Travel

The Big Apple!

I was watching CSI NY the other day, when I was reminded of a shirt that my other half bought during his work trip to Boston last year. Actually the “I Love NY” tee was bought for a friend but since it didn’t fit him well, it has been kept in the closet till now.

Anyway, if next time he’s going to the US and I have the opportunity to accompany him, I already made plans on things to do in New York City. I will for sure insist on taking the hop-on, hop-off bus tour with top-deck-only seating so that I will get the best possible views of New York City’s attractions, neighborhoods and places of interest.

Getting on such ride will enable me to snap pictures (for those who know me, I hate walking and tiring myself out while traveling..heh!) I will also go on their night tour from as low as $44 (with online booking). As stated in their website, I will get to enjoy the nighttime views and ambiance of Times Square, Chinatown, Empire State Building , Greenwich Village, SoHo, Little Italy, Manhattan Bridge, Brooklyn Bridge and Lower East Side.

Now, I wonder while I am in New York will I be able to see Mac Taylor and his CSI team in action?..haha!

Gardening

DIY Water Fountain

Recently I have moved to my own place after many years of renting. And lately I have this crazy (though do-able) idea to make my own water fountain to turn the regular front yard into a serene gateway. Call it the new home owner pride..heh!

So I searched the Internet to gather what’s needed for a simple, make it over the weekend fountain and found this - Pyramidal Pots Water Fountain on Martha Stewart website.

I hope I could find the time this week to get all the materials needed. Can’t guarantee you the result, though..heh!
