God sent?


This is a better movie than The Da Vinci Code. It's simple to follow (not as info-condensed as previous installment). But if you compared it with the original novel, you will notice it missed out a lots of details. Bernini's sculpture was not explained in details in the movie, which was not necessary though. But again you will find it interesting if you read the book. You will appreciate the details.

Probably someone will realize that even in the church, evil does exist. After all, humans are not perfect, sinners. And I do believe that every event happens with a cause, just like why Prof Langdon was summoned in the movie, or shall I say it is God's will.


Never mind if the movie does not follow strictly to its novel. After all, it is a good novel adaptation.

Day 2: A visit to some of The Tokyo Toilet project

On the second day of my trip, I decided to visit some of the public toilets under The Tokyo Toilet project. The idea was inspired by the film  Perfect Days . Since the public toilets under this project are scattered around western side of Tokyo, I visited a few in Shibuya area, which are quite close to each other. One notable location is Yoyogi Park.  One of the highlights of these designer toilets is the transparent toilet. Its transparent glass walls will turn opaque when the door is locked. This feature is based on the electrochromic effect. However, this feature is unavailable during late autumn and winter, which coincided my visit. The key takeaway from this visit: an eye opening experience about toilet culture and social inclusivity.

Trip 01-06: Day 8-9 (The end)

Day 8-9 (13-14 May) We proceed to Thailand in the morning. The immigration process was the easiest. We crossed the river by boat and reached Chiang Khong (the border town of Thailand). Then a mini van to Chiang Mai. Arrived in Chiang Mai about 4pm. Looked for a cheap room and then had an excursion around the town. The next day we will depart and back to M'sia. It has been a pleasant trip for the whole week. Laos is a beautiful and peaceful country with abundant of unspoiled forest and mountains. Now we have to get back to our real life. End of the trip.
