The original plan was to go back to Taiwan in June this year. Decided to go to Hokkaido since we have been talking about it for quite awhile even though the Taiwan's trip programme almost completed.
The sudden earthquake and massive nuke leak changed the whole planning. Was quite disappointed but definitely not safe to go ahead. Where's next? Beijin. Dropped the plan again due to the hot weather and not many interesting spots for girl girl.
Finally settled to visit Melbourne for the cooling weather since it is winter in June and a good mix of activity for the family. Pretty busy and tiring to research 4 places over a few months. But the effort was not totally wasted as we can use it whenever we decided to visit the places again.
I enjoy planning unique and enriching holiday program, ie trying different activities so as to have different experiences from the moment we fly off until we touch down home. For the recent Melbourne trip, we tried traveling on SQ A380, staying in a service apartment with a kitchen and day trip to a few nearby places.
Half way into the trip, I also started to source for more information that I may need it as I will be visiting Melbourne again :-)

It's feel good to blog again
My last blog posting was about 8 months ago. Ha...
It's feel good to blog again. :-)
There are, indeed, many things to write and share, 8 months of activities and happenings.One of the immediate differences is that I can now blog easily using an iPad. Dun have to turn on a netbook or notebook or pc to do so. Much convenient especially it comes with a good screen size. iPhone is just too small for it.
I am thinking of summarizing the past 8 months into a few paragraphs here. Emm... not quite possible. I will just share more about it as I blog.
To start off, I began the year 2011 with a sudden change of my job portfolio. Moving from planning and organizing community projects to working on social media stuff, mainly on the Facebook platform. The assignment was to achieve 200,000 fans after 6 months. The base number then was coming to a thousand. Do you think that it is possible? Dun say no without giving it a try and trying it hard with many attempts. I am still trying at the moment. Ha...ha...ha...
There are two things that I like about the sudden change: able to do something new and a lot of learning about social media - new skills set and knowledge :-)
