Two very expensive bottle of water...



do not be fooled by their ordinary looks, small petite size that holds about 250ml of pure distilled water.

Normally they cost about 3 for $1 at supermarkets.

Here we paid $6 for two of them. That is $3 for EACH bottle.

did you hear my heart in pain??

*ouch*

all because of the silly rules of NOT allowing passengers to bring their own water supply onto aircrafts!

3 no 4 no 5 places which I would love to visit

1. Bahamas Beach - Stay at Alantis Resort

It has the largest underwater marine collection of over 500,000 marinelife, with some of its collection yet to be named. The simple knowledge that the manta ray is waiting in a giant tank for you to discover it is awesome, I dun have to put on my wetsuit (which usually takes a long long time), dive underwater and wait for it to appear, I can simply walk up next to it. So cool!

It has got giant slides that runs through the giant marine tanks as well, wont it be cool?? Never tried that but I definitely want to!!


2. Egypt - Pyramids

I have heard about this cleverly designed building since a kid, got more fascinated with ancient architecture after a trip to Turkey and realised that history CAN be so rich and full of amazing facts and some fairy tales... Nonetheless, the Pyramids are definitely worth the trip as the last reminding ancient wonder of the world. I was at some of the other ancient wonders of the world previously but found that I was just standing on a pile of rocks, altough the view was inspiring, it was hard to imagine its magnificance.



3. Japan - Tokyo

Since my fetish for Peanuts started, I have been dreaming of going to this city that is crazy over comics characters. Its rich rich diversity of creative juices spilling over every corner of its street is going to be an exciting journey. Each visitor to Tokyo always returns with something about the place that amazes me. Language barrier might be an issue if we visit it Free & Easy style... However, I am sure that I'll need extra luggage space to lug back all my Peanuts favourites hahahaha.... so I can only visit Tokyo when I can afford to purchase whatever I like.... which might take a long long time to happen.

Anyone interested to donate to my Tokyo discovery fund? I'll blog and blog for your money's worth!! *promise*


And my MUST visit place..... Snoopy Town!!



This blog started out with 3 places which I would love to visit..... then I remembered something else!! So here's no. 4!!

4. China - Xi'an: Terroracotta Army

I was very fascinated by the scale of the "fake" army that was built. The amount of energy, resources, money that was poured into ensuring a protected afterlife, the obsession with wealth and grandeur of his death is almost madness to think about. Yet this one man did it.

I was told my R that: today, there are still many many MORE underground tunnels and army/slaves/rooms that were being discovered. There were so many of them that they were uncertain what to do with the newly discovered "treasures". Instead, they were covered up again as determined by the state as to prevent modern day pollution and rapid degradation.

I have not known anyone who has visited this unique army that has a bad review of the place, I am guessing it will be very well worth our time there. I want to spend like 3 full days there.... maybe I will change my mind later... but who cares?? Let's get there first!!



5. South Africa - Wildlife

Wah, this has always been a dream to sleep under the stars in a tent with the giraffes as my "pets", elephants in my backyard and tigers roaming around.... feels like in some movie!! I'm picturing a clear night filled with light from the bright stars. Perhaps also to meet someone with an interesting name?? hee hee
