|
Alhamdulillah, akhirnya perancangan yg dibuat sejak awal tahun 2008 telah membuahkan hasil..kami ke Orlando, Florida pada 26 Julai 2008 hingga 1 Ogos 2008..ni kira percutian yg paling besala utk tahun nih..(dr segi expanses dan juga jarak)
FYI, abang ada conference kat sana..present 3 papers in ACCI Conference..selain abg, ade 3 lg lecturers from Fak. Ekologi Manusia, UPM which were Prof. Dr. Jariah Masud (yg penah dtg tido rumah we ol thn lps). Dr. Laily PAim (dekan abg) and Dr. Sharifah yg turut sertai conference nih..kira reunionla kitorg kat sane.. alang2 dah ade conference, we took this golden opportunity to extend a few more days utk jln2 Florida.. yippeeeeeeee!!!!
Jimbo org yg bertanggungjwab anta we ol ke epot pg tu dlm kul 3lbh..thanx bro!jasamu dikenang saje amik flight subuh2 buta, so that blh sampai awal dan blhla manfaatkan hari sampai tu kan?kalo sampai pun dah lewat ptg/mlm, rugila..dah tak blh nak buat ape..kami bertolak dr Des Moines International Airport jam 5.00 pg ke Minneapolis/ St Paul Airport..transit kat sane dlm 1 jam lebih..from St Paul, our flight straight to Orlando Airport about 2 and a half hour trip..sampai dlm kul 11.04pg waktu tempatan..(cpt 1 jam dr Ames)
From epot, kami amik shuttle yg dah direserve mase booking air ticket..okla, takyah penat2, blh terus ke hotel..sampai Caribe Royal Hotel pun dah tghari, so terusla check-in..hotel ni mmgla besonye!taraf hotel 5 bintang kot..mmg 1 mlm mahal bayarannye..but since abg was one of the conference participant, so dptla rate murah..after masuk bilik n kemas2 ape yg patut, we ol ke Advantage Rental Car utk amik kete sewa (yg dah pun dibooked thru online..kat sini mmg mudah giler..everything's online and soooooooooo reliable) lps dpt kete (Hyundai Ascent-comel je ketenye) we ol ke Wal-mart utk beli grocerries (beras, onion, cooking oil, fruits) dan brg2 keperluan..lps tu, singgah kat Outlet kecik (sbb ade 3 kot outlet kat Orlando nih ) well, outlet kat US ni mcm biasala kan...sgl mcm brand ade..kalo kaki shopping tu mmg blh pokaila..tp kitorg cuci2 mate je since kat Iowa pun ade outlet gak..memandangkan aiman asyik merengek je (mesti sbb penat n ngantuk ) kitorg sekejap jela kat situ..then terus blk hotel yg tak jauh pun dr situ..yg bestnye hotal kami ni, sumenye dekat2, syiok!!!
On da way balik hotel, kitorg usha2la restoran halal..budak2 pun dah tertido..sampai bilik, i masak nasik then terus zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz (tak tahan siut, ngantuk tahap gaban dah..mane taknye mlm sebelum tu mmg tak tido pun..naik pusing kepalaku.. )
