Honeymoon day 3 – milan to florence to pisa to florence to venice.
Its a day of neverending train rides! Checking out of our hotel in milan ay 6.30am in the morning. Self shot at recept. Did you spot the new miu miu? Check out my messy hair. Cant quite bother to maintain in italy especially with the winds blowing it into a mess every other moment. One last shot of the duomo in darkness. We didnt have dinner the night before because we were too tired and all der did was buy macs back while i collapsed in bed. Trenitalia. Expensive rides. Think we spent close to €400 for all the train rides that we’ll be taking for the entire trip. I…

More of day 2 in milan.
We roamed the streets once again after the duomo visit even though we pretty much covered everything on the first day. Spotted this window showcase with loads of sopie kinsella books in italian. Love their pretty colors and the muted pastel colours! Too bad, i cant read italian, else i would have considered buying one of these books for keeps. Lunch was at this replay restaurant. Though in italy, its mostly alfresco dinning where you can people watch.. We chose the indoor seats for this restaurant instead. With the alfresco dinning also comes with loads of cigarettes’ smoke as diners are allowed to puff away anytime. Our bread. Funny how…

More of the duomo in milan.
I have no idea why i couldnt continue the earlier post. It keeps crashing when i tried to edit it. Like after 20 tries, decided to post it abd continue in a separate post. X.silly visits the duomo too! V excited! A shot with me and a shot, all by himself. Duomo and part of the piazza below. Love this shot of the piazza with the shadow of the duomo. Right at the roof top. This is the other side of the duomo where its equally beautiful. I think i could easily spend the entire day there at the roof top reading a book or something but i had to…

Honeymoon day 2 – roaming around milan.
Its the duomo visiting day! Funny how we didnt visit it the first day especially since it was just in front of our hotel! According to der, he said this is one of the grandest duomo he has ever seen. I cant decide between the one that i have seen in spain and this, but grand indeed it was. Frontal view. Taken at an angle. Us with the duomo. The interior with really tall ceilings. The beautiful stained glass windows thats not showing clearly from my phone camera. The intricate designs at the front of the duomo and the beautiful paintings hanging. All the monumentos in the duomo. This part…

Day 2 of married life.

Our adventure begins NOW! Posted on 7.09am [milan clock] and 1.09pm [spore clock]. Wish i had intermet access wherever i go. Could you see the sunrise from the distant? Pardon the dusty stained windows. Posted via LiveJournal app for iPhone.

the family
the festive period is a bad time to catch up on my blog entries since I have so much work to do – housework/cleaning up the house, serving my elders, being the unofficial official photographer. last night, when i had the most free time, i spent hours going through my mobile hard disk and pulling out the family pictures to be plonk into the 15″ digital photo frame that my uncle bought. 6 months ago, the family gathered for grandpa’s birthday and we took a road trip to malacca that i totally forgot to blog about. it was a rather stressful trip but a good attempt as we got everyone…

taiwan, day 4 (part 2)
before popping over to 淡水渔人码头, we passed by this surf beach where a lot of beach boys and girls were surfing. it was far from the scene that you see in singapore. and you know, me being ME, i wanted to take peektures!! wahhaha. so cheng chieh stopped the car by the side of the road and we popped out for some quick photo-taking! 😛 our reflection in the car window, you can see a faint outline of cheng chieh in the car if u look closely. 🙂 and der looked surprisingly fat in this picture! haha. some interesting sculptures that we saw further down the journey.. when we finally…

the hong kong trip
i keep staring at the pictures wondering where to start blogging. i realised i didnt take a lot of pictures this time… arriving at the airport in hong kong, in jetstar asia.. our airport transfer tickets to derrick’s 姑妈’s place. here we go! after arriving in maritime square, we were trying to figure how to walk over to the house when we went to the wrong exit and decided to take a cab instead. quite an interesting experience. i didn’t know we had to pay $5 for each piece of luggage in the boot! we kept thinking we must have been axed, but well, subsequently, i realised it is indeed…

Back to reality..
The view from 星光大道. The trip’s over and i’ve been back in sing on wednesday night. Spent the whole of thursday drifting in and out of sleep, recovering from the lack of sleep, resting the overworked bod, the swollen legs and feet and suffering from stomach cramps.. I finally got to appreciate singapore’s weather cos hk is so so hot! Decked in shorts/berms and tank tops every day, the weather is still too overbearing. I’m as dark as an indian now, with all sorts of ugly tan lines all over.. Will write about the whole trip when i have the time.. Now it’s back to work life. Drats. [mobile post…
