4 to 6 Free Willy whales!! so huge!!! when coming home from Great Barrier Reef, we saw another school of whales!


Green Island - Snorkelling and diving heaven.

coral coral corals.. colourful underwater world
the coral sea. theres no need to swim or dive to see fishes and sea creatures. the water is so deliciously clear that I bend down my head, I see fishes everywhere. to dive is almost an insult to the beautiful shore..next was the trip to Great Barrier Reef. a pontoon built in the middle of the coral sea. perfect for all sea activities!
scuba dooooo - walking on sea bed


the Great Barrier Reef - one of the 7 Wonders of the World!
huge brain coral. with many many colourful fishes around can see people diving too..huge whally! friendly fish that goes around playing with tourists!
papa in the coral sea
a tiny part of the Great Barrier Reef. really b-e-a-utiful! kingdom of fishes and corals. no wonder it is the 7th wonder of the world! the photos are just not enough to show how beautiful it is.. sigh

damn enormous clam!! think it's like the size of 1 & half of my head! even went down to irritate that ugly thing. hahaha! the moon - sunset from our hotel room
sunset
Kuranda - a town up in the mountains.
i dunno why, but the sun looks nice in Cairns. haha!
like the harry potter train!! fun! tail end of the train
scenic view of Queensland
water fall

she only has me in her eyes =)the Barron River
took the skyrail (cable car) which is so many hundred times higher than Singapore's one. eeek. flew us across the green canopy, the oldest rainforest, and over look the city of Queensland. Spectacular view. almost like taking a helicopter! rather scary!

had Kangaroo meat, Crocodile's tail & beef combo. the one that is being cut is the bloody Kangaroo. white colour is crocodile, needless to say~
hehe. and a live one.
walabee - mutated mini kangaroo. haha~
gentle creatures.. they grab hold of my hands and not let go till they finish the last pallet
mother with the baby walabee! bonus picture!


papa like filming MTV. haha! a contrast to the Rainforest earlier. this is the Savanah. Dry landscape.
fruit plantation.
with a noisy pink parrot.

macadamia farm
rather weird to eat the main course with so many fruits on the same plate. but to them, these are really exotic fruits. haha~ the prawn/crab/crayfish! wadever it is!! it's the one that Mr Bean eats in the movie! hahaha! very delicious! scanning thru this list of ice cream flavours, i'm shocked I actually tried ALL of them. A L L
went to coffee farm. a huge coffee bean roasting machine here went for wine tasting. the man drunk us with 15 flavours. but the flavours are unique!
passion fruit, mango, lychee, wild berries, strawberry wine.
and special strawberry baileys! home again! next ~ Krabi for my birthday!
