Party Time Is Karaoke Time

I am quite busy now with a lot of things. Life offline and as well as online are always keeping me busy. One thing that keeps me busy will be the party this coming weekend. Some friends called it  a  birthday aftershock celebration. Yes, yes it's party time!

I can have the chance to get together with friends again. For sure singing with the karaoke is also present. I have some good friends who can sing so good. I even have some friends who can play guitars and keyboard as well. They are band member anyway, the reason why the can really play good music. I would like to recommend Alesis at musicians friend  if they are searching for musical gadgets and instruments.  I wish they are here in my birthday aftershock.

I can't wait this coming weekend. I will surely hear the voices or I would say the "song birds" again. Party time is karaoke time! Cheers!

Cruising in Bosphorus, Istanbul

It is a beautiful sunny day today. I love this weather during fall season. It is quite cold outside but I don't have to worry because I am actually inside the house now.

It was over a year now when we had a 10-days trip in Turkey, the only country that can be found  both in Asia and Europe. One of the  places we visited  was its capital city, Istanbul. I can't believed that there are also a lot of interesting historical sights in this city.  To name a few are the  Hagia Sophia, Sultan Ahmet Mosque, Topkapi Palace, Basilica Cistern and many more.

For me the highlight of our trip in Istanbul was the short cruise we had in the Bosphorus or Bosporus. It is also called as the Istanbul Strait and form as the boundary of Asia and Europe.  There are a lot of sights you can when cruising in Bosphorus, from Mosque to historical buildings and houses and villas that are  lined-up along the strait.

I am quite contented with that trip we had in Turkey last September 2011.

Shopping In A Hardware Store

The sun is shining now! I love autumn season with sunshine.  When we drove to the
nearest hardware store in our area last week, the surroundings are already so colorful. This is the sign of fall season and I love it.


Baumarkt, a German word actually means a store that sells building materials. We are trying to find a rolling warehouse ladder but they don't seem to carry it. We ended up buying a new bath tub because we are currently renovating our bathroom. We also bought other accessories needed in installing our new bathtub and other materials needed in renovating our bathroom.

I hope that the renovation is done before the end of the month. I believed yes, we can do it!

The Stratosphere Tower in Las Vegas

Are you visiting Las Vegas? I just did and just came back home in Europe two weeks ago. During my first visit in this city last 2008, I did not have the chance to go up there.  During my second visit, I finally went  up there. I was so happy and contented.

Stratosphere is a tower, a hotel and entertainment place located in Las Vegas Boulevard.  This tower is the tallest observation tower and the tallest structure in Las Vegas.  It is also the 9th tallest free standing structure in the United States. Its  current height is 1,149 ft  or 350 m.

Its attractions include The Big Shot, Insanity the Ride, and the SkyJump Las Vegas.

On top of the tower, you can have a fantastic 360 degrees view   of Las Vegas. I truly enjoyed my visit there! Cheers!

Walk With a Friend

After the short nap I had this afternoon, I received a call from a friend who invited me to have a walk with her. I found it a very good idea since I ate a lot during lunch in a Greek restaurant near our area. I also had a good time conversing with her during our walk. She had been talking about buying a new home in the US. I want to mention to her about fayetteville nc rentals but she wanted to buy a house instead. That is also a good choice because buying one is also an investment.

I would say, I had a wonderful day today after spending with some friends. Most of all, I love seeing the nature around during our walk. The autumn season made the surroundings more colorful and beautiful. I love it!

Visit to the Valley of Fire in Nevada, USA

It was again a memorable and wonderful trip I had in the United States lately. There  are a lot of places that I visited during my second visit and one of it  is the Valley of Fire State Park. I felt honored to visit the first  State  Park  in Nevada, USA.  It was not a good weather when we went there because was still hot in Nevada that time but still I enjoyed our visit. The   rock formations are  truly  amazing in this park.

Thanks a lot sistah and hubby for bringing me there. I miss you guys and  hope to see you next time again.

It covers an area of almost 42,000 acres (17,000 ha) and was dedicated in 1935. It derives its name from red sandstone formations, formed from great shifting sand dunes during the age of dinosaurs. These features, which are the centerpiece of the park's attractions, often appear to be on fire when reflecting the sun's rays.

Destination weddings in Florida - Choosing the right Wedding planner or contractor

The concept of holding destination weddings in Florida is truly exciting and one can truly have lots of fun. Planning your wedding is very important and the couple has to actually sit down and decide with their family about how to plan the wedding arrangements. If they have help and there are people to do the running about, separate contractors may be hired for looking after the catering, flower arrangements, food, music and dance, and so on. But if there are few people to handle the arrangements, the best way out is to choose a wedding planner who will help you plan everything from the start till the end.

The moments of destination weddings in Florida is surely going to be cherished for a lifetime and your guests are also going to enjoy all the arrangements if it would be done and arranged very tastefully and beautifully.

A lot of organizing and planning goes into arranging the destination weddings. There has to be a lot of coordination with the contractors so that there is nothing left out or amiss on the wedding. The couple also gets a lot of time to spend with each other and so are the parents who would be more relaxed and stress free. This however does not mean that the couple does not take any interest in the wedding preparations. They can express their thoughts and give their ideas concerning catering, flower arrangements, gift packing and return gift ideas and so on. You obviously do not want things and arrangements to go haywire on the most important day of your life.

You may also speak to couples who have had destination weddings in Florida and their views on it. This gives you some tips and suggestions and if something has not worked for them, you can refrain from doing those activities. Also, this saves a lot of your efforts, time and money.
