Movie Night - Pirates of The Carribean, Dead Man's Chest


Our company treated us to a night of movie fun at the Breeze Centre, not far from Sogo department store, Taipei. What did we watch? Why, Johnny Depp, Kiera Knightly and Orlando Bloom and their co-stars in Pirates of the Carribean, Dead Man's Chest.

It was a great movie, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Lots of action and not to mention comedy, especially the Johnny Depp kind. Orlando Bloom wasn't too bad either, with his action comedy scenes. The special effects used wasn't so bad either, especially making Captain Davy Jones look like an walking octopus-head pirate sailor was quite impressive, and not to mention the Kraken! If one of those came after me, I wouldn't have a clue how to deal with it! My pants would certainly change into a different colour!


The annoying thing is the end, it leaves us at such a cliff hanger, and we all just know we need to watch the third installment of those pirates from the Carribean.

Although the movie was great, less could be said about the pop-corn we had. I am sure it was made 3 days ago...

This morning, Saturday, Amelie and I got woken up by a lot of shouting outside in the living area. The father-in-law had come to pick up his son, Shu-yu today, and at the same time to his wife that the house is untidy and why is his son still wearing Winter clothes etc. Sounds like the usual Saturday morning there.

Amelie is watching me type this, and as usual curiosity has taken over her, trying to press various buttons on my notebook and talking to me in some alien language. Ah bless her for taken interest in a blog which is for her. Actually, this blog was started when she was 15 weeks old in her mother's womb! Lets see whether she will continue this when she gets older. I will make more of an effort to record more Amelie-related antics in the near future. As usual, it would be posted with many of her photos. You can always find more photos at my homepage too, if you got nothing better to do.



At this moment, Amelie is trying to put her shoes on, which means Chien-yu and I have to get ready to go out. Until next time, have a great weekend!

Homeward Bound (For 2 Weeks)

We're setting off later this evening to UK for a couple of weeks. Can't wait to see Manchester and Ashton-under-Lyne again, not to mention to catch with friends and family and of course do a bit of driving! I haven't been driving for more than a year now since I have been in Taiwan, feels like my legs have gone! We're taking a lot pineapple cakes, which Taiwan is famous for, back to friends and family in UK, and some other gifts too. On the way back, we'll bring back all sorts of stuff to Taiwan, so another post on that when I get back. Not sure whether I'll be able to get online as often, but will try my best to keep my blog updated as much as possible while I am over in UK. My grand parents also arrived in UK from Hong Kong to attend my brother Jimmy's wedding. So time would probably be spent travelling around and take to places to see and have fun. Don't worry, as always, I'll be taking pictures! It will be Amelie's first time visit to UK...

Goodbye P-100

I'm just going to upload the last ever set of photos from our loyal Sony P-100. I will update this post tomorrow. Yup, the Sony P-100 is a gonna. It ain't gonna rise from the ashes, this time... For now here are some photos taken today around Taipei using the Sony P-100 before the evening's accident, which involved Chien-yu, her foot and the hard marble floor we have in our room. We now got a good excuse to get a new, better digital camera. Its going to have to be a Sony one though, because I invested in a 1GB memory stick. Need to make use of that as much as I can! Sigh, money, money and more money.

Superman Snappy

Snap the man of steel and score points! My first attempt, I got 82. This will just have to do until I get a new camera.
