Sunday Short Run

I love KL

Within less than 30 minutes drive I can be here and have my Sunday morning run with my running buddies.

Didn't do my fav 10 Double Hills through Kenny Hills but it was a fun run, nevertheless.

(Very) Happy Sunday.





But, why do they have to rename Lake Garden to Taman Botani Perdana. I like the good old simple name - Lake Garden.

And, it seems that Lake Garden is under perpetual reconstruction. Annoying.

Old Charm

I had my second breakfast after my ride in Hulu Langat yesterday - at an old Chinese Kopitiam. They grind their own coffee and kaya. And the half boiled eggs are ayam kampung.

Nice.

The Baby Has Arrived

I need a name for this baby that I "inherit" from my elder brother.

I have been riding it since yesterday and the ride is super smooth and comfy.

Gotta send it in into Auto Bavaria first for thorough diagnosis, serviced and tuning. After which I will explore the land with this baby - may be the islands too.

Welcome to the family.

Now, I need a name for you.

Langat Solo Ride



Dr K and I promise to ride together but he chickened out last minute. Instead he went riding in Putrajaya. I love Langat so rode Langat by myslef - solo ride.


I think I was faster than my average speed - because I am a few kilo less due to the hike to EBC last year and I have been runnning regularly in the morning. I love it




I kind of like solo ride sometimes. I ride at my own pace, competing with myself. Besides I hate to promise my friends to ride with them and I ended up didn't turn up because of late nights and birthday parties and weddings.




Today was good. It drizzled when I got there but it stopped after I had my nasi lemak bungkus breakfast - with half boiled eggs (ayam kampung)

Sunday with my Brondong

It has been a while.

I took my Brondong out for breakfast today.






Fun - ALWAYS

Big Bad Wolf book sales


The biggest book sales n the world.

Despite still feeling a bit under the weather, I braved myself, and my nephews and harvest these titles from the Mines.

I thought books in Kathmandu were cheap. These are DIRT cheap.

I am very happy with my purchase.

NatGeo books and beautiful - and inspiring.

My Most Loyal Travel Companion

I love this pair and now its very comfy to hike with. 

I will get them washed, disinfected and oil it. And then its gonna be back to its original beauty. 

Haven't washed them since my last hike in the Himalayas.





Tibetan Rug


I purchased this at a Tibetan Refugee Centre in Kathmandu. 



I do collect rugs from different part of the world. This one adds to my favorite collection.


An American lady from Boston happened to stay at the same hotel in Kathmandu. She also acquired some pieces from the same place. She had a degree in fabrics or something like that. She told me Tibetan rugs are one of the finest on the world. She was embarrassed to pay so cheap for such high quality work of art.






It looks damn good in my office.







Be warned. Its wool. Wash it only with cold water.

Framing Job


I have to say, framing is a totally different skill all together.


I don't have any intention to get into this. 


I draw a line, I only shoot and print. I don't do framing.



However, I think it is interesting to design the framing to match the interior of a hotel, a home. Its part of ID and furnishing.
