Halo, Ju

It has been 12 years I have not been called Ju since I left SMBTR. Someone text me recently by addressing me `Ju'... This recall my sweet memory during school life in SMBTR...

Luwi, a stranger that came into my life and bring happiness to me. From a mystery customer that I thought was an abang or pakcik when he placed a purchase order; turn out to be a young gentlemen that I can make friend with.

"Wish you meet your jodoh soon ya!" I am going to miss you for some time...

I cannot predict what will happen in the future but I should appreciate what I have at this moment. Dear Princess Alicia and sxxxy daddy, I love you.

Souvenir from Vietnam

Normally, I forget to buy souvenir for myself when I go travel. This time, I got a bookmark, one purple coloured raincoat and a double layered jacket.

Quan An Ngon Restaurant

This is a small scaled hawker center. We walked around the stalls and order our dishes. I like the prawn cracker here. Very crispy!

This is the first time for Jenda (a Hanoi Kids member) to have a meal in Quan An Ngon as well. She is a beautiful girl with cheerful smile.

Temple of Literature

Temple of Literature is also known as Van Mieu. The courtyards was built based on the concept of `Ying Yang'. There are three doors to enter each courtyard. The middle door is catered for the teachers. One side door is for those students who have brilliant mind (`wen') while another side door is for those who are good in martial art (`wu').

This is a favourite spot for outdoor wedding photo shooting among the local couples in Hanoi.

Cat Cat Village

We are honoured to be the guests in Dung's new house @ Cat Cat Village. We had a simple yet awesome meal here.

We were invited to try the local rice wine. During a black Hmong wedding, those who could not finish the rice wine offered to them will be punished to eat the fat part of a pork. Else, they need to leave the venue where the function is held.

Ham Rong Mountain

Ham Rong mountain is my favourite place in this trip. Easy trek and enjoy a great view of Sapa town. It has a very colourful garden.

We went for a cultural performance here. Later, we put on the minority ethnic traditional costume for photo shooting. Pity me, I have to wear the shirt for men (i am too fat) and match it with a skirt that can only cover the front part... We laugh a lot at this moment...

What 20,000 Dong can buy?

We get 700g of plum mix with cherry for 7,000 Dong and one whole big sized pineapple for 10,000 Dong. All these for less than Rm 3 ??? This is a good deal.

On our way back to Hanoi, we bought 1/2 kilo of peach @ 20,000 dong. The baguette sold by the stall vendor was hot and taste good. It was priced @ 10,000 Dong each
