Balik Kampung and back again...

Where: From Melbourne to Kuala Lumpur
When: December 2007

Its that time of the year, where I pack my bags and head home! 3 weeks of fun and food with family and friends back home....oh yeah! Back to Boleh Land and Kay-El (capital of Msia!). Here are some of the stuff I captured on the way home...
Waiting area after check in at Melbourne Airport (what else to do but eat, wait and watch planes docking?)
The flight I took had to transit at Changi, Singapore. With 8 hours to spare, I toured the new Terminal 2,3 and also surrounding city late Friday night courtesy of Uncle Patrick and Aunty Susan ;).

At the back seat of Uncle's car, enjoying the bright Xmas decorations along Orchard Road. Wow! its so much better than Melbourne!

Deserted Terminal 2 in the wee hours.

Connecting train to all the stations. Its FOC by the way :)

The new T3 terminal. its soooooo vast inside, bright and very spacious!

Just before boarding the connecting flight to KL, spotted the worlds largest Panasonic FullHD Plasma 101" on display!

30,000 feet up and on the way back to KL from Singapore. Great view of the sunrise over the equator.

A great view deserves another take!

Strolling down Bukit Bintang road on the way to Pavillion, latest happening shopping center in KL.

A walk about in The Gardens Mid Valley. Another new upmarket shopping addition!

Xmas Decor at The Gardens, beats Melbourne's bland shopping center decors anytime..hehe

Leaving for Singapore from KLIA on board the 777. I'm gonna miss the Teh Tariks! It rained heavily as I bid farewell to boleh land..sigh

Arrival at Melbourne Airport early Saturday morning and awaiting pick up. Hmm, sun is bright, temp at a warm 38degrees. Woaah...Malaysia was cooler! Oh well, its back to life downunder and looking forward to get driving around in my new ride. Now where's my car...is that it in the distance there ???
