As promised before, here’s the London Eye’s photo that I’ve taken during our honeymoon back in 2005.

The London Eye, one of the biggest ferris wheel in the world, is undoubtedly the must visit tourist spot in London.

Halfway down the country roads of the German-Luxembourg border, as we’re heading down to the Moselle valley in Trittenheim, Germany, we were a little low on fuel. Lucky that we found a mini gas station along the way.

What do you need? Super Diesel, Benzin, or Super unleaded?

It only costs Euro 1.179 per litre. How much is it in Malaysia? RM1.91?

We at the ED Fuel station would like to wish you guys a “Good Fart”! and please come back again.

WTF?

Try Google Translate and translate it from German to English.

“Selamat Datang ke London Heathrow Airport.” It’s 6 in the morning and totally jet-lagged!

Part of London Heathrow Airport
London Heathrow is one of the busiest airports in the world. From what I saw, there’s an average of 1 commercial aircraft landing per minute. That pretty much means back to back, non-stop flights coming in. If you’re good at maths and economics, you can calculate the number of tourists coming in and the amount of money they’re gonna spend here. Tourism is a huge business in this part of the world!

Watch out for the next post as we touch down in London’s Heathrow Airport!

and don’t get your eyes off cause I’ll be taking you for a ride inside the London Eye! Stay tuned!

Madurodam is a park filled with miniature peoples and buildings.

If you’re lazy to travel around Holland, you could just come here and see all the famous buildings and places in this country. Cool eh?

Madurodam is situated in Den Haag (The Hague) city, Netherlands.

And they even feature Malaysia Airlines Boeing-747 in their mini Schipol International Airport!

If you wonder how does the park look like from the sky, here’s Google Sighseeing’s shot.

Windmills turn, tour boats move down canals, fire-fighters are extinguishing a fire in the harbour, modern trains traverse the city on the world’s largest miniature railway. The modernised shop has an extensive range of typical Dutch products and surprising souvenirs. A visit to nearby Scheveningen Beach, the various museums in the immediate vicinity, can be combined easily with a visit to Madurodam.

It’s been a while since I last blogged. I’ve been on lazy-mode since coming back from New Zealand, and it took me more than a week to finally process the pictures and post them out here.

I don’t know why, perhaps it’s the lazy nature of the New Zealand countrysides, but I haven’t got any inspiration to write anything yet. Anyway, since the old saying goes “A picture is worth a thousand words”, I’ve prepared this 8,000 word post for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!

The Flight

Panic status is still on ‘relax’ mode. That means there’s plenty of time to shop around for alcohol.

I’m flying on an Emirates Airbus 300 and I must say, I’ve never seen this feature on any other airlines before. There’s actually 3 different views that you can choose from! This shot showing the aircraft approaching the runway. It’s pretty cool ya know.

Just peel one of these off and stick it on your seat, and the air-stewardess will obey your command. No kidding, it works!

Welcome to Auckland

Auckland’s Sky Tower greets as I approach the city centre.

Sky City welcomes the year of the dog.

A big banner wishing you a Happy Chinese New Year.

One of the streets in Auckland decorated by the red Chinese lanterns.

Usual scene of the crowd in a casino during every Chinese New Year. Let me tell you, almost 80% of the visitors are Asians.

That’s all for now folks. More in the next post.
