The Fountain Inside Ballys Hotel, Las Vegas

I can't believe that I can visit the city which is the dream of most people to see. I was in Las Vegas last year. Imagine a two months vacation in the US. I took the photo of this Fountain inside Ballys Hotel. I miss this place where we always hang-out to watch my cousin performs. My cousin Ann is a very good singer and entertainer. I am hoping to visit it next year to also see my sister once again.

My Friend Got a Red Scarf in Passau

It's time to share something with red again. My friend was wearing a white and red scarf here during our visit to Passau, a city in Bavaria, Germany last weekend. This picture was taken in the Residence Square in Passau. You can also see the fountain in our background. That was a memorable trip last weekend. I am also happy to see good friends once again.

Visit to Rothenburg ob der Tauber in Bavaria, Germany

This is a special post for a blogger friend named James from the US. He was asking for some photos from Rothenburg ob der Tauber in Bavaria, Germany. I wish to share more photos but I am running of my bandwidth in uploading photos. I might end up paying for it next year when the allocated bytes for uploading photos is full. The picture here is the Town Hall of Rothenburg. I guess it don't look like Manhattan hotels as what I have seen in a travel catalog this morning. Others might be thinking this is a hotel but its not. We visited this historical medieval town last January 2008 as you can see the embedded date in the picture. I am still hoping to visit this city again. Visit my Explore Germany site for more photos.

Beautiful Chrysanthemum

Chrysanthemums were first cultivated in China as a flowering herb as far back as the 15th century BC. An ancient Chinese city (Xiaolan Town of Zhongshan City) was named Ju-Xian, meaning "chrysanthemum city". The plant is particularly significant during the Double Ninth Festival. The flower was introduced into Japan probably in the 8th century AD, and the Emperor adopted the flower as his official seal. There is a "Festival of Happiness" in Japan that celebrates the flower.

The flower was brought to Europe in the 17th century. Linnaeus named it from the Greek word chrysous, "golden"(the colour of the original flowers), and -anthemon, meaning flower. wikipedia

Visit to Eremitage in Bayreuth

We visited Eremitage, a castle in Bayreuth last August. They also have a very nice garden there. This water pond you see in my photo is also found in the castle. I wish to go back there again to see more around. We just spend some hours there and it is not enough for looking around. That's me in the photo! Goodnight for now!

Bought A Red Camping Guide for Germany

HB was laughing at me as he saw me taking a picture of the book I bought last weekend and put inside a red pail while carrying it. That is why the background is also red because I also bought a red pail. I am just getting ready for a camping escapade next year. The title of the book means Camping Guide for Germany, Austria, Switzerland and South Tirol. I wish to experience more travel next year when finances are available. I won't stay too long tonight. I have to wake up early tomorrow to attend a funeral ceremony of HB's relative. The place is around two hours drive from us. Condolence to HB's family and relatives.

I wish everyone a wonderful start of the month of November! I wish to visit you soon. sorry got some problems with our pc and netbook.
