It is a good day to go crabbing at Garibaldi Bay for Dungeness crabs. The water is calm and after throwing the crab pots into the bay, we have a picnic at a sandy island. This is the best way to catch crabs for people like me who gets sea sick in the ocean. We manage to get a good catch and have a delicious Dungeness crabs feast afterwards.

Shane's track meet colleague Jim McLachlan's sweet corn field produces one of the sweetest and most delicious sweet corns I've ever eaten. It is located in the Otis Orchards in Washington State. The sweet corns are so popular that they are sold out amongst friends and neighbors. Harvesting and selling them is a fun time for family and friends meetup.

Our family has a beautiful wedding at Hoh Rainforest in the Olympic Peninsula. Ryan fell in love with this place when Shane brought him and his friends over here on a college spring break. He has visited this rainforest every chance he got and brought Kasandra along. We found a beautiful spot and Kasandra's mom officiated their nuptial.

Paddle boarding is a new water sport for me and I failed miserably on my first trip to Hauser Lake. Shane made it looked easy but it wasn't. I spent a week at the gym to improve my balance and today I am so proud to say I did it! We invited our daughter-in-law and grandson to join us to Hauser Lake and had a fun filled day.

A trip to Swiss Garden Resort Kuantan, Pahang gave us a once in a lifetime fishing experience with the local fishermen. They were amazing hardworking people and the community spirit in still prevalent amongst villagers. We ate giant freshly caught prawns cooked for us by one of the men. A wonderful experience we want to repeat one day.

Angkor Wat is the main reason we visit Cambodia. The Angkor Wat is the largest of all temples in the Angkor Archaeological Park. These historical sites are so vast, we only managed to cover a portion of them in a day. If you have watched Tomb Raider movie, Ta Prohm is where the filming took place and is one of the most visited temple here.

Borneo, rainforest, Kuching, Sarawak – these are the words that come to mind when Shane suggests a jungle trekking adventure. I'm a scaredy cat, afraid of leeches, snakes and tigers. What I brought back from this trip are great memories, triumphant moment and amazing food experience. Rich culture diversities, friendly people, good ambience.

Batu Caves, located in Gombak, Selangor, Malaysia is a limestone hill that has a series of caves with Hindu temples in them. It is popular with thousands of Hindu worshippers and tourists alike. I have been raving to Shane about the wild monkeys there and was excited to show him the culture and wildlife.
