Day 3: Winter Break 2011

Hmm.. today I don't know what to do, so I just stay home. I'm thinking of buying a tea jug ... well its actually a coffee press like this one here:

I've been wanting to buy this thing ever since we moved in to our new place. Moreover, i just got these dried tea leaves from my friend. They smell so good... I can hardly wait to taste them.

So I guess I'll wait for my hubby to come home and then we can go buy the tea press or coffee press. Hmm.. I might need to ask him to go home early since we are going to send off our friends at SFO tonight. We will also send off our other friends tomorrow night. This year's Christmas will not be as fun as last year =(

Orlando / Florida Visit General Tips

Hi everyone! I just got back from my Orlando, Florida trip. It was super fun! I am trying to write in detail about the park that we visited and the rides that we took .. however, as usual it will take some time before the posts are ready. Yes, I will divide the Florida trip stories into several posts. Meanwhile, here are some general tips for visiting theme parks in Orlando, Florida. Let me start with where to stay. I don't remember if I have mentioned about this before in my previous posts ... So, basically I bought the theme parks vacation deal from Costco Travel. I did try to purchase the trip separately (hotel, car, theme parks tickets, and plane tickets) on several different travel websites like Expedia, Hotwire, Kayak, etc. However, I found that the price difference was really small. So we decided to skip all the hassle and just purchased the whole vacation package from Costco. Costco gave us different total price depending on how long we stay and where we ...

15

What is it with 15? Can you guess? Well, I'm going to visit my parents in 15 more days =) I'm so thrilled and grateful at the same time. It's been almost four years since I got married and moved to the States. I've never been this far apart from my family ... and for such a long time. We are really close to each other, so it is really painful living away from home. I can hardly wait for the trip. We started planning sometime in May and my Mom has been counting days ever since =) I look forward to spending quality time with them. I am also super excited about all the Indonesian food that I'm gonna eat. I've been craving these food for a while: Kwetiaw Akiaw Mangga Besar (image from foodspotting.com ) Hokkian Noodle (image from makanmana ) Sate padang (image from AIS MIT website ) and much more! Seriously, Indonesia is a heaven for food lovers. Especially if you love spicy food. In addition to travelling back to Indonesia, me and ...

Epcot - Walt Disney World 2012

Day 2 - Orlando Trip Instead of visiting the other Universal, we chose to visit Epcot in Walt Disney World. WDW gate at International Dr Somehow, visiting Disney felt different. I'm not saying that Universal is not as good ... It's just that Disney has its own magical charm that is irreplaceable by any other theme parks (IMHO). As usual, we followed our proven strategy of coming early in the morning. Even before that, we also checked the park's forecasted crowd level at touringplans.com. We tried to adjust our schedule with the crowd level. Initially, we planned to spend one day and a half just for Epcot since a lot of our friends suggested us to do so. When we were lining up behind the turnstiles, we took a copy of park map and daily show schedule. Epcot's famous landmark from the turnstiles This time, we weren't late. We were among the first 10 cars who parked =P By 8.45AM, most of the cast members that manned turnstiles were already at t...
