Mom was reluctant to eat anything during the first day in Hong Kong until bro found and happily picked up HKD 20 from a street.  You can see from the photo she was holding the money.

Mom said the food was too expensive. Poor mom.

Hmmmm…. weird, my bro kept seeing HKD on the floor? Twice in just two days!  The first time was at the Hong Kong airport but his reaction was too slow, somebody managed to pick it up first. Ha! Ha!

Street view from a trishaw ride must be wonderful.

Trishaw also know as “beca” was the common mode of transport back in the olden days in Penang.

Happy Chinese New Year!

There are various countries maps available.  Check out the 3D landmarks.  This application is not just for motorists and it is for pedestrians too.

You can select and download various navigator voices for your mobile.  Some even provide detailed street names.  I like the voice of the English Surfer Dude. Try it and you will know why.

Familiar with these street names? We visited Hong Kong last November.

We took MTR (Mass Transit Railway) to Jordan station and asked a policeman for direction.

With natural instinct, we found our accommodation.

Later that day, we met the same friendly policeman. He smiled shyly and apologized for showing us the wrong direction.

Suddenly I spotted this lady. I have no idea why I like the way she carried those flowers.

I was curious of her destination.

Artist at work.

A same thing can be seen in many different ways through different eyes.

Imagine if the arm grow wider…

Nice piece of art and very talented artist. Not an easy task.

Awesome view from our tram ride.

Travelling by tram or locally known as “Ding Ding” allowed us to view Hong Kong living culture.

What a great experience!

Policemen were stationed at various parts of Orchard Road, Singapore during Christmas Eve.

Too crowded and you could barely walked. We squeezed through the crowd and left the place as fast as we could.

I wonder if there is any extra table on the first floor of this shop. We noticed only one table and limited seats.

Poor guy on the left, insufficient space for his leg.

Check out the photo of the shop on the newspapers (hanging on the wall).

This is the photo of Casino Lisboa I took during my less than 1 day trip to Macau.  I noticed the man in the photo after the trip.

We were enjoying the landscape, the weather and the beauty of Macau not knowing a man on top of the famous Casino Lisboa.

Is he a bad guy? Is he a superhero?
