Hi guys,
How times flies! Been back in Singapore to this reality for almost a month or so. Simon & I decided to treat ourselves to Western USA for a solid honeymoon getaway for 2 weeks. Furthest trip we ever had in our lives so far. Why western USA? Cos he wanted to see Grand Canyon. I wanted to see Disneyland and Universal Studio, I’m such a child at heart. ehem!
We had a group tour of 31 people, thank goodness they are very kind and friendly people so we got along pretty well. We traveled to Los Angelas, San Francisco and Las Vegas.
What I really like about Los Angelas:
1) Universal Studio!!!
I loved the Studio Tour, superb. We sat in the tramp and traveled to different attraction spots to see how Hollywood made their movie, visited the different sound stages and production set. Being a newbie in the acting world, I got really excited to see how the big screen play do their shows. How they stimulated flood scenes, earthquake, airplane crash, car crash and etc. My jaws dropped onto the floor most of the time. haha. “Mountain tortise” mah! And the 3D king kong was fantastic, it felt real.
Another highlight was the irritating Haunted Mansion which I really got scared the shit outta me. Real life monsters waiting and hiding at one corner..some dark corner trying to scare you. I almost freaked out. By the time I came out of the mansion, my hair was in a mess.
As for Disneyland which boasted to be the happiest place on earth, it was really kids-friendly ride which we were kinda bored and sleepy due to jet lag. Then we took a ride called Splash Mountain in attempt to wake ourselves up cos we had to sit inside this “container” where both of us were the first 2. It was something like the Haw Par Villa ride we had long time ago, but this time much much higher..like 50 feet..We were splashed with so much water, drenched! Really woke us up man!
Another special highlight near Los Angelas, was my favorite Yosemite National Park. I love this man natural waterfalls and awesome scenery!
What I like about San Francisco:
The highlight over here was the Golden Gate Bridge. Check this out!
But I love the Cheesecake Factory more..yummy!!! Eat and be MERRY! Who cares about weight loss?! LOL!
What I like about Las Vegas:
The ultimate highlight was the Grand Canyon!!! It was magnificent. Truly one of the seven wonders man. We took the helicopter ride and boat ride for our Grand Canyon tour. OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGggggggg! Beyond words…
Of cos we still have our sinful casinos..which we managed to win a couple of hundreds. Lucky us!
The most enjoyable activity which I didn’t manage to take any pictures was actually the Factory Outlets shopping. I was too busy shopping so I didn’t manage to take any pictures! Warning, you will lose your senses when you saw tons of things calling out to you to buy, so cheapppppp! For eg, Levis jeans, CK jeans cost less than USD $30-50. Coach bags..which I bought too many and I had to sell some away. haha. Really shop till you drop. Like what my hubby said, it’s honeymoon, it’s meant to spend one so we spend! haha.
All I can say is…USA rocks!!!
Then after that we transited over at Taipei and our group ran over to Taoyuan market for some freaking Chinese food cos we grew so sick of daily breakfast where you ate gang dang aka potatoes most of the time. Mee sua, pudding bubble tea and etc just felt so good. OMG! Simple and so gooooooddddd. End this honeymoon with a beautiful note at Taiwan!
Very blessed that I had all the major events in my life happened smoothly and happily. Really counting my blessings with Simon. Glad that my family and friends gave their blessings to us too.
May we attract more good things and good people into our lives. HUAT AH!!!
Cheers,
Zeoane
Make someone happier today!
