I’m finally updating regarding my life. REALLYYY SORRY. I wish I had like 48 hours a day.. Really!

Anyway. It was DADDY LOVE’s birthday a couple of days back.

A simple dinner & a Chocolate Banana Secret Recipe cake to celebrate the occasion.

I know my daddy will never visit this place. BUT I still wanna say. I LOVE YOU DADDY! You’re the best Daddy one can ever have!!! <3

Highlight of dinner was this Blue Lobster dish! Can’t exactly remember but it was air-flown somewhere from London?!? I asked a ridiculous question when the dish was served. “Why is the lobster not blue?” Of course it isn’t after its cooked! & Then I recalled I even knew why the reason seafood like prawns and lobsters turn red when cooked… So silly!

Family photos are ultimate love.

I wanna take a family potrait – those big big and framed up ones, sometime soon this year! (As a request for 21st! :D)

They are the only ones who would accede to my camwhoring requests ANYTIME, ANYWHERE. <3 The brothers would grumble non-stop when I request for photos taken! BOO!

LOVE YOU MOMMY AND DADDY! & BROTHERS!

&JUST CURIOUS. Do you guys thing I look more like my daddy or my mommy? Some people say I look more like my dadd while some feels I look more than my momm. What say you? :O

p.s. Did you miss my pet Goldie? I’m gonna update about him next. Stay tuned!!!! :D

Guess what. THESE photos that i’m posting, were taken EXACTLY one year ago.. OMG!

Buildings around the street. I actually forgot what is this building..hee.

Still buildings..

Hehehehehe, love the ballooons. Can I have them!

The factory outlet store we went to..

it was a very huge place but i got nothing out of it.. mostly too expensive! ;(

During dinnerrrrr!

hehehe i think they both look so cute! i’m like totally self-obsessed with my parents! but i really love them loads :D!

This was the restaurant we had our dinner!

they have quite a nice ambience! hehehe.

Our tableeeee!

we had..pork knuckles (i think) that night! our last local dinner in germany! (: and it totally tasted like the chinese roasted meat. shao rou. lol. i can’t type in chinese!

Beer beer beer..!!

the whole group of ~40 people drank a total of 52 glasses of beer!! remember to take in account people like ME who don’t drink at all! sooo some people can really drink! like 3-4 glassessss omg. i think its 500mL each!

Yaaaa, our pork knuckles! they are grilled to perfection here! HAHAHA.

The control tower @ the olympic stadium! i think its 290m..

its the Munich Olympic Stadium anyway. which hosted Olympics in the year..1972? I thinkkkkk so.

I like this! the angle is special!

Met two super cute dogs there! Awwwwwwww~ Daddy was touching one of them!

Uhm..around the city centre I believe..

the centre of their market..knowingly the Marienplatz!

seriously the tour agency who arranged our itenary ought to be more cautious lor! it was planned for us to visit this place on Sunday. and when we were there. none of the stalls were open. NONEEE. haha. so many aunties and uncles couldnt wait to buy local sausages etc. but they were all so disappointed!

City area.

i still ♥♥ their buildings. pretty max.

I can't remember what building is this..

either the palace of justice court? or national state opera house? or royal residence..? i really have no idea! :(

see those lil' cartoon like characters..?

those characters looking like wooden toys can move when the clock strikes ~12pm! we were there at 11plus nearing 12 and we waited for it. apparently many many peopleeeee were waiting to see it move! hahaha. (:

Woahhhhhh!!!

Of course its not mine…! HAHAHAA. (:

okay with that. i’ll end my posts on my germany trip! i realllly hate the internet speed for its really a torture to wait for the photos to load and upload etc.

gonna continue on BKK trip next :)))

if you want the complete set of photos, check out my facebook profile :D provided we’re friends. haha.

bread, glorious bread! I LOVE BREAD! they have 129340149124 types of bread available lor. in different shapes and sizes! so awesome! its especially good when we eat it fresh from the oven, warm, and the butter melts when we apply it across the bread!

this was the lake opposite my hotel that I mentioned in my previous post. PRETTTTTY right? ((: and yes, its frozennnnn!

i wanted sooooo much to walk on the ice! but mommy keep telling me not to. actually im also afraid of thin iceeeeee, later i fall into the lake! but hey! look at the foot prints! someone ventured past the bridge already!! :O should be safe..

