Flying, baby!


Yes. Quite literally.

I have decided. I will reward myself with an international holiday destination once, every year. I owe it to myself after some hard work

My mental and physical state implore, beg and grovel at any chance of rest.

I have therefore, decided to obey.

Question. Where to go? I thought about Hong Kong. Mainly because it is only RM389 to and fro. It was RM241. But due to some of my friends indecisiveness..and the dilly-dallying of days and the case of oh-i-am-so-interested-but-you-ask-who and who-they-want-to-go-or-not. The nest day I checked. Prices went up to RM389. Nevertheless, still cheap.

Now. Another case would be my father's suggestion of a family trip and also one of my dream travels. Siem Reap,Cambodia. What's there? One of the 7th wonder of the worlds. A UNESCO heritage site.

The Angkor Wat.


Majestic ruins. Breathtaking sceneries. And one of the scenes of Lara Croft, Tomb Raider. Yes. The one that have Angelina Jolie running around in short pants, guns on both hands and a long pig-tail.

Or..........I could opt for Hong Kong. Well, it's not exactly in my list of Places-I-Want-To-Go. But, there's Hong Kong Disneyland..Though I would rather go Florida's. They have Harry Potter's Land there!!! If only US currency would drop. But then..Not a good idea. US economy drop = Recession.

I guess...Cambodia wins. RM476 per person. Inclusive of flight, night stay (3 nights) and breakfast. Pretty good offer. Only setback is that I would need to go KL for the flight.

Absurd. Penang is so much nearer. There are no direct flights to Siem Reap from Penang. I would need to go down and come back up again.. Grrrr...
