Journey to Flagstaff, Arizona

Woke up really early this morning, ate breakfast at the hilton embassy suites, checked out, send the car back, and then waited for the shuttle service.

We were greeted by 'Jeremy' friendly driver I would say; The journey was boring, talking once in a while with the folks there..
Spotted a roller coaster ride.
Did I mention the speedlimit is 75miles per hour? That's like.... 120kmh, oh wait? The driver was going at 80mph. But he says it is perfectly legal, they have this, obstruction rule? Well you are suppose to speed up when there are tonnes of cars behind

Hehe, when we arrive at flagstaf, they somehow knew we were coming and send SNOW!?!?! YEAH SNOW!!! 

Arizona Biltmore Spa & Resort, DevCon!

Limited internet access at the hotel i'm staying at, so i'll just post pictures in sequence what we have done so far
The 'Crew' from left, Hayati from IWK, Munyau, from hesper, Jacob from Speedminer, En. Roslan from UTM, and finally, En. Murad from Celcom. As you can see, the wind is very very strong! First day of dinner at DevCon.
This is the introduction, presented by a few fellahs, don't recall their names.
Just a shots of Biltmore Spa & Resort.



Oh yeah, the background, see the beautiful mountain? That view reminds me about Grand Canyon, someplace i'll visit tomorrow.
My very first ZEN class, to be frank, I think ZEN will revolutionised development phase.
My final product, a webpage coded with a few lines in ZEN
Yeap that mountain again

A shot, Anne reminded me to take a few pictures of myself, I did, here's one of them.
Aha, famous cacti
flowers
That's me sleeping and accidentally hitting the shuttle on the camera, some of the classes were just plain boring.
Oh yeah, did i mention that the resort is a golfing resort?

I don't know about this game...


Bluffer maze
Hahah rodeo! Almost tried when Murad, Hayati and Roslan challenged me, but tweaked my neck muscle 2 days ago, so rather not take the chance.
BANG! Once again, i was ready to play this simply BANG BANG game until Hayati, Murad and Roslan wanted to balik rumah hehehe. No offence ya!
Oh, yes, En. Roslan survived 5 seconds on the rodeo ride
Night Shot.

That's all i have for now, that's the arizona biltmore spa and resort.........

My last conference class

Too bad, i'm using one of those training computer to go online, so wont be able to post any pictures. Anyway i'm taking the last class offered here, its called, "Securing Zen Components".... sounds boring? Well for techy guys, it is kinda interesting actually.

Alright, no more internet after this for the next day or so forth, will try to get access when i reach FlagStaff.

Day 2, Preview

This probably will be my final day blogging, as the internet access will be cut off pretty soon, NO TALK! just pictures.

Day 1, LA and Arizona

Hrmm..... well, I'm suffering from jet lag, why? because we were on the plane for 24 freaking hours, and since it is econ class, no leg room, thus, sakit tulang belakang!!!

Actually it is not that bad, managed to sleep well for about 30 minutes at 4 hours interval. The flight itinerary is as follow;


1. KL to Taipei - mind you, the people in taipei are Xtreamly rude! (not all of them) thus i totally had no mood to take pictures there.
2. Taipei to LA - the people in LA are not any better, except that funny guy at the United Airlines counter, he was nice and funny too, reminds me of Police Academy, Tackleberry! hehe
The only thing i got off taiwan.
3. LA to Phoenix - waited for 5 hours at LA airport, we walked from terminal 2 to terminal 7, sounds near? YOU TRY IT!!!! temperature was excellent! 15 degrees C.
This screen appeared when I was watching a movie on the plane, looks like linux is prone to crashing too! hehe

Arrived at LA about 7.30pm, it was late already, the temperature was surprisingly high yesterday, 31 C, but it was okay, got used to it.

Rented a car too, from Dollar Trifty, it was pretty cheap i guess, USD350 for 5 days, plus underage tax (siau kia, their 'overage' is above 25) and got myself a GPS system too (SUPER NIFTY!)

Drove straight to Embassy Suite (hilton) and SLEEP LA!!!!!!!......

Seriously, driving in US for the first time was somewhat scarry, every turn I have to remind myself to drive on the RIGHT LANE!!!.... geesh that's hard when u have been on a plane for almost 24 hours straight.

Below are some post of our hotel and room, will snap more later and post up more

That's about it. Next post will be day 2

US anti terrorism act

Haha! I am on my way to LA now, and guess what? Got a great story to share later....
As you know, a picture speaks a thousand words, and that is what i don't have right now.

Currently at the Taoyuan International Airport, Taipei, Taiwan. People here are not friendly at all, the airport makes u climb stairs, and for an old boy like me (cough cough) well, not so suitable.

At least they have Wi Fi here and ... stay tuned.
