Christmas Vacation?

Part I - Genting Highlands then HK Disneyland.

We spent two consecutive years of Xmas holiday at Genting Highlands in 2005-06. why? One and only reason, the kids. Kids love Genting Highlands because of the theme park and hubby love it because of cool atmosphere and ca$ino.

But, we can't just go for the 3rd yr in a row to Genting Highlands for Xmas, right?

I have been hinting directly to hubby about planning for Xmas vacation to HK Disneyland since two yrs ago. It was not long before when we had moved into the new house, the idea again pops out in several recent discussions when the scent of Xmas season is nearer. Due to the fact that it would have cost us some good saving we had for the new house deco, we have been pending this idea for now (we agreed)

Recently, hubby fren made a good offer. He has tons of Cathay Pacific Airlines Marco Polo mileages that willing to offer in great discount rate. The itch rose again, shld we or shld we not taking this advantage to fulfill our mission to take kids to HK Disneyland for Xmas...

To be Continued...

Bonsai, Gardening

Bonsai is a Japanese word, 盆栽. Bonsai is actually two words, "Bon", and "Sai". The word "Bon" means "tray" and "Sai", "growing" or "planting".

What I like about Bonsai is that the shape itself is like a miniature big tree. It gives me a cooling and relaxing feeling. Buying a Bonsai and keeping it at home is easy but... it is not easy to grow and manage them. Bonsai needs thorough care and it takes time to grow into a beautiful plant.

How I wish I could have many different Bonsais decorated at home. Any of the below one would be nice, isn't it?


These are special ones.. with it's trunk grew winding and made into words.
The seller told me that it take years for these to form into wording and because of that each of them costs few hundred ringgit.










I wonder if I have even only 1 of it, do I know how to take care and have it continue growing healthyly? I think I need to read more of bonsai books before I could own one.
