Another Virtual Cycling Beta – Road Grand Tours (RGT)
Back in early 2018 when I registered for the VirtuGO Beta testing, I had also requested for participation in another virtual cycling platform testing – The Road Grand Tours (RGT) Closed Beta programme.
Being Touched 一點感觸
Flight from Hong Kong to Taipei is quite short and roughly takes about 120 minutes. Excluding activities like takeover, meal serving and landing, actual flight time is really short.
Since my previous trip to Taiwan lasted for more than two weeks, I had to settle all those ongoing issues before the trip. Having just few hours of sleep before leaving Hong Kong, I was a little bit tired after boarding the plane. As such a short flight time made sleeping or watching a movie not really feasible, I finally decided to take a rest and listen to some music instead.
十二月往台北的航程不算太長，約120分鐘的飛行時間，減去起飛、進餐、降落等，實際剩餘時間不多。
由於這次在台逗留時間較長，很多日常雜務都要事先安排好，也因此前一天很晚才入睡。坐在早班機位上已覺有些累，想小睡但稍嫌不足看，電影又未必能看得完，最後决定合上眼聽點音樂，稍作休息吧。
I am .. bakery
My boy was having his Taekwondo promotion examination again in mid January. Same as before, the examination was hosted in a small multi-function hall in Po Lam of Tseung Kwan O. With such a large number of kids participating in various stages of the event, the examination was finally completed by 5 o’clock in the afternoon.
I felt a little bit hungry on our return and noticed a shop opposite to the Po Lam MTR Station that came with a very interesting name – I am .. bakery. Sounded great and worth a try.
小朋友在一月中又要挑戰他的跆拳道進級試，今次試場也一如過往位於將軍澳寶琳。由於場地較細，應考學員卻非常之多，考試最終在臨近下午五時才完成。回家路上肚子有些餓，想找點東西吃，剛巧在地鐵寶琳站附近見到一間麵包店，名字頗特別 – I am .. bakery，就走去試一試吧。
Lunar New Year Hiking 農曆新年行山活動
During the Lunar New Year Holidays, most of the shops and restaurants will be closed. Even you can find restaurant that is open for service, it will definitely include a 10% surcharge. Other than visiting relatives or friends, hiking is believed to be the most cost saving activities. Not only we can consume some of our free time, it will also bring good health to us and that’s why we had two hiking trips in this holidays.
農曆新年期間市面非常淡靜，商舗和食肆大都休息，即使照常營業的很多時都會有加一的安排。假期間除了拜年外，最慳錢的活動相信是行山。既可一家人消磨數小時，也對身體健康有裨益。就像今個新年假期，我們一家就走了兩轉了。
My Visit to the Singapore Polytechnic 參觀新加坡理工大學 (4 July 2018)
周三下午，我們從樟宜國際機場出發，前往新加坡理工大學。旅途中欣賞了導遊Jessy關於新加坡文化和歷史的介紹。到達後，我們參觀了充滿學生創作遊戲的圖書館，包括各種機械遊戲和一間研究鐳射切割的小房間。隨後進行了三小時的自由活動，大家玩得非常開心。
Flash Travel – Tainan 快閃台南
n our past holiday travels, I would usually prepare detailed itinerary for the trip. However, as my boy is getting older, he has his own expectation on the travel and the places for our visit may change from time to time. As such, nowadays, I only planned for the flights and accommodations, the rest of the trip will only be worked out during the trip.
In my recent Taipei/Kaohsiung trip, we had made a flash travel to Tainan.
以往到外地旅行，事前總會作極詳盡的行程編排，隨著小朋友日漸長大，多了些他自己的意願，想去的地方也會隨時改變，因此我也只會安排交通住宿，其他的行程到時才決定。
像剛過去的台北、高雄之旅，我們也作了一次台南快閃行動。