oookay this is the front view of my hotel! :))) its AlpenBlick Hopfen Fussen hotel! I remember very clearly that this hotel is one of my favourite because it provides free wifi! and the rooms are decent in terms of size and nice!

people always say even the grass on the other side of the country is greener. but seriously. this is not grass. but definitely prettier right!!!! love all the snow mountains lor! breathtaking views lor! especially in the morning with fresh airrrrr!!

mummy love and me on the busssssss! :D:D

we were actually on our way towards the Swarovski Kristallwelten galleria! they have very pretty exhibits inside! (: i think its sorta their main main swarovski factory or something! or their main gallery!

our reflections!!

one of their exhibits. it looks abit dull here but its totally nice and shiny when seen in real because of the glittering swarovski crystals!! I love Swarovski!!!

another one! a dancing moon and sun! hahaha.

tried on their hair band which had crystals on top of the ribbony. but it was way too overpriced. like around RM90+, S$40+? just for a hairbanddddd? no way!

the outside of the gallery! mommy washing her hair!

the YES TO ALL was totally made of many many crystals. super BLINGZ lor under the sun!!!

yeap yeap, i likey!

MY SHOPPPPP!!! i wished it was! hahaha it was selling all the branded stuffs!

we went into another swarovski shop! but its just a shop in the city with a mini gallery. very prettyyyyy love this furry couch!!

hehehehhehe! <3

inside the mini gallery! so pretty! it has the NARNIA movie feel, in the winter scenes!

so winter-ish! everything in white!

the board in the restaurant where we had our dinner. so prettily written!!

artistikkkk people.

morning view from my hotel roooom! :))

view along the road….picturesque!!

afterwhich. we headed to a Salt Mine!! and we had to get dressed in their attire in order to keep our clothes clean. everybody looked like they were from mental hospital :P

the tunnel we had to get through via a ‘train’ to get inside the mine.

all kinds of salts! with different composition and percentage of salt content!

hehehe. on board a ‘boat’. a huge one that can carry 40+ people. across to the inner are of the mine!

this is the ‘boat’. see the pretty lightings? this salt mine is totally changed to be a tourist attraction actually. no longer used as a real salt mine to get salt!

the guideeee explaining! i think his uniform is damn cute! :D

hehehehehe.

loooook! like mental patients not? hahahaha! we were actually waiting for the train! to go back to the main entrance of the salt mine!

our tour guide and the salt mine guide! heh.

the outside of the entrance of the salt mineeeeee. ((:

walking towards the city centre (shopping area) of Salzburg! :))) The birthplace of Mozart!!! Still lovin’ their architectures. but the photo is destroyed by the vandalised railing lor! got dunno what advertisement!

LV!

hehehe, camwhored in hotel room while roomie bathed. love this photo! :p

me and daddy love!

actually what we’re looking at was the church with a red ‘top’. you can spot it easilyyyy the tallest building in here!

one of the scene in the movie ‘The Sound of Music’. a very old but famous movieeee. i actually only heard about it during the trip, lol.

with usssssss!

i feel that even their trees are artistic. without leaves also nice!!

very beautiful scenery yeah? the bus just stopped along the way for us to take some pictures! ((:

this photo is awesomeee. so pretty!

mommy love and meeee.

and an incomplete group photo!! (:

cannot emphasize how much i love the scenery over there!!!

this is the church where the lead actor & actress in ‘The Sound of Music’ got married..

a real group photo! but i doubt its complete actually. some people went to the loo.

saw some cute local kids along the way. awwwwww~

they said hello and smiled to me!!

the inside of the church..looks really majestic!!

their botak trees are beautifullllll!

<3!

the garden without any flowers because it was still winter.! also a scene in the movie. seriously this town is all about the movie lor! which i had totally no idea about initially.

this is the place where mozart was born! seriously that pink building opposite the road! haha. this is in Salzburg, anyway. pardon me i have no idea why are my photos abit jumbled! hehehe.

the yellow building, is the back of the building where Mozart grew up..he shifted from that pink building to here when he was..i-forgot-what-age! sorry! lol

i think this is Mozart’s sister’s house. okay gotta change what i said. this town (Salzburg) is all about the movie and Mozart. :))

horse carriages again!

a view from Festung Hohensalzburg. probably some castle? because it was really tall. ahahha. i can’t remember what exactly it is!

this is the map. looks like a castle right! like protected from the rest of the area.

really really huge chess set. hahahaha.

there’s a person on top of the golden ball!!

and finalllly.. the front view of Mozart’s place!

