Excuse me, Hong Kong, South Korea is here.

I had a great time in South Korea that composing a proper blog entry is turning out to be really difficult. Words are just flying by, but they won't behave, won't group themselves into sentences. So....

South Korea. Fun. Family. Love. Food. Trick Eye. Hello Kitty. N Tower. Temple. Lotte World. Toys. Toy Street. LEGO. Sylvanians. Trains. Busses. Airplanes. Food. Food. Food. Pig Fly.

LEGOLand Malaysia!!

From a trip a few months back. 

Enjoyed the Miniland, the Kingdoms - Dragon Roller Coaster ride, the burgers and fries, The Big Shop. The kids loved everything! Some parts of the place were still under construction. Still, a pretty nice place to visit. We will be back!

Ciao!

Meet Panda, my Dahon Ciao D5.

Leaves of Change

After two decades of inactivity, I rode a bicycle today, my bicycle. I was told to do some exercising when I get better, and I felt a little better today. We only got the bike yesterday, took the whole of the afternoon before we finally got to bring it home (I will save this for another post).

Roughly an hour of biking, mostly uphills and several rounds around the park and I was panting like  a dog in heat. My knees are now aching and my muscles feel like they have been pounded. Let us do this again tomorrow.

Sun Burned and Wiggling

Little P. and her classmates.

I swear the nuns do not screen the music these kids dance to.

Juice Up

Here we go. CNN has an article about the Raspberry Pi. I hope the local media pick it up so that the RasPi gets exposure here in the Philippines. It would be great if computer classes get 1 or 2 of these boards to tinker with.

2013

Like always, for various reasons, this blog has been thoroughly neglected. Hopefully, I will be in better health come the new year, and also less lazy.

Aside from the blog, the diecast collection also suffers from neglect. Mattel (Matchbox and Hotwheels) releasing crappy castings contributes to this. Johnny Lightning still keeps me interested, with all the VW T2s they churn out.

The Kool Kombi is a new HW casting for 2013, and should be on every want list. It is out in other countries now but I have yet to see it locally. (I might not see it on the pegs 'cause of hoarders and speculators.)
