Halo everyone… sorry for lacking of blogging. I had been busy with my wedding for past one month and finally everything had finished. It had been a very tiring moment but it has been also a very un-forgetful moment as well. In this few weeks while I am at hometown I spent most of my times with World Cup 2010 and also with my new thoughts of life. I will share it out in the very near post. For now enjoy some of the photos on my hometown Sabah.

This shot is taken to test the makeup of Joyce when shooting with flash. I do not prefer on this makeup as it make Joyce too mature inside photo while I always prefer Joyce to be more energetic and younger feel.

Zen Garden @ Kundasang

Just after the wedding dinner at Sandakan - the second day we took a bus which drive by my relative to Kundasang. This time we are staying at Zen Garden. This resort hotel provide 3 meals while you stay at their chalet [breakfast, lunch and dinner - steamboat]. Eventually this resort had let me down a bit because the room itself do not provide Live World Cup but luckily I get to know a young handsome boss of Zen Garden. I get his permission to order beer and watch the matches at his Restaurant which is actually close at 10pm. I am very appreciate the hospitality of him. Enjoy the photos below of this resort.

Last visit on 2009 due to heavy raining I and my buddy not able to walk most of the mountain trail so this time I target to walk again. This time I bring along more than 10 people which are above ages including Joyce’s parents as well. It is not easy leading as I do not dare to have any mistake. The whole walking session do not make me feel good as we totally have 16 peoples which make the environment a bit noisy and some more along the way not much people enjoying the world of rain forest. Have a look of the chalets photo and also the mountain trials photo.
