A Postcard from Hong Kong

Mehdi and I went to Hong Kong together this month, just after my birthday.

It's an amazing city, so busy and fast pace! We did some great shopping and site seeing.

Here is a little postcard to sum up our trip...

More Birthday Pics

Thanks everyone for your comments and birthday love!

Here are a few more pics of my magical day...

After Dinner Drinks at the Burj

After dinner, Mehdi suggested a walk on the beach.

We ended up at the Burj Al Arab where he had made a reservation for drinks (an impossible feat considering it was Friday night).

It was really amazing, I have never seen anything like it. The photo's above are taken in the hotel lobby.

Happy Birthday To Me!

It was my Birthday on the 4th and Mehdi and I were off together.

We had a sleep-in and spent the morning together, Florent came over at lunch time to say 'Happy Birthday' and have some cake for afternoon tea.

In the evening, Mehdi surprised me and took me out to a restaraunt that I had never been to before, called Aquarium. It was really beautiful and very romantic.

This is a photo of me in the restaraunt with my birthday cake. The photo above is the massive aquarium in the middle of the restaraunt.

Wild Wadi Again!

Here we are again at Wild Wadi last month. So much fun as always!

Red Bull Air Race Abu Dhabi

Earlier last month, Mehdi, Florent and I went to the Red Bull Air Race in Abu Dhabi. It was pretty cool... The boys had the time of their lives!

Can't Thai us Down! (Sorry, I couldn't help myself!)

Hi Everyone!

It seems that there is a little rumour circulating that Mehdi and I could be back down under and at Gambrey Downs for Noel... I cannot confirm or deny this report at the current time. You'll just have to keep checking the blog for more updates!

We should be able to give a firm answer before the end of this month.

Once again, Mehdi and I only did a couple of flights together last month.

Our last one was Bangkok! That was one crazy ride! As soon as we got there we went straight for a thai massage at a 'Strictly Non-Sexual' massage parlour! It was really physical, knees in you back type stuff. I felt like she was doing yoga ON my body. But I felt great afterwards. We left the massage parlour and got into a cab to the night market! At this stage a huge tropical storm was starting to unleash itself overhead! It was a real treat... the lightning was AWSOME. By the time we got to Lumpini Market the streets were like rivers! I'm so glad it was too dark to see what we were wading through, double glad that we didn't have any open sores on our feet! Haven't seen so many overgrown cockies since Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom!

So we did a bit of shopping (pictured above). We picked up this set of three for about 20aud! I bought some flip flops as well!

Next Morning we got up and went for a walk in the city, did a bit more shopping...

Here I am near a temple a couple of streets away from our hotel. All these vendors string flowers together to sell as offerings to take to the temple.

This is just one last pic to sweep you off your feet (my bad again! sorry).
