7th International Dance Competition in Penang

Above is the waltz dancing during the 7th International Dance Competition in PISA on 25th November 2007. There were various categories of dancing such as cha cha cha, rhumba, samba, tango, quick step, waltz and paso doble. The costumes were opulent, dazzling with 'diamonds', silk and taffeta. The tickets cost RM15 each and I paid for 4 persons for myself and parents.



Here is the quick step dance which is much faster and livelier than waltz. If couples are too engrossed in dancing and don't look out, they can bump into another couple. There are more than 50 judges from various countries in this competition.

Bee Movie

Just last week, I watched bee movie with my friend in Queensbay Mall. It was a movie most suitable for kids. The chrome yellow and black stripes of bees certainly attract attention. From creator Jerry Seinfeld come "Bee Movie," a comedy that will change everything you thought you knew about bees. Take a close look at the world through the eyes of one bee in particular - Barry B. Benson (Jerry Seinfeld). A recent college graduate, Barry wants more out of life than the inevitable career that awaits him and every other workers in New Hive City - a job at Honex... making honey. Barry jumps at the chance to venture out of the hive, and soon encounters a world beyond his wildest dreams. When Barry inadvertently meet a quirky florist named Vanessa (Renee Zellweger), he breaks one of the cardinal rules of beedom - he talks to her. A friendship soon develops, and Barry gets a guided crash course in the ways of the human race.

Funny Elephant Massage

Just watch the video above of a funny elephant massage on the lying man's private parts. The elephants are revered animals in Thailand and have been trained to paint trees and flowers, carry tourists on their backs, do a bicycle ride, play soccer, play basketball, bowling and almost just anything that humans can do. Here is a recorded video in Nong Nooch Tropical Garden from my trip to Pattaya recently.

Going to Bangkok and Pattaya Tomorrow

From tomorrow onwards, I will be in Bangkok and Pattaya for 4 days, 3 nights and back on Sunday. I will be going by Air Asia with my youngest sister taking flight FD3542 departing Penang for Bangkok at 10:35am and back to Penang from Bangkok at 4:55pm on Sunday using flight FD3545.

On day 2, we will cruise Chao Phraya River, visit Wat Arun, Safari World and Marine Park.

On day 3, we will see Coral Island by speed boat, visit Nang Noorch Village and watch elephant show.

There will also be shopping to gem factory, leather factory, bee's product and more. In Bangkok, we will stay in Prince Palace Hotel for 1 nights and 2 nights in Baiyoke Pattaya Hotel. In the mean time, there will be no blogging until I come back.

Comfy Water Closet

The photo above looks very inviting with all the matching pink cloths. Wish I could furnish my new home with the matching materials from pink slippers to the bowl cover and toilet roll holder. It looks so inviting that you just wish you have a good novel and sit in this water closet and read for hours. In fact, my dad has put a fan in our water closet and reading is what some of us do mostly while sitting on the 'throne'.
