Selamat Hari Raya 2012

Dalam Kerendahan Hati ada Ketinggian budi

Dalam Kemiskinan Harta ada kekayaan Jiwa

Dalam Kelembutan Lidah ada keterlanjuran kata

Dalam Gurau senda tentu ada khilaf dan dosa

Mohon Kemaafan dan Selamat Hari Raya Aidilfitri

Maaf Zahir & Batin

Calico Ghost Town & Needles

Second day of our vacation, we leave Los Angeles and travel to Needles. It is a long drive and we planned to visit Calico Ghost Town before we stop at needles for overnight and continue our journey to Grand Canyon for the next day. But before we leave Los Angeles we want to see the HOLLYWOOD sign of course. We asked the person at the hotel where we can see the sign and he told us to go to Griffith Park Observatory. Set our GPS to that place. it up in the hill and passed so many beautiful houses on the way to the hills.

The best view we can took with our camera.Hmmm need larger camera

Ride that you must try in Universal Studio

Studio Tour.

Our Comment from the above rides: Unforgettable experience. All in 3D but the feeling is like riding the real roller coaster. Studio Tour is amazing, they have the largest 3D show for King Kong 360. So if you have a chance to go to Universal Studio don't miss the fun. Especially the King Kong. We felt that we were surrounded by the Dinosours..haha. They also show us how is the stunt movies made. They show us a few scene that used in movie making.
