Merry Malacca ii

Hi there...

Lets continue. Here, pic of 1 of hundreds heritage buildings in Malacca.

Back to Malacca's stori,

After the dinner, we decided to scoured the town. The initial plan is to try the night river cruise, but seems like all are not in mood as we are all bloated, hihih.

Not until we spot the "Menara Taming Sari'..

Wahh..macam best je...ala2 Genting's 'Solero Shot', but this kind of a 'slow-motion shot'So, whatelse, all of us pun menggelikan diri & paid for the ride. If am not mistaken it costs us RM15/adult.

While queing...(jgn salah faham, u only got the seat when u're towards end of q...not bad tho..).
More us!!

Here it comesss!!!! yaayyyy...(mcm UFO kan?)Just before we enter the 'taming sari'-read the signage please..Inside the Taming Sari

Nice, beautiful night views...sorry, cant share it..we move around..and around. All pics captured badly..huhu..

**************

Enough with the ride, then we walk around Jonker's Walk..hmm..hangus gak la 2, 3puluh...grrr...

Beautiful decorated & glittering beca
The next day..at the apartment.

Kids played hide & seek. No one'd ever realised T is hiding behind atuk. they couldnt found her, hihih...my girl..she's just so petit.

While on our way back...The Eye of Malaysia - now in M'ca.

Went back straight to KL right after that...

And thats it....(sorry..damn lazy to write lately..just enjoy those pics)

Merry Malacca i

Hmmmph... a backdated story again...

It was somewhere in June, the whole family went to Malacca for a wedding.

The kids at the kenduri day. All are mum's cucus, all in, except for the boy. He refused to take pics.

Cheezeee..with some of family members the other day.
Photo-photo time.
Tengok la peghangai gue...malas giler nak pakai baju kurung to wedding yg jauh2..hehe..

own shoot-lihat lah, berpeluh2..

We checked-in at one of apartment nearby bandar hilir.

..night time, dinner at Medan Ikan Bakar-even, i'd forgetten where it was, huhu

But it was not that bad, coz the service is quite fast tho orang ramai giler, almost full-house.

With mummy...(memang daku ni muka budak nakal kan?)

The foodies that night
Eat till your bloat!!

Among the participant that night.

..and more...

The jubilant kiddos. So happy since she's surrounded by her cousins..

After the dinner, we plan to ronda2 Malacca town...more pics in my next posting,

-to be continued-

Adieu...

Yahoo..

Yahooo...our predication was right!!! yippeee!!!!

Me & geng scored perfect 10 for our predictions.

Spain take on Netherlands for 1-0....

If am not mistaken, no one predict for Spain vs Netherlands, as most of them predicted the South American teams will won the cup this round.

Hmm...what a coincidence; we predicted correctly & TEPAT pulak tu.
BTW, our prediction was submitted way before Mr.Paul d' Octopus came out with his, ya...our closing date was on 2nd July.

Hahaha...what in the world....

Champion of the World

Finally...the finals is here....

Its between the Spaniards & the Dutch

Pheww...never thot that our predictions made its way correctly.

Hmm...i dont really fancy any of team, so i just dont even care who's gonna win.

To me, who played well will win, i.e. the best team wins.

But, since we've bank on Spain to win, so.....go Espana, go!!!

*************

As usual, I'd already applied for my leave. Ye la, normally the finals wont be finished during full time.

And in 2006, when France met Italy, me & H went to B.Bintang to watched it...hmm..what a memory...cuma tak best, coz takde big screen - tak puas nengok.

*************

Ok, back to 2010,

Me & H siap buat toasted bread & coffee...nyummy...

It was indeed a good game where Spaniards have 57% possesion of the ball.

Both teams shows their enthusiasm, and passion towards winning the match.

What bothers me is that the game is quite harsh in the beginning with 5 yellow cards to the Dutch in the 1st half.

And the above?? this is so..unforgiven & unforgettable..

How can that be? Lucky the ref. is still not that tired, so he wont flag the red card.

