Klias Wetland is a mangrove forest reserve in Sabah, famous for being the habitat of the endangered proboscis monkey (known for its big, long nose) that is endemic to the Borneo Island in South East Asia.
Klias Wetland was the first destination during our Kinabalu trip in March 2009; it was my second visit to the place (first in 2006). Sharing some photos below…
Random photos of Halong Bay, Vietnam; taken during my trip in July 2008…
First day in Hanoi, intended to visit Hoan Kiem Lake after checking in at my hotel… the journey was supposed to take 15 minutes of walking, but somehow took me more than an hour to reach there due to some poor map reading lol.
The time was not completely wasted though; passed by some of these landmarks in Hoan Kiem District that I probably won’t discover if I hadn’t lost my direction…
Disney’s Hollywood Hotel is one of two hotels at Hong Kong Disneyland Resort (another is Disneyland Hotel which presumably is a bit classier). We checked in to the Hollywood Hotel in the evening. The room was much larger than our previous hotel, and it was decorated with Mickey figures here and there…
We stayed at BP International House （香港龍堡國際賓館） for the first two nights in Hong Kong before transferring to Disney’s Hollywood Hotel later on.
BP is the acronym for Baden Powell, the founder of Scout Movement. The 25-storey building is actually the Hong Kong Scout Centre; the headquarters only occupied a few floors though, the rest are hotel rooms and facilities.
Great location, reasonable price, nice staff. Room was small, but it’s probably a norm in Hong Kong where land and space are in premium. And if you are lucky you might get a decent room view of Tsim Sha Tsui and a bit of Victoria Harbour.
