17th October 2008

The events of 17th October 2008
For the first time in my life, I don't want to get soaked in the rain. It was freezing cold, just like pouring ice water on you after you just came out from the bathroom. The temperature dropped to 8 degrees. Haha,..can't blame the weather because weather.yahoo.com already warned me about this. haha.
When it is raining, it's really gloomy here. Almost the whole day was gloomy. 
Mercator Center is 'the' hypermart cum supermart cum convinient store...except that it doesn't open 24-7, closes after 8PM and on Sundays. Mercator Center is everywhere in Slovenia. This is their main grocery shopping center.
This is our client's office. 
Taken after work. Freezing cold, about 4 degrees. We are the last to chow.
Well, you guess it right, we went to Venezia again and this time, we had Galileo Pizza. (Salmon pizza). Nice but a bit too salty. Very salty. haha

16th of October

The event of the day for 16th October 2008
Sunrise! 6AM! Jet lag....that's why I woke up at 4AM.

This is where we will be staying. Penzion Zbilje. Penzion means "Guesthouse". Zbilje is the town name. 
Our room.I sleep at the corner, near the window.....chilling

This is where I blog.
Heater but we never turned on...Macho man don't turned on heater.

Morning walk to the nearby lake...Swan Lake. 
This is my first encounter with a swan. It was so cold...ears and finger pain...about 13 degree in the morning and this swan swam so gracefully in the water....crazy.
Well, sometimes I think we are poorly fed in Malaysia.This is our breakfast provided by the hotel. SUPERB! 
Dinner time at Venezia, one of the famous Pizza-inn in town. 


We ordered 1 Large Pizza, and have it divided into 2. This is full. This is Venezia pizza. 

Nothing isn't good without beer. Union beer, Slovenia local beer. And next to it is Cockta, Slovenian local Coca-Cola. Well, older generation of Slovenians are still anti-Capitalist. They hate Coca-Cola. Cockta is good as it doesn't contain any caffeine.


Hehe.. me enjoying my beer. Dinner was Euro 10.90 for 2 person. Budgeted. keke..

We went to the same place. This time we ordered, Household Pizza. Darn. It's SUPERB! I had Union as well . Wahhaha... It's Euro 12 for 2 pax.
No more pizza when I am home.
