My Scotland trip posts have finally come to an end... After our scrumptious dinner in Mary's place, we went back to our last night's stay in Jury Inn, Aberdeen. This has been our home for nearly a week and we love the place there. Main reason is that this hotel is is inside the shopping mall...

Up and up we walked...ascending the road to Stirling Castle... I was told that it was a fifteen minutes walk but the fifteen minutes stretched to thirty minutes! I needed some "pushing" from behind from my son especially the uphill walk... wow... how not to lose weight like that! On the way up... you...
The journey to Stirling from Kenmore took more than an hour to reach.. (if I am not mistaken.. maybe I slept in the car that I couldn't remember much) All I remember was looking for a place to stay and we went in the wrong way. Eventually our car got stuck in the one-way path and we had to reverse the...

Rome is often marketed as a great city break – which of course it is – but to really get the most from the city and its surrounding areas, a longer visit makes even more of the good value flights to Rome that can take you to this unique Italian centre in just a couple of hours. Even those who have never...

Started an early drive to KL this morning... going down south was definitely better, the vehicles were very much less than those driving up north. I think the long queue lasted for a few kilometers for those traveling up north this morning and noon... Well, it is school holidays again and many including me...

It was there in Edinburgh when we were "slashed" with two "fines." LOL... OK, sorry, I shouldn't use the word "slash"... it reminds me of Malaysian crime awareness in FB...Back to my story telling... we got our first summon fine from the parking attendant. My son parked right in front of the...
Stretching out my Edinburgh posts and pictures....We continued our sightseeing around the town by driving a bit and walking a lot... I remember the last time I came here, it was in the 1980s...
