Labuk Bay

After my trip to Dubai last year, I went back to my hometown. That was in late November. This time, number two son was with me. Besides staying in his grandma's house, we went to Labuk Bay Proboscis Monkey Sanctuary. It was my first time to that place although the sanctuary has existed for ages. This place is situated right at the edge of an oil palm estate. Very similar to Sepilok, except that you won't find any orang utan. There will be a lot of proboscis monkeys. Feeding time is where you can see all the monkeys coming to the open area to get free food. And of course how could resist to take a photo with the monkeys.

Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route

Just came back from Japan last week. Went to Tokyo for conference and added side trip to Tateyama Alpine Route and Kanazawa. I must say that Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route was great. You can do the trip either from Nagano side or Toyama side. For us, we did it from the Nagano side. Took the Shinkansen to Nagano early morning. Then boarded the express bus to Ogizawa. From there, we boarded the tunnel electric bus to get to Kurobe Dam. From the dam, it was all the way up to the peak (almost). Murodo is the highlight of the route. This is the place where you get to see snow covered peak and lake. In spring, there's snow wall nearby Murodo station. From Murodo, we descended to Bijodaira and Tateyama Station to catch the local train back to Toyama. The fare for the entire route is not cheap, but it's worth it. A hike from Bijodaira to Murodo should be interesting, which can be considered in future. View from the tunnel electric bus, onward to Kurobe Dam Arrived at Kurobe Dam View of t...

MyVi

Had got my new MyVi last Friday. Initial consumption was a litre for a 10-km drive. Well, it seems quite costly but this is still early to judge as the engine needs up to 5,000km drive to get optimize (that's what people tell me). Enjoy driving it.
