Helloww little ones...

Hi all,

its been a long time since I've blogged anything. Blame it on the very busy traveling schedule - the numerous To-DO list when one's getting a place of her own. And with the crazy work schedule. Yes, that sums it all - I've been busy with all these.

Hmm... much to update since I last logged in.

First, I visited n Vietnam for business. I wish I was on a holiday. That place is loooovely. (",) I particularly love Hanoi. There are some places that you simply fall in love the minute you set foot on land. It was anticipation building -- First, I was at Saigon -- City of Vietnam. Where all the businesses and corporate rules. It was lovely in a "city" way, I enjoyed seeing scooters with so many commuters zipping by, without road dividers, white lines, double yellow lines, single white line. Its amazing to see how your driver go against drivers without the rest of the motorists honking like crazy (yes, like those deranged Singapore drivers we use to get. honking angrily at anyone who dares to stop even for a spilt second when the green light comes on. In Singapore, there seems to be be an expectation that one needs to zoom off the next nano sec the lights turn) So, me, from honking traffic conditioned sees extreme graciousness in the Vietnamese.

Kudos! to these people! It warms my heart to know that decent motorists DO exist.

My next stop within that same week was to Hanoi. Charming little city. I fell head over heels in love with that city. Its never before that such a place has such an effect on me. I simply love all those narrow, colourful houses that lined the free way from the airport to Metropo. Its a good 45mins ride, but I enjoyed it every bit of the way - seeing the Mekong river on my right, and the lovely french style houses on my left. I am so bless!

I was puting up at Metropol - a le Raffles hotel - lovely. lovely. lovely. That place is simply lovely. I enjoy the wonderful room - its a shame that we were only there for 2 nights.

Dinner for 2 nights were a balony style fusion food. The food was fantastic, the ambience, perfect. How I wish Momoo was there with me. He would love this place - the good food and lovely people. . .

And yes, not to mention the lovely white choc strawberry cake after a long day's work. There's a small little cafe that serves up lovely cakes and pastries. You'll also be amaze at the roadside carts with bagettes with lettuce and yummy sandwich fillings. Hmm... but not that enticing enough for me to decide to take a bite. At least, not on that trip. I've heard enough "horror" stories on diahrroe plague days and having to conduct meetings and conferences while trying to stop having your hair and the back of your neck stand and killing all of your senses to try to stand up straight. Not my idea of comfort.

So.. no roadside meatloaves ... for now...
