2007-04APR CRAB ISLAND


This is the fish farm and where one who loves fishing can stay overnight in the little green hut above.

This scene is a bit dull in reality. So I got to turn it either into sepia or monochrome hopefully to make it look a bit better. Did it look better or worst?

This is the group of 7 including me who went for this Crab Island Exploration on 2007-04-29. Though the sky is a bit cloudy that day, but still I got a little bit of sun burn. Overall the trip is OK but I feel that place can be improved further for the Visit Malaysia 2007.

2007 PHOTOS - SKY

Taken on 2007-04-20 at about 7.25pm. I was on my way home from the office when I noticed that the sky is sort of having a laser beam display. So I stop my car at the road side, wind down the window as it was drizzling and took a few shots.

This was taken on 2007-04-29 while I was on my way home after visiting the "Crab Island". My husband was driving at that time, so I just took out my camera and snap from the front seat where I was sitting.

2006-08AUG HOKKAIDO FOOD

Throughout the trip in Hokkaido, this is the best meal I ever had in Hakodate and is the cheapest JPY500 only. We thought of eating again the next day before we leave for the next destination but did not make it.


This is Ivy san dinner at Hakodate. Mine was so so. Wrong choice. It is always your neighbour that looks better.

This is my favourite. Hotate (scallop). I had this for my dinner.
