Random

It was a long weekend for me. I did not do much except accompanied my mama and attended a friend's daughter 1 year old birthday bash. It was a freezing one! Anyway, the little princess was so cute today. :) Will post her photo if I could. 

Anyway, I brought my mama to a small town nearby on Saturday. It took us probably 30 min via the high way. It is very small but cosy town up in the hill. I told my mama i do not mind moving up here and it may seem far but with the high way, it is actually not to bad. My mama agreed that the environment is much nicer and quieter than where we are now. :) Maybe in the near future when I am tired of the hustle and bustle I might move up here.

Small shops in the area...

Then, yesterday while we were out, we saw a family of four cycling around the city center. The father cycled at the front guiding while the son and daughter in the middle and followed by their mother watching over the kids. How sweet. :) I think this is a good way of training their kids to be independent. My mama was saying that asian upbringing would be different. They would never let their kids do this. Asian kids are too protected by their parents. 

We were behind them for almost 10 mins, and not even one second you see the two kids wander off side track at all. They just followed their father on the cyclist track, not panic at all. Hmm.. very brave!

Awww, nice family day out!

I flew to Ceduna for a big project the other day. It is located somewhere near Perth, along the coast. Very nice big land but very few residents. Look at the photo below, they have big wide road but no car at all! Not even people or pet around. The photo was taken at around 10am. It is one of the main road! It is absolutely dead there. I am not sure why are they building something so big up there. Where is the market? God knows. 

Eerie...

Sunset at Ceduna

I am now very worried. (I know I think too much but I believe this is a valid worry!) There is only one flight in and one flight out of there in a day. I have to fly in early at 7am and fly out at 7.30pm at night. What am I going to do during the post contract session? Gulp!

Anyway, I took a photo of the sunset that evening. Very nice. (probably the only nice thing attracts tourist!)

Last but not least, I have found another love song to add on to my list for my sister. :) Jacky Cheung.

What a great long weekends you had there! Spending time with your mama definitely a very enjoyable one.

Hmm... Don't know where's that. But I agree with you. It's one's idea life to move away from the busy city. Maybe when I retire one day. :D

Yes, Asian kids are too protected. Just look at how the Caucasian teach their children to swim. They just leave them by the pool and swim. Asian? No, you won't see such thing happened.

Eh, how come got such place that I don't know? Ceduna? I must look it up the map. haha! The beach looks so nice during sunset!

By the way, great song that one. :)
