I get these views a few steps away from my hotel room - not every day, but still......

This was what I posted on FB

These were what I got.

Comments that get me going and going and going with my camera.

I thank you all for the words of encouragement.

Jazz @ MPO

A good friend, JJ bought me tickets for the above performance.

The show was OK-lah. I almost fell asleep.

She can play the piano very well and the accompanying musicians were good.

However, when she started talking, she was very much into herself and her family and friends. I felt left out. So did my friends who went.

The coffee session at Chinoz after was a lot better.

Apparently an old flame was sitting at the next table. Didn't realize it until I was informed later.

Hmmmmm.... should still look good, as always.

My Comfort Food

When I don't feel well in Kuantan and don't feel like going out, I would order this from the room service.

Its chicken soup (chinese style) with ginseng.

I also normally ask for cili padi with kicap and some buns and butter.

Weird right? But it tastes so good!

And a mug of hot milo before bed.

Went to Torino Auto again today - did plan but I happened to be in the neighborhood.

David briefed me the progress.

Still waiting for the engine to be rebuilt

New sets of pistons, timing chain

and new sets of valve

New lights, probably the very last set you can get from Jalan Ipoh.

The progress is very slow, but I am still happy. It takes time to restore this and David has been doing a good job not only restoring the engine, but also sourcing for parts.

Can't wait!

Can't wait!

Sepetang di Tanjung Lumpur

This is where my favorite Nasi Lemak Ikan Tongkol and Nasi Dagang in Kuantan.

It is a very small shop but the food is not fancy but authentic and cheap.

I even had business discussions there. Can be better than Hyatt Regency Club.

This is the view of the river... I took a short walk after a meal and a discussion with Mr Lee.

Woo hoo!

Bella Italiana - 19

I have been very busy lately.

Have not been checking the progress of the car for almost a month.

Quite a pleasant surprise when I went to visit it over the weekend.

I am quite pleased.

I have called David to arrange the tow truck to ship the car back to Torino Auto (Fiat Malaysia) to fix the engine and bring it back for final paintjob.

The only thing that worries me now is the detailing.

I am happy with the progress, nevertheless…

At a medical checkup last week.

A very pleasant 79-year old doctor attended me.

She is a Punjabi lady.

She went through all the questions listed in the insurance form with me including family health history.

And the we reached the section where she has to declare her neutral position in checking my health.

She read the questions out loud and answered them out loud too.

Question 1

Do I know you?

No, I don’t.

Have we met before?

No, this is the first time

Are we related?

She paused…..

And then she said…..

YES

I went “huh?”

She went – Yes, we are both Malaysians.

and

At 79, she doesn’t glasses to drive nor to read and write.

Bajau Kids of Mabul

I managed to capture some of the kids playing around in their little kampung by the beach.

This I would like to share with my friends.

I am still trying to refine my skills to present slide show with music.

Please bear with me.

Future slides will be better ;-)
