iPad, finally

Also made my way past Sim Lim Square to try to get hold of a iPad. After running around in a lot of shops haggling for price I decided to pay a premium to get hold of one finally…

Ended up with a 64GB 3G version which is really nice so far. It is truly a great concept even though it will never replace a stationary computer.

Midsummer preparations

IKEA Singapore

Under 18 and in school uniform...

Passing by Singapore for meetings this week allowed me to pass by IKEA to stack up on some good holesome non-halal stuff that is needed for true midsummer feeling. Specifically Swedish vodka, matjesill and of course some Swedish candy like salt liquorish.

Beautiful morning sky

Woke up early this morning and there was a beautiful morning sky. Snapped some pictures with the tripod and created a HDR file of a sequence.

Golf at Tasik Puteri

Early morning and beautiful weather

Teeing off

Panorama of the course

Went up at 5:30 this morning to go and play golf at a course I haven’t played before (Tasik Puteri). Really nice course and I must say it ranks among the top three ones I’ve played in KL area.

Making our way back to KL

Classy ride to the jetty

Not the safest load of tree trunks

Today it was time to make our way back to KL to meet up with the parents again. The hotel gave us a classy ride in a tractor down to the jetty. On the way back there was a lot of timber trucks on the motorway and it didn’t feel to safe looking on how they secured the load.
