Nothing Beats

...A freshly brewed coffee in the morning. Last day to pack, hopefully I don't forget the essentials such as my passport, foreign cash etc :) I always hated packing & unpacking. Normally what I do when I reach back home is just to leave my bags on the floor and get the clothes/stuff I need on a day to day basis, much like a closet, only portable heheheh.

Busy Packing

1st May is fast approaching and we're busy packing. We're having a little bit of problem with the checked baggage. No problem for Malaysia Airlines (Kuala Lumpur-London) as they allow 32kgs for checked baggage. The flight to London-Zurich using British Airways will be a bit of a problem as they only allow up to 23kgs of checked baggage. Our bags are only half full and we're already approaching 20kgs! I think we'll save few kgs left for souvenirs...

An offer I can't refuse

Casio Pro Trek. Got it for a steal at RM680 last Saturday. I guess the saleswoman was desperate for a sale. Normally this watch retails for more than RM1000. I've been looking around for this watch since December last year but the price keeps me away from buying it. Anyways the some of the 'cool' function for this device are the digital compass, barometer, temperature, altimeter, solar-powered rechargeable battery, etc. For technical details, click here.

The photo were snapped using my Nokia N95, 5 megapixels with Carl Zeiss Optics, macro shot with LED flash. I was a bit too close with the subject so its a bit blurry close to the lens. Maybe I'll blog about N95 after this :) Click the picture to view larger image and observe the picture's sharp details.

Baby Firdaus Laughing

My sister's baby that I blogged about yesterday. At first he didn't notice I was taking video of him. Watch his face in the end when he finally noticed :) hahaha. Captured using my Nokia N95 in poor lighting. Sorry about the pixellation, I guess VOX downgraded the quality to make the video size smaller.

My first post!

Well, after constant begging from my wife and sister, I've finally registered and now typing my new 1st post :) My sister has her own blog, "A Journey To Remember". I was very impressed by the content and design considering she's not really an IT savvy person. Bravo to her! Also checkout her baby's blog, "Firdaus und der Schweiz". Such a cute fella.

On 1st May, my wife & I will be visiting her in Switzerland. Quite a distance from my tropical home here in Malaysia. We'll be meeting up with her & her family in London as Malaysia Airlines do not have any more direct flights to Zurich this year. At first I wanted to buy tickets to Frankfurt but my sister advised me to get tickets to Heathrow-London instead. We'll be doing some sightseeing in the city for a few days before continuing our trip to her place in Windisch, Switzerland. Gonna get me & my wife tickets of "The Original London Sightseeing Tour"; 2 quids cheaper to buy online :)
