CA Chillin'

I got a bonus trip to CA!!  We spent a week just relaxing on the West Coast…and I couldn’t have been happier.  We were home-based in Beverly Hills…so there might have been some shopping. ;)  And of course there was food….food…and more food! Here are a few photos and video I wanted to share in this mini update.  

 Taiwan Airport...getting closer! ;)

Cute Coffee!

Griffith Observatory

On this trip we even visited the Griffith Observatory (my first time ever!), and watched a show…it was great!  You might remember it from movies such as Rebel Without a Cause, Charlie’s Angels, Transformers and many more.  (More info HERE)

 I'm such a kid

 Charlie's Angels

 A Rebel Without A Cause (James Dean)

On this trip I was all about the Cali style Korean food....above is a Bibimbap...yummy!

Video of us trying the Kogi Food Truck...for more info click HERE and HERE

If you ever find yourself in LA, do yourself a big favour and find this food truck...you will not be disappointed.  We tried, and I highly recommend, the Short Rib Burrito.

This trip was such a happy surprise....

Fint really know's how to keep our adventure interesting!

I guess, by now, I should always expect the unexpected!! ;)

Neptune Regatta 2015 Announcement Party & Ice Bucket Challenge

It was a sunny Sunday afternoon, so we set sail with some friends to a little island off Singapore to spend the day at the beach with the Neptune Regatta 2015 Announcement Party for Singapore. 

For more info on the Neptune Regatta (which we will be doing in February) visit HERE

Here are some photos from the day and the ice bucket challenge video at the end.

Lunch at sea

Party Boats

What a great weekend...full of friends, boating, outdoors, 

salty water, laughs and good causes!

Ice Bucket Challenge for ALS

Fint was also nominated by Alice and Richard to do the Ice Bucket for ALS Challenge...and he accepted.  Let me tell you that water feels very, very, very cold in 35 degree weather!  But of course, Fint had to do it in his style! ;)
