    Long time no blog!

    Yes, it's been a long time since I've blogged on this blog!
    Oh well, I shall not post anymore pictures we took in the US. If you want to take a look at more just ask me

    Aah, I love the Cantonese way of giving ang baos! Each parent have to give someone an ang bao! Cool hur? Shi'ai's Parents gave us

    Nothing much to say since I've posted all that I wanted to say on my other blog.. Oh well(:

    I'm trying to find the new Simple Plan song but forgot the title of the song! Can anyone out there who knows tell me? THANKS!

    US Piccies [part 2]

    Was back half an hour ago from Shermae's trim. It really made no difference, such a waste of $11...

    Anyways! More US Photos! First up, in front of Uncle Ashok's house in Milpitas. I just realised how much I miss it


    This is us in front of their gorgeous house. The roses are planted by Auntie Lakshmi herself! Beautiful(:


    This was after dinner, at Baskin Robin's ice cream palour. We wanted to go back another time but no chance

    Golden Gate Bridge

    This is Uncle Ashok and Aauntie Lakshmi trying to imitate Shermae. HAH!


    That jacket I was wearing kind sucks...


    Look at Veena!!!


    I love the view! Took loads of pictures of it with my phone...


    Ahh, me and Mae Can't seem to save the clockwise version

    Anyway, Next few pictures are of us at the Grand Canyon! It was REEEALLY CHILLY up there!! Plus, my jacket did not cover till my wrist fully so I kinda stretched it...

    Grand Canyon




    They had this"tribe" performance thingy, pretty cool(:


    Little straw huts They have mud huts too!


    Lunch is served! It was reeeeally delish-!!!


    We could actually take a short hike to the other side!



    There's this sky walk, which we went, and you actually get to walk on 10-inches thick glass! It's really cool and you feel like you are actually flying! There's another helicopter ride which brings you right to the bottom of the Canyon. From there, you will go on a river ride on a boat for about half an hour. You can also take pictures there, I wanted to go for it but my sisters were too scared.

    Hollywood Boulavard

    This place is really cool but very small too. Why does it look so glamorous and long-stretched on television? That's because they block the whole road and covered the shops at the side with those poster thingys!







    And on one of the days in L.A., we went to a hoover dam! It may sound dull but it actually is pretty interesting!




    Our tour guide took this for us, he should try photography! He took another of us in front of "Paris" which is also beautiful(:


    Las Vegas


    They have this place called NewYork NewYork, it's supposed to be another version of the main buildings in NYC like Times Square and stuff(: It's really cool! Thing is, they didn't build the Twin Towers because wen they went to consult a few feng shui masters (who totally don't know one another) they all said not to build the Twin Towers because the pointy top is insulting God, so about a year later it was 911... Outre, hur?


    The hotel with the most rooms!

    We were on the night tour then.





    We were in front of this hotel-name-which-I-can't-seem-to-remember and they have this water show. Much better than Sentosa's Musical Fountain! I kinda forgot the name of that tower...


    This is inside the lobby of the hotel. It's sooo beautiful I tell you(:

    And guess what? This is INSIDE the hotel too! It's somewhat a mall and is a representative of Venis, Paris.

    This "volcano" is outside the reowned hotel, The Mirage. Back then, everyone was competing to have the best hotel. So this guy thought of having this volcano spraying out real fire to attract people.

    Anyway, I'm kinda addicted to It Girl now! Should stop here


    GET LOST RAIN!!

    Sunday... Then Monday

    Gee, my weekend passed so fast, I wonder if other's did too.

    Anyway, my tuition ended at 1pm so now I'm not sure what to do... Tomorrow's my Geog. Common Test, I don't feel like revising. Yet.
    I realised that I was online because I was waiting for you to go online, and that isn't supposed to be it. Damn... Anyways, I'm going down with Shermae to give her moral support for her hair cut/trim. It's a waste of time but that's what sisters are for, c'est la vie! More pictures later on when I'm back. In the mean time, downstairs, I shall revise Geography Yes, I'm FEELING IT!

    Yes indeed, snow is dee-licious!



    Look at Shermae's face!

    Veena must be sleding...


    One on top another! It was great but freezing!!!

    This was just the evening when we reached. It was a full 4 hours car ride! We watched Ratrace on the way there The next day was our snowboarding lesson!
    Ooer... I found this really interesting blog about this guy called Steve Pearson. He's kinda travelling around Asia with his brother and some buddies of his. Pretty interesting! Shall link him!

    That marks the end of our Tahoe trip! Next up, Alcatraz...

    Alcatraz trip on 6th Dec



      
    The island of Alcatraz! It served the army as fortress and military prison, and the Department of Justice as a maximum-security federal penitentiary. I find the history of that place super interesting! If you want to know more you may ask me because I couldn't find their website on the pamphlet...



    Welcome sign(:


    The first building greeting us at the deck. The sign says welcome Indians as in AMERICAN Indians.


    Me and Shermae! That windbreaker is reeeeeeeally poofy!


    Us three at the same spot~


    WE ARE FAMEELEE~


    Us and Mr. policeman and Mr. doogie! Or Ms?


    One of the jail cells... BRRR!


    I was really scared in there...They said someone died in there or something.


    Ice cream is really irrisistable! So I'm gonna stop here for the time being. On the next post I shall upload all the L.A. pictures!