I’m ending the post now.. crazy loads of photos this entry. i think it comprises of photos from 3 days! i got myself mixed up as well.. so just enjoy the photos! :)

I’ll end this trip with a one last post, soon! haha. but its really tiring t upload all these photos! kills me i took more than 2 hourssssssss! so i hope you enjoyed!

But for now I’ma start with my Germany/Austria trip which I’ve procrastinated for a long time!

This was the first activity we had after arrival upon the Frankfurt International Airport – a cruise along Loreley Rhine River from St. Goar to Boppard. (background picture of the collage is the scenary along the river.) I was just looking around because they pretty much looked the same and didn’t even pay much attention. So much so that even when the cruise took a detour, I wasn’t aware! D: The sausages with mashed potatoes and some preserved vegetable that tasted damn sour (below the sausages!), was our first local meal in a restaurant! And for that first night, we stayed in a hotel in Rothenburg which unfortunately I did not manage to capture a photo of the hotel!

Some photos taken before our lunch! :D

The next morning we took a walk around the City which was supposed to be done the night before but because it was tooo cold at night, our tour guide only brought us around in the morning after breakfast! :D I simply love their architecture. Why can’t buildings in Singapore/Malaysia be abit like that? :)))

The three of us infront of their Planlein Square building in the middle of the city! :))

Afterwhich, we checked out of the hotel and continued our journey to the next city – Fuessen! My favourite city among the few that we visited, actually. Because there was SNOW! :D Also, we got the visit the Neuschwanstein Castle built by King Ludwig II (I think). Its one of the most beautiful castle I’ve visited up-to-date and its my favourite for now! (Got to visit a few castles in Scotland when I was there for my attachment!)

Snow snow snow. BUT. my feet was suffering the whole day. because.. the adidas running shoe that I wore apparently had some ‘holes’ below the soles, supposingly to aid in running or what. AND i totally forgot about that and happily followed the instructions of my physiotherapist to wear ‘sports shoes’ to protect my feet. dangz. my feet was damn cold the whole day! thank goodness the other days weren’t that bad!

I personally love love love this photo alot! thanks to one of the uncle ( I can’t remember who :P, but is one of daddy’s friend) who took this candid shot before we stood in position! haha. the picture depicts totally happiness la, so surreal. but of cos its not posed.

hehehhe, in position! :))

a sneak preview of the castle! i. was. amazed. by. how. magnificent. and. grand. it. looked. I LOVE KING LUDWIG II LAAA. and anyway. according to our tour guide, the disney logo was designed using this NEUSCHWANSTEIN castle! how coool.

nah, here’s the Disney logo. do you think it resembles?

Me and Mommy♥♥♥ in our beanies! SO CUTE I LOVE THIS PHOTO MAX! :D we actually had 3 similar such beanies for all 3 of us but we didn’t get to take a picture with it together because we forgot to bring one of them out! :(

Daddy & Mommy ♥♥♥!

they’re wearing beanies! HAHAHAHA. :D cute max!

Mommmmy happy to see snow! HAHAHA. Its not her first time to see snow actually. but prolly her first time seeing it w me, and asking her to pose =P!

the gateway(ticket) to my favouritest castle! :))

so fairytale-ish right!! horse carriages. to bring us up the castle. awwww. are there pumpkin carriages as well? :D the horses are pretty!! but i really pity them. :C its really hard work.

I think this photograph is the best among the rest. Best view to capture almost the whole view of the castle♥.

check out a few others..

memememeeeee with the castle! :))

another scenic view from the castle!

thats daddy and mommy with the pretty castle!

the owner (I dont know what to call him!) of the horse carriage was damn nice he stopped his horses to let me and mommy take photos!! :D sweeeet!

and…all these are pretty much the photos taken for the day. we stayed in a very pretty hotel situated opposite a lake (which was frozennnn!). shall continue in my next post! :D

:D
