CONQUEST OF EUROPE ~ NAK PERGI LAGI :) (Part 1)

-
Alhamdulillah I have been to EUROPE before when I was studied in UK (7 years ago) - memang best sangat2!!! Masa pergi dulu, I follow Kelana Convoy "16 Days Conquest of Europe" (http://www.kelanaconvoy.co.uk/index.htm) which cost me approximately 452 pound sterling - Small Price Big Tour Coverage..Maklumlah student. Mana mampu nak travel mewah2 sangat. Jadi kene la pergi backpacking ikut student/ budget package yang Kelana Convoy offer. A great experience I must say. Tak semua orang boleh buat kan. But I did it with my close friends.

Highlights of my Europe Tour :)

 We depart from Park Lane, London and travel down to Dover, from here we take the ferry across to France. 


 When we reached Belgium, we stopped for Belgian chocolates!  




Continue into Holland, we set up camp near Amsterdam. The next day, we drove to the picturesque Dutch fishing and cheese village of Volendam. We tried variety of seafood and have our picture taken in a traditional Dutch costume. We posed for a memorable picture by the windmills. We spend the rest of the day  in Amsterdam city centre. We took a boat ride by the many canals.

We headed south east crossing into Germany. By late afternoon we arrived at Heidelberg, home to the oldest university in Germany. Sightseeing includes admiring the Heidelberg Castle, City Hall, Market Square architecture, Neckar river, Hollander Hof hotel and restaurant and the bridge gate. By evening we headed towards our campground.










By late afternoon of the following day, we reached Neuschwanstein castle. Built by King Ludwig, this castle is the fairest of all the fairy castles, situated on top of a hill surrounded by mountains and lakes. Mr Disney was inspired by this particular castle when he built his Disneyland fairy tale castle.

We then continue our journey into Austria towards our campsite. We spent the next morning going around the City of Innsbruck. Visited the Golden balcony, the lod City gate and shop for SWAROVSKI crystals and accessories. We also went to sky jump ramp built for the winter olympic which was once held here in Innsbruck.

TEATER BADAI SEMALAM, 20 NOV 2011 3PM

Badai semalam ialah teater muzikal yang diadaptasi dari hasil nukilan penulis tersohor, Khadijah Hashim. Dipentaskan di Panggung Sari, Istana Budaya pada 11 hingga 20 November 2011, jam 3.00 petang dan 8.30 malam dan dibarisi pelakon hebat seperti Erra Fazira, Aaron Aziz, Fizz Fairuz, Ziela Jalil dan Umie Aida. My review: Watak Mazni yang dipegang oleh Erra Fazira betul-betul sesuai dengan perwatakan Erra yang lemah lembut, tapi masih berhati cekal untuk mencapai cita-cita walaupun terdapat pelbagai halangan dan dugaan . Penghayatan Erra dalam menjiwai semangat Mazni benar-benar mengagumkan. Lakonan Erra cukup berkesan especially bile bermain dengan emosi dan juga part2 airmata.  Hats off to Erra! Umie Aida sangat cemerlang sebagai ibu Aaron. Watak tegasnya, mimik mukanya, lontaran dialognya, terbaik! Lakonan Ziela Jalil sebagai Habibah, ibu Mazni pula berjaya membuka minda bahawa anak orang gaji juga layak untuk berjaya dan mempunyai taraf yang sama seperti ...

EURO2012

I am pretty sure that most of us are aware about UEFA European Football Championship 2012 or commonly known as Euro 2012 which is held in this month hosted by Poland and Ukraine. There is only one more match left tomorrow morning before the final match. Of course,I will watch tomorrow's match between Germany and Italy. Who will go to final between this two??? will it be Germany since the team is very consistent throughtout the tournament? Or Will it be Italy, based on historical record whereby Germany always lost to Italy? Will see. I'm not supporting either Germany or Italy though. My favourite team is Spain!!!!!!! And yes, they are marching to the Final match. I' m so happy they did it once again. I really hope that they will win this tournament so that they will be the first team to have won 3 trophys in a row: euro2008, world cup 2010 and euro 2012. Pleaassseeeeeee :) go casillas, go torres, go alonso, go silva. So sad that David villa is not in the team due to ...
