印度第七天〔24-Jan〕
从新德里搭KingFisher飞到孟买，住进AB's Service Apartment。这是一间中级酒店，Ashwin喜欢这间因为比较靠近办公室。特色是晚上没热水！蚊子多！我跟酒店老板说，"Sorry, I need my passport back, in case police check me, especially now it's sensitive period, terrorism". 老板："Police will never check you, but you can check them! "。真是个又无奈又具讽刺性的笑话。
酒店外的夜市场(Ramdas路)有卖各式各样的服装，牛仔裤特别多。很明显的，都是冒牌货，但品质还不错，要注意拉链有没坏喔。有一百或两百的，选两百的吧，马币要13元。

印度第五天〔22-Jan〕
从Dehradun一路大雾路经Manglour镇，停下休息。感觉超冷，比香格里拉的四月冷，七八度吧。 喝了两杯indian tea，继续上路。经繁忙的Meerut，越接近就越塞车，到达Delhi班工室已经是八个小时后的事了。
公事做完后，友善的Jagdish带我们去Central Market。狂买了多件羊毛御寒衣，超便宜的。普通的只需Rs250，好料的也只是Rs600〔大概新币二十〕。

印度第四天〔21-Jan〕
公事做完后，从Paonta Sahib出发到Mussoorie，一个值得期待的地方。Mussoorie 是一个出名的高原渡假圣地。车子延着环山公路，爬上海拔六千尺，低达了市镇。黄昏风景还不错，冷风继续吹袭我们，应该有十度左右。
印度第三天〔20-Jan〕
Baddi到Dehradun塞车，狭窄，不平坦，大雾和绕山的道路，花了我们要四个小时。NH 72，National Highway 72，所谓的高速公路，应该讲是高速跳跃公路吧。Paonta Sahib 在这两地之间，我们接下来一天要从Dehradun折返。Dehradun的天气比Baddi暖和，十度左右吧。

印度的第一天 (18-Jan)
新航班机飞了五小时十分，当地时间十点到了新德里机场（Indira Gandhi International Airport），外面起了大雾, 温度是十三度，我还可以，只觉得比云顶冷一点。
感觉上这个新的国际机场并不新，国际抵达班机只有五班！
在机场出口外“找”到了接我的车夫。他过后送我去了Jaypee Vasant Continental酒店。一路上以他的破英文加大半的兴都话跟我谈天，我真不知如何回答他。

Bintan Club Med Trip 2009
Period: 19 - 21 Sep 2009
This is some records of my good trip to Bintan Club Med, Indonesia, my company organized trip.
It took 15 mins for the bus from bintan ferry terminal to Club Med. Received warm welcome from staffs, they stood at the entrance and waved at us when we are reaching. GO, this is what they called guest officer, many of them, they have people that can speak english, japanese, korean, and of course french. We had a good team building game organized by one of the appointed GO.

We had a good team building game organized by one of the appointed GO.
After the game, we went for archery session, it was really interesting and I love it very much. They have only right handed bow, which is not suitable for me, as I need my stronger right hand to control and aim. This is my first time in my life to try archery, each person is allowed to bow 18 arrows.
After rich buffet dinner in the evening, we went to watch the 'circus' show. The show is conducted at the swimming pool. However, It was raining, the show was cancelled and replaced by an impromptu indoor stage performance. Their objective is to makes you laugh, a funny show. Performers are multi national, audient also multi national, and everyone show their respectful thanks by clapping till the hand swells. It was the funniest show I ever seen, some more the performers all from club med GO itself. Can't describe the show details, it is really a show in club med that can never missed. After learning from the Mauritius GO, Nicholas, the 'strongest' & darkest man in Club Med, the show name is 'Too Funny', he has performed stun by stepping on the bottle glass.
Tasted a glass of Paradise at bar. It was great. All drinks at bar are free flow and foc. Alcoholic and non-alcoholic are available.
Shortcoming: No tooth paste and tooth brush in the room. Room condition is a bit old, overall need renovations.
Polo shirt with Bintan Club Med is Rp 359,000 (abt SGD 50), which is not cheap. I bought 2.
Internet? There are 3 machines available. All the rooms have strong Wifi signal, no WEP key required to connect, but need user id and password to access. Both can get from Reception free of charge. For public area, only reception floor and swimming pool floor has signal. I thinks that's good enough.
Mobile? The strongest signal is from Indosat. Surprisingly I received Maxis signal from the block we stay, Jati, room number starts from J. I believe that's the only area that I can make call back home at local rate. Celcom and Digi signals also detected.
2nd day is the swimming day. Got a Pool Towel card from reception, it's needed to exchange towel from the pool counter. There's no pool side bar, but the bar is within walking distance. Remember, drinks are always free and free flow.
Sea swim, another good one, water is clear like swimming pool. No big wave. Ideal for swimming. I can't wait to jump straight into it!
Remarks: Must bring the sun glasses, the reflection from the sand hurts.
What other things you can do? Tennis, badminton, squash, basketball, street soccer, table tennis and also gymnasium.
What's the most special thing about Club Med? The People. The GOs (Guest Officer) are trained to be very friendly, they cheer you when you arrived, they 'must' join your table during meal time, they talked to you like your old buddy, they clap and accompany you when you are departing home, and the chief of village is one of them.
I went back home after 2 nights stay.

Most Expensive Ovaltine (阿华田) in My Life
The night when I was sicked, I did not even have strength to go down 7-Eleven to buy a hot drink. With the advice from my lovely wife, I decided to order the in-room dining service, for a cup of hot Ovaltine.
Guess how much it cost? HKD 63.80. It is the most expensive Ovaltine I ever drank.

Sick in Hong Kong
I was having fever last night, the second day after I arrived Hong Kong on Sunday. Work still need to carry on, can't afford to take MC. Took 2 tablets of Panadol (必理痛 in Hong Kong Cantonese version), cirit during midnight.
Today resumed work at regional office, feeling better. I hope it's not H1N1.
(above pictures were taken from my room, facing Kowloon, ICC - International Commerce Centre - ICC Tower on the left, the going-to-be tallest building in Hong Kong, 118 stories, 484m)
