New Member

My wife and I are anxiously waiting for the arrival of our new family member, expected to be in 7 Sept. In anticiption for a breech birth, we might be welcoming our new baby anytime earlier than that.
I won't say that we are well prepared, but we have done all the necessary for her arrival. I would say that we are not giving the best but we are prepared to give her the best that we can.
We have been interacting with her quite frequently for the past few weeks as she "enjoys" the last month in her mum's womb.
Undoubtfully, this is a very exciting moment in our life. We are looking forward for a safe delivery of the baby, and a great parenting experience for me and my wife

临别都柏林

人说:临别才恨相见少。 这用来形容此刻的心情还倒蛮贴切的。 明天就要离开这城市了,突然觉得还没看够她的容颜。

岁月如梭,在这也呆了快四个星期了。初次踏上这片土地的情景好像还历历在目。本该很庆幸能来此一游,奈何寂寞还是掩盖了喜悦。说实在的,四个星期形只影单的日子真还不易过。

在这里,认识的人不多,更甭说肯带你到处走的人了。所以一直以来工余的事间就靠自己打发了。而天似乎不太作美, 几乎每天都下雨。每每去到一个地方,才要欣赏景物,天竟下起雨来了。 真有点无奈啊!
无论如何,还是打从心里喜欢上这城市。她没有贵族般的妖艳,朴实中又不流于俗气。 这里的人,没有我刻板印象中欧州人的傲慢。如果不是寂寞,我还是会很向往这个可爱城市。

1 more week to go

Yes! I have been in Dublin for three weeks by now. 1 more week to go!
I will be taking flight back to KL on 3rd Aug. What a thing to looking forward. :)

Life at Dublin has been fine for the initial few days. After that was bored, bored and bored.
The thing that I hate the most is the hotel food. I can't believe that there is no restaurant around the area that I stay. Not at all.. So, without any other choice, I have to try to love the food served by the hotel..
Can you imagine rotating with the 8 fixed menu for 4 weeks? Wanna give a try?

Dublin

I've travelled to Dublin on 7 July 2007 for business purpose.

Total travel time : 18 hours 30 minutes.
Flight detail: KL -> Amsterdam -> Dublin.
The most stupid thing was to wait at Amterdam Shiphol airport for 4 hours.
