Back in 6-Month; The Saqqara


As have promised to deliver all the photos taken from my Egypt trip, here are they. I know it's a bit or very very late to do this, but still there are people out there that would like to see how great Egypt is. Photos had been prepared for long time, but only been post them on today for many reasons. Anyway... ...


The Saqqara Steps Pyramid, one of a traditionally building attributed to the Pharaoh Khafre.


It is an absolute wonder of engineering to build this huge thing and...


Its distinctive architectural style totally identifies it as being among the oldest stone buildings in Egypt.


The steps pyramids were built before the Giza pyramid, which means older than the most famous pyramid today.



Use to be, 8km long and 1km wide.
The great necropolis reconstructed in its entirety.
But now, there are not much left to be see anymore.



Still a great place to visit, because most of the important structures are still existing.


Here are some other random shots,






It is big, and it's memorable.

Night Session with the Grindbox


Rollerblading can be aggressive,
Rollerblading can be fun;
Rollerblading is art,
Rollerblading is dance.

I watch this video again and again, and I can feel that we could do this too.
Shall we?

WL33 : ASNH : SASP : Spotlight Session


This time, I'm sharing our very 1st skating session in Shah Alam skatepark, using our own spotlights. And yes, for the very 1st time, the very junior engineer came late. Therefore, the light was not on until he came. Check out the 1st picture of our spotlight, cool huh? Then check out out first session photos..


Oh yeah, Bahrum from Brunei proudly pulled off his power trick. That's all of our 1st session photos. Haha!!


We ended up using car headlights for our very 1st spotlight session.
Why? 1st of all, because our generator fuel tank was empty.
Why was it empty? Because we chose the day when the price of petrol was going up to RM2.70 per litre the day after (Not that we mind about the price, but the queue!!!).
Why didn't we fill the generator tank up before the night fell? Because Sukeats and I were too apathetic to do that.

So we learn the lesson then.

And the following is showing how useful our spotlight is, when Sukeats and Hooi couldn't get their itchiness calmed and when back for the next successful session.

Not bad at all, all pictures were taken under the very dark silent night in the park.



We could move the light to whichever spots we wish to skate.


Although the generator is quite heavy, but still, we did enjoy the skating session.
And we will be doing this a lot for everybody.
