Driving at the Sepang F1 International Circuit at Malaysia
I have to admit I am not much of a driver! And yet I ended up driving (OK only at 80kmph) at the Sepang F1 International Circuit in Malaysia today. It was not intended but it still happened. We all as the part of our Tourism Hunt 2012 were invited to the Sepang International F1…
A Night Cruise Through Putrajaya, Malaysia
When I was at Putrajaya the last time I didn’t went on a cruise. Last time I also didn’t use a tripod to click pictures. And guess what? This time I realized that my tripod is broken and I was taking a night cruise at Putrajaya. First I sulked, some more because I was very…
First Thoughts of a Mushy Brain
Have you ever tried blogging when your brain is a mush? I am at KL International Airport waiting for the two Mumbai participants to arrive. I know how international immigration is so I am patient.

Sky at Tengboche, Everest Base Camp Trek, Nepal
I am once again falling back on my Everest Base Camp Trek pictures for the Skywatch. This was a little later after sunrise. The sun became strong within no time! In the region the sun rises over all the lofty mountains like the Everest, Ama Dablam, Nuptse etc. And in the evening when the light…
Silver Pheasant and Mandarin Duck, KL Bird Park, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
I have posted pictures from the KL Bird Park before. I actually like to identify the birds before I post them so two more exotic ones got left out initially. They are the Silver Pheasant and Mandarin Duck. At that point of time I was clicking pictures for making a stop motion video. How I wish I…
