At Los Angeles we visited Disney Land & Universal Studios
At San Diego we have visited the famous Seaworld.
Then at Reno Nevada Lake Tahoe
On Colorado we have visited Grand Canyon & Hoover Dam
Then finally Las Vegas : Las Vegas Strip
These are our whereabouts in US. Next year hopefully by autumn we will be visiting New York
as side trip on our journey to Calgary Canada.
Genting Highlands and Kuala Lumpur
Travelling east coast of Malaysia from Singapore is about 6 hours by coach. Approximately 4 hours to reached Kuala Lumpur and another 2 hrs to reached Genting Highlands.
Genting Highlands is like the "Baguio City" of Malaysia. The weather is perfectly cool and misty.
What to do there ? There are a lot of casinos, theme parks and nature trail adventures.
Kuala Lumpur on the way going back to Singapore so we took the chance to visit famous Petronas Twin Tower. Petronas Tower was once the tallest building in the world not until Taipei 101 was built at around 2004. However it is still the tallest twin tower in the world.
Constructed over a century ago, the Chan See Shu Yuen Temple is a fine example of Oriental architecture, with open courtyards, symmetrical pavilions and embellished roofs. The temple is easily identified by its intricately-carved roof, depicting monumental events in Chinese mythology, while its inner shrine is decorated with ornate sculptures of mythical creatures and olden-day warriors.

Incredible India
Bangalore India -My first Travel
Repost from blog account :
Inside India - truly rare and exotic . Living there for 4 months, I had seen significant uniqueness and I can say that they have preserved their cultures and religions through time even they were colonized by British .My place in India is Bangalore - the capital of Indian state of Kar
nataka . Bangalore is the third most populous city and the fifth largest metropolitan area . As an engineer I would say Bangalore is the silicon valley of India where all semiconductor companies are there including AMD , Philips , Cypress to name some .It is where Bill Gates used to visit every month for different possible reasons like b
usinesses and of course India has great programmers.
I stayed in apartment located in Benson town with my officemate near cinema house called Naga theather.We used to ride an 'auto' going to office. We preferred 'auto' since it cost us three times cheaper than taking a taxi of Mr. Morthy. I had several road
experiences in Bangalore like books are being pirated in MG( Mahatma Gandhi) Road India .
In the Philippines we have pirated DVDs but in India I got several pirated books completing my collections of Harry Potter, Sidney Sheldon collections , Dan Brown books and Archies .There
have unusual piece and my personal favorites like Body Language by Allan Pease, different culinary books and the famous Chicken Soup for the Soul. I almost forgot the famous book from India -Kamasutra. Another 'road experience' was driving without using side mirrors , vehicles side mirrors are all folded . Imagine that how they turn left and right. In India 'cows' are sacred , they are priority over a vehicle crossing streets.
Religion plays an important role in the daily life of Indians, Hinduism , in particular is extremely complex and continously evolving. Hindu is the largest major religion in India. 
Approximately 80% of the population practices various forms of Hinduism but there are also Catholics in India . We meet several Filipinos and Filipino nuns at St. Patrick Church.
I had rare meaning raw and unique experiences in terms of food , music ,holiday season's and movies. When we talked about food , I gained 20lbs in India because of carb , Basmati rice which really taste good and of course sea foods that I used to cooked. My taste began to savored several spices like oregano which is good with pizza and curry and other tomato based dishes. My favorite Indian foods are only handful
which include lamb burger, lamb steak and gobi machurian made of cauliflower but taste like meat. Most of Indians are vegetarian so there are many veggie foods that taste like meat. One Indian dish I can cook that is gobi manchurian.
Speaking of holidays we spent Christmas 2005 and New Year 2006 in India , it was so sad and I really missed my family . Two things because they don't Christmas and second no new year blast - it was so ordinary day.
What more I got?I remember we've been to Banerghatta mini safari where I got to see huge sizes of animals. I saw hippopotamus as huge as elephant , siberian tiger and bengal tigers.Another thrilling experience was elephant ride.
As our officemates in India would say Bangalore is 'westernize city' of India where malls are also everywhere like in any other city .
Clothes like Nike , Benetton and Adidas were extremely cheap in Bangalore because other than semicon company they also have several clothing factories.
To wrap it all I can say India is definitely unique and interesting and I'm looking forward to see it again and next time I'll check Taj Mahal .
