I am finally back from my 2-week holiday. What a great break from daily routine!! I have even turned off my mobile during those period and guess what? I got to enjoy a peaceful holiday with my family, away from sms-es and calls!!! I will attempt to do this again for my next family holidays!
Thank you to all of you who have visited this blog and left your comments and greetings. It will take me awhile to catch up on all the postings. I wish all of you a very Happy New Year and a blessed year ahead! I would like to share this message that was sms-ed to me with all of you. It says " Life is short, forgive quickly, give generously, love truly, show gratitude to those who have helped you and never regret anything that made you smile or cry as life is a journey of discovery. Happy New Year and may it bring you happiness, good health and continued success!"

Today's photo was taken in a really old temple in KL's Chinatown. I like the old charms feel of the entire place, ranging from the architecture of the building and even the friendly, elderly people there. You can see in the photo, there are 2 friendly faces arranging the incense and paper used for prayers.
In Chinatown, it is easy to find elderly people to share a table with in the dim sum or coffee shop. These elders are very warm and welcoming towards young people. I always enjoy sharing a table with them at the dim sum restaurant. They would gather there after their morning exercises and catch up on their daily exchange of happenings in each other's lives. It's fun to just sit there and enjoy their conversation while I sip my cup of Chinese tea and enjoy a hot, steamed loh mai kai (glutinuous rice). It's a simple pleasure that always leave me with a warm feeling.

Welcome home & have nice day.
Hi JC!
Happy New Year and all the best wishes to you too. May 2009 be a healthy, prosperous, and joyful year for you and your family.
I'm glad you and your family enjoyed Bandung.
It's been a while since I visited Malaysia. And looking at the wonderful pictures of places in Subang Jaya, KL, and Putra Jaya from your blog, I'd probably have to convince my wife that we should go and visit Malaysia in our next holiday.
Linky won't accept your URL - I have tried twice and have two 'cannot find' returns.
I will see if I can put something in comments.
That is a great picture to start the 2009 season.
All the best to you and your family.
This is a very striking image and the words are a fascinating read. Happy 2009
Sorry so few seems to have used the blogroll to come your way.
