Legoland and Universal Studio Singapore

It's year end school holiday again. Since we didn't have any overseas trip for 2018, we decided to venture to the south - Johor. Obviously the place of interest was Legoland since the kids were coming along. We also went to Universal Studio Singapore (USS) for a day trip, arranged by the resort we stayed. The kids like Legoland than USS because there's hands-on activities there (building Lego blocks). They also enjoyed the Ninjago ride. As for USS, we like USJ more. However, USS didn't disappoint as well. We like the Transformer ride and Jurassic adventure ride. Unfortunately, there's no Harry Potter theme there. The disappointment of the trip was the long queue at Woodlands checkpoint. I think the Singaporean government should do something about it. The queue was smooth at Malaysia checkpoint though.

Trip 01-06.....rough itinerary

Category: Travel OK, time is catching up. I have about 3 weeks left before the trip. Have drafted out initial itinerary: 6 May - Fly to BKK and transit to Udon Thani. From Udon Thani, go to Nong Khai and cross over Laos border. Immigration office opens until 10pm. Hope to reach Vientiane before midnite. 7 May - Excursion around Vientiane. 8 May - Travel to Vang Vieng. Not really want to spend 11 hours on the bus to get to Luang Prabang. Have a pit stop will be nicer. 9 May - Continue to Luang Prabang. 10 May - Excursion around Luang Prabang. 11 May - Slow boat to Pak Beng. Mandatory pit stop due to slowliness of the boat. 12 May - Slow boat to Huoy Xai. I guess have to over night here (immigration office might be closed at time of arrival). 13 May - Cross over to Thailand. Might not stay in Chiang Rai. Proceed to Chiang Mai. 14 May -Back to Malaysia.

Dangers Men Face #1 - A Dangerous Journey

As we live our life in this fallen world, we are exposed to all sort of "dangers". Danger brings different meaning and experience to each individual. But the danger which we fear the most are the ones we do not see until it is too late. No doubt satan brings good disguise until the victim slowly entrapped into sweet temptation. Each one of us have dreams. Our dreams somehow change along the course of life. Most of the members felt that perspective and dream change as we follow Christ. Dangers come in whether we know it or not. If we are not aware, dangers will destroy our dreams. The members believe the prominent danger that Christians are facing is danger of dream. Christians tend dare not to have big dream (big dream for spiritual work). This could be due to biblical values which have molded the perspective of each Christians. Martin Luther did have a big dream. There are five dangers to be explored: danger of loss, danger of sin, danger of freezing, danger of witdrawal and...

Trip 01-06.....the preparation

Category: Travel Time flies so fast. I only have one month left before go to Laos. Had done some reading on Laos lately. Had bought the new edition of Lonely Planet: South East Asia on a Shoestring. Planning to utilise the guide in other future trip as well (probably Bali and The Philippines). Basically we (Dr Mic and I) haven't finalised the itinerary. Hopefully will be able to come out the rough plan (we did have a rough plan but haven't finalised it though).

Life, Travel, GRACE
