Our trip to Kinabalu National Park

My boys are facinated by trucks, goods container, fork lift and any big machine. They’ll get all excited when seeing one container that has lift in itself. They’ll notice cement trucks if we passed by one on the road. Then they’ll start asking lots of questions concerning that machine. Sometimes I get so frustrated in answering all their questions. But have to keep on answering them ‘cos I don’t want to put them down.

Of course when comes to books, they’ll love to read about trucks, planes and any big machine.

I used to buy trucks and cars for them as toys. And of course they love train too, like Thomas And Friends. Now that they are bigger, they no longer get all excited about seeing those big machines, except those rare ones like the tar machine that fills up the road with tar.

I’ve never bought them boat though. I wonder if they’ll like it.

When we were over at Sutera Harbor Marina, they were facinated by those beautiful boats. Of course they love to get on board of Logos Hope. Still, for this year round, I haven’t bring them on board of Logos yet.

I wonder what will they say when they saw the dinghy lift on certain boat. Which by the way is also call boat davits. Davits are actually make loading cargo easier. If you want to know more about davits, check out davits and pontoon boats in Yahoo.

I know they adore Transformers and Lego which by the way are originated from USA. It has certain assurance in buying US made products of course. But it also means higher cost. That’s why I was so happy to see Lego sold in Singapore in a relatively lower price!

Of course getting things from the States means brands, means better quality, but where can we get such luxury to enjoy that?

I’ll just stick to whatever that is offering in the market as for toys.

Okay, I haven’t been to Florida. But the Internet is really helpful. Just Google about Florida, you’ll get to know everything about it, from its climate, location, people, and even real estate.

It has subtropical and tropical climate, plus it has the longest coastline in the States. It is famous for its oranges production.

Subtropical and tropical climate means it won’t get too cold in Florida and you get to enjoy the sea with its longest coastline! Now, it sounds like a good place for me to stay other than the thread of hurricane. Just take a look at Map of Florida, you’ll see a narrow state with its long coastline.

I also like the design of homes in Stuart Florida. I also love those house plans shown online, just look at this one:

Isn’t it a nice little cottage? It has basement and 1st floor which has rooms for future extension. It also looks like a cool and airy house to live in. Most probably there are some already available in the market through Kolter Homes.

Okay, I’m starting to imagine myself staying there and going to the beach every weekend (at least). Probably taking up surfing lessons too. But let me learn how to swim properly first, ha!

Now, let’s see how I can go about it? Selling everything I have over here? Quit my job? Get a job in Florida? Hmm.. that means I need to be qualify for whatever that is available over in Florida. Are they looking for a professional librarian who knows Chinese?

Wait, what about my family? What about my two boys? And getting house there is such a major investment. What more it is in US dollars, which is triple of what we have here (Malaysia). If I really need to do that, I’ll really need to get a high pay job. Let’s just remain here on what I’ve been enjoying first.
