Beijing - Spring 2011

Long time not post anything on this blog.
Many things come with worries and sorrows. Life is not easy for anyone, for love and survival.

Just back from Beijing with many feelings. Beijing is so beautiful in spring with nice weather - 19 - 27 o C at day time, a lot of blossom over the city.



Three full days were not enough to study the ancient city with long history and many legends of people who made the Beijing famous.

Beijing, I will turn back one day...

Island... Blue!



Once more time visit the island...
The blue island with calm sea, crystal clear water and full of feeling from last 4 months till there, fresh and dreaming.

The below photo was taken in a cloudy day, but you till can see the blue of the sea and the water was quiet as a lake.



Three boats have just back from the long days on the sea for catching fishes. It must be a good catching since you can see busy fishermen were cleaning up the boats with joy. They waved and huh hah to me when I was taking photos.


Stopped and bought some dry squids, enyoy the smell of ocean by other way... Mum um, so nice!



When will I go back and with whom?

A beautiful holiday at Vinpearl Resort & Spa

A beautiful resort, a perfect place for a good rest, enjoy fun and spend time with family!
A green place with perfect facilities that meet your expectation. Good food, nice sea, many things for your enjoy and regret for time flies!!!

Typical tropical view with coconut tree and white sand. Leaved all business or daily worrying at the city, clean your heart with fresh air from sea and shadow of coconut trees.




Relax on walking on paths between bungalows or blocks.




A corner of the sea town with boats, drawing a peace and lively photo.



Beautiful pottery ! Special bake method to make the potteries have 2 colours.



Thanks life for giving me have the such happiness beside lovers!

Macau - Oct 2008 (cont)

Goodbye the casino, we visited the Macau Museum.

The road leading to the Museum is made by rocks and is one of the first road of Macau. This road was built by sailors of trading ships from Portugal to Macau. When you step on each rock, you can feel like touching on the history of the last few hundred years, from very beginning of the city...


I visisted the museum many times and I always had special feeling once I went back. On the hill facing to the sea, we enjoyed fresh air under shadow of lot of old trees. Let the wind fondle your face, feel the fragrance of the sea, sunshine of a beautiful autum day, then you will know how happy you are at the moment...


There are canons direct to the sea....
Part of the old fortress, covered with green moss now... They made paths for tourists but till keep the area for us to see how it was, from that days...


This is the famous church with 3 times get fire. The front was built by marble so still there for us to know that used to be a church. It become one of Macau's symbols.



This was used to be rooms of priests, now it was built as rooms with glass to memorise them. 150 peoples died on the last serious fire...




Must say byebye to the Museum and the church, we returned the rock road where has a traditional bakery with very appealled smell calling you step in the shop.

This is a traditional bakery. The fragrance filled your sense of smell...
I wished to jump out of our bus to taste all of eye-catching cakes showing there.

Ah, this is pork barbecue, a specialtity of Chinenese. It is really nice, go well with beer as snack for chit chat at weekend with your friends or lovers.


The babecue is sold at another shop, where is very famous with Husband and Wife cakes. Husband cake is pure sweet meanwhile Wife cake has both sweet and salt taste. They present for love of husband and wife, has both sweet and salt.
The cakes also have very nice legend talking about love of a rich young lady to a poor guy. She came to help the guy to make him rich as what her family ask for if he want to marry her. She cooked cake and sold. The cake was so nice and became famous so, the guy became rich soon. Then he did marry the girl. That is a happy ending love story.
One more special thing form Macau. You can see the road name sign, it is made by ceramic ! It looks strange and clean. I like them more than the plastic sign with boring white and dark blue colours.


Time flies. 3 days passed in a wink. End a very memorable trip.
Bye Macau and Hongkong.
Then ... back to work!

Macau - Oct 2008

So busy that I have not posted something about the trip till now.
I have a relax trip to Macau with a close friend invitation. 3 days with half day for a seminar and 2 days for travel, enjoyed the town with plenty of casino is about half day and 2 nights left.

We really had good time, do nothing, think nothing, just spending the time with love to the life, enjoyed each moment when you till alive, healthy and had chance to share happiness with loving persons.

Chap Lap Kok Hong Kong Airport is perfect with its design, organisation and service. I love the airport, it was graded the Top of 10 best Airport in the world in 2008. We stayed for 5 hours waiting for Turbo Jet to Macau - No tickets to go earlier so just hanging around in the airport... A lot of shops, bookstore, ah, one Starbuck Cafe so we enjoyed spending time there...
We had nothing to rust, we enjoyed any moment there with friends.
The boat was great with nice facility.

The boat was looked from outside.



This, its internal facility. Nice boat, right?



We reached Macau about 6:00pm. Long wait for the bus picking us to dinner.
Our first dinner in Macau was a seafood buffet, quite nice foods, especially sweets and ice creams! Then followed by a special show, Sexy Show... Hah, the girls dance was good, one of them is very good dancer. Fantastic, I enjoyed her performane. The rest was not impressed, like fake, no feeling at all!
The follow day we attended the seminar till 2:00pm. Had a Chineses lunch and went straight to the largest Casino in Asia. Macau is a very nice city. The key business is serve to casinos.
The casino is really huge and beaufiful. You can not complain anything there, design, organisation, hotel, shows, shops, foods...
This is the largest casino in Macau. You can shop and enjoy full day and not cover all the places.
They build hotel, rivers, cities, shopping centers inside the building then made you though you were outside the street. They have a big shopping complex where I did buy a lot of clothes...
See how big the casino.




The casino is huge. We lost in the casino, did not find where the main entrance was.


Look like a street in Europe! A busy street with many shops and food centers. You can see the sky with clouds... enjoy the beautiful weather... It was bout 15 C degrees.

A bit cold so that you need wearing coat... You can see people from everywhere in the world.

How would you feel?


A nice river with handsome guys and charming girls from Ytalia on these boats. Just buying ticket then you can be on board, starting a nice trip along the river in a space was fulled of wonderful sweet Ytalia songs.


Really memorable moment for being there.




They had show with nice Ytalia songs. All created a marvellous space ...

Dalat - Phan Thiet trip

I had a business trip to Dalat and PhanThiet 3 months ago. Really a nice places, I love the 2 towns and have visited there many times, esp Dalat. I stayed in Novotel Dalat and Phan Thiet. The scenery at Novotel Phanthiet is marvelous.

Novotel Resort Phan Thiet. Beautiful!














Phan Thiet is less opportunity to visit since I am not prefered sea as high land. I love highland with the cold weather and the grass, trees overthere are too beautiful. Phan thiet to me only is sand hills. I love sandhill with many endless yellow hills.

I was there at a full moon night, laid down on an upper sand hill, looked the moonlight with the sound of sea waves. How nice it was! I can not make it again even I have many opportunities later. The sweet memory is never come twice!

But this time I really have a good time there with my family. I enjoyed the hammok near the sea, the wind, sound of sea waves, blue sky, the nights there are great too. Novotel facilities is the best in Phan Thiet. I love the hotel.

Some photos for your curriosity.

Pls try if you have chance or make it happen! It will great, I promise!



Dalat with many places serves this kind of foods. Lovely! Walked in light rain with umbrella, (you see my one ? ) ate home-made yogurt at a small shop along the street, it was very nice!
