Shane retraces his mom's visit to the Crane House Museum with me. Her uncle Henry once lived in that house. A photo of her dad and Henry rolling on log is also in the museum! Interesting visit to see artifacts and memorabilia from the Harrison's early settlement days. There is even a jailhouse at the back! Bonus – family history added in this post.

We make an easy 40 minutes drive to Lake Coeur d'Alene in Idaho to have breakfast at Coeur d'Alene Resort & Spa, and then a lazy stroll on the longest floating boardwalk in the world! The clear sky, fresh breeze and cobalt blue water make for a great photo op. The Mudgy Moose Trail see us walking around the city center and into the park looking for moose.

My first trip back to Singapore after 20 years make me realize how much I've missed Singapore and most of all my families! We visit a few attractions but get caught paying a hefty price for our lunch. The time spend with my aunt and uncle is priceless and they join me to Singapore Changi Airport for my walk down memory lane.

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.

Naza World with kids is a great activity idea for a fun weekend with family. This automobile showroom has a great collection of sports cars and motorcycles. It's car enthusiasts’ paradise. We have so much fun exploring the vehicles. Sales executives at Naza World Automall are very professional and friendly. An excursion kids still talk about everyday.

The Kuala Lumpur Butterfly Park’s website promised us the largest butterfly garden in the world with over 5000 live butterflies, exotic plants, flowers, and ferns. We visited this park in anticipation of a great time. Unfortunately it was a huge disappointment and a waste of time. Read more and find out why we said this.

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.