After struggling the 90mins, they need an extra time, where somewhere at 26th mins, or 4mins before the end of the extra time, Iniesta made his magical touch.

Ouchh!!! it went thru?

Yup...

My congratulations went to the Spaniards, the double champ.

good job boys!!!

Yes...they've proven they're the best: Euro Champ & the World's champ.

The same as France, the came World's champ first, followed by Euro champ.

Congratulations agian.

Thats the end of the world cup.....

I hate when something's over...

World Cup 2010-3rd Place

Tonite....its between German & Uruguay.

My vote goes to German & even the famous Mr.Paul had also choosen German's flag

Tonite..its between these 2..Forlan & Klose...(but sorry, Klose is not playing- missed the match)

Never thot Uruguay can go this far.

But, FYI, Uruguay is the 1st World Cup champion, hoccay?
German won 3-2. Too bad Forlan's final free kick hit the post. Else..there'll be extra time!!! Yayyy...I love extra-time when it is a weekend match, hehe..



The 3rd place is officially goes to.... German (Again...)

Congratulations, they showed a really good match. Fast pace & so much of attacking, but I guess the Spaniards managed to read their game.

World Cup 2010 Updates iii

Semifinals Updates

4 teams are qualified for the semifinals.

..And by this time, me & geng have completed our 'charity' and our 1st choice of match to be in the final is: Spain vs Netherlands.

We submitted 2 entry form. 1st form, we bet on South America teams i.e. Brazil vs Argentina in the final, & for the 2nd entry, we bet on Europe teams i.e. Spain/Holland.

If Spain won 1-0..wahhhh....

***********

Going back to our semis, as predicted, Holland to swipe it. Yes, they took on Uruguay for 1-0. Robben wif my fav Urugien..haha

As for the 2nd semis between Germany & Spain, surprisingly, Spain has took on Germany for 1-0. waduh2...this is very unpredicted. Bt the way, Spain showed that they really have a strong midfielder, well-controlled of ball & understandings.

Not forgetting, they have one of my fav. keeper-Iker Casillas.

Besides Buffon, I can always count on Casillas in penalties.

Back to the game...

Germans look frustrated. And how cant they be, coz in 2006, they'd loose to Italy which made them finish 3rd, against Brazil

***********

So, in 2010, German will meet Uruguay for the 3rd & 4th placing.

Dont Cry For Me ..Argentina...

This WC 2010..for some reason, it was so much of 'upset'.

Besides the elimination of the 2 giants, now, it is the time for the Argentiniens..my 2nd favourite team.

They got eliminated by my 3rd favourite-Germany.

Messi cant really outshines. He was well guarded & locked. poor Messi, I dont think he'd ever scored in this WC.

***************

The overjoyed crowds.

Despite all happenings, my fav Argentinien is still Mr. Gabriel Batistuta.

Tho he dont played quite sometime (dah pencen), but he is still one of my fav footballer.

Adios,

World Cup 2010 Updates i

This year shows how the big 2 football giants got eliminated during the 1st round.

Yes..they were my Italy and France, which they was 2006 WC Champion & runner-up respectively.

Of coz...I felt like wanna gave-up watching the WC for at least 2 days...(in the state of mourning la konon..) but I just couldnt do it. Theres still plenty of matches to be watched.

Captain of the sorrow
With the 2 BIG Giants eliminated, the following teams were finally managed to proceed:
Group A: Uruguay & Mexico (unexpected for Uruguay-this is suppose to be France)
Group B: Argentina & South Korea (congrates S.Korea, at least a rep. for Asia)
Group C: USA & England (why must it be so much hu-ha on Englands ability to proceed to 2nd round? hmm)
Group D: Germany & Ghana
Group E: Netherlands & Japan (huye for Japan!!-another Asia's rep)
Group F: Paraguay & Slovakia (Slovakia really cant fit in, it was just Italy's imperfect/poor performance)
Group G: Brazil & Portugal
Group H: Spain & Chile
