Now waiting for the music to be uploaded so that I can illegally download. :P<BR/><BR/>Walter - Your Melbourne trip photos looks so much more colourful and interesting. I just love the very well-taken horse-carriage photo. Would have used it illegally too.<BR/><BR/>Evan - Your business seemed to have grown by leaps and bounds. It is certainly testament to your good baking skills.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339178864363140977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-67499488093214054702007-09-13T23:53:00.000+08:002007-09-13T23:53:00.000+08:00hi uncle vic, was suprised to see u linking me up ...hi uncle vic, was suprised to see u linking me up again :p<BR/><BR/>wow $1630 for cruise, quite ex hor? i been on cruise twice actually, once on leo, the other on virgo. but the food was quite disappointed on the latter on. but overall quite enjoyable! i love the galaxy of stars, library & jacuzzi the most :p hope u enjoyed yrself too =) take care.bossacafezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02206146352124945774noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-73136997736611654032007-09-13T08:15:00.000+08:002007-09-13T08:15:00.000+08:00Nice one there Victor.

Looks like a classic holiday post in the making. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for bringing up the story about flipping the fish over to get to the meat on the other side. Its an interesting tale which I remembered hearing about many many years/decades ago when I was a kid. I just wonder though if its more deadly to choke on a fish bone than risk capsize? ;)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15583607062793779274noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-76960695646043593412007-09-12T11:58:00.000+08:002007-09-12T11:58:00.000+08:00At first when i looked at the wu suo nan yang scre...At first when i looked at the wu suo nan yang screenshot, i thought it looked like a box with maggots/worms inside. omg.<BR/><BR/>then i saw the pic with mickey mouse and donald duck.

And before the local TV authority was called SBC, it was called RTS (Radio Television Singapore). That was probably before your time.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339178864363140977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-73856345225746780972007-09-11T17:34:00.000+08:002007-09-11T17:34:00.000+08:00Wah lau, when I first saw that capture, I immediat...Wah lau, when I first saw that capture, I immediately thought of Wu Shuo Nan Yang, sekali it turned out to be it! :) but can't remember the title in English.. Is it "The Awakening"? Childhood memories, haha... those days it was still called SBC.. :) <BR/><BR/>Glad your cruise seemed enjoyable, but better faster tell us more about the superstitions!!Shilpahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01775487084298169773noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-29767313374202042402007-09-11T14:47:00.000+08:002007-09-11T14:47:00.000+08:00Frannxis & Tigerfish - Yes, a cruise is very relax...Frannxis & Tigerfish - Yes, a cruise is very relaxing (not to mention fattening, haha). In fact, we find package tours to the usual destinations a real hassle - having to wake up early everyday, being herded like sheep, packing and unpacking, etc so we opted for a cruise this time.<BR/><BR/>Chun See - I know you hate crowds. However, the Virgo is really quite big - I think there are about 10 restaurants but only 3 of them are inclusive, meaning that the fare you paid included meals at these 3 restaurants. You really should bring your family on board. Trust me, it is quite enjoyable.Victorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10339178864363140977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13303109.post-23661588192673556262007-09-11T06:16:00.000+08:002007-09-11T06:16:00.000+08:00A cruise can be relaxing sometimes.
