Usefulness of the tiny canon
The new tiny blue canon ~ PowerShot SD1100IS ~ its sleek, slim & handy a typically wide screen that I particularly like most! Sexy blue in color ... It goes right into my handbag without any bulk. Of course, this is not best camera that a 'frenzy'(hehe) photographer would need but its good enough for the time being! Not bad at its price too!!
Now that we do have a collection of Canon Cams + one Sony digital, Bernard is likely to buy another Canon or Nikon and like to get the more complicated (???) one, I think! I would say that I do need one personally ... like a digital SLR. I just love taking photographs. Would love to go to the (1) Botanical Garden (2) Julia Davis Park & (3) Kathryn Albertsons Park on Sunday ...to take pictures of the beautiful flowers for sure!
Never been to the Botanical Garden yet!
Passed by almost on a daily basis ... nice
central park. They organised Train Ride
and water paddle for leisure.
Kathryn Albertsons Park is also a birdwatcher's haven ....
if you're lucky you'll be able to see
antelopes as well!
a workout finally?
Its amazing … I’ve got time to post! I’m quite free! Some days I wish I could blog more and be able to share more often than I could. Today, I have accomplished what I really wanted to do. At noon, I was still thinking about shoes .. wanting to buy one … So I did go to Dillards and got myself a pair, was on sale! I was tempted to buy a couple of outfit as well … damn … spent quite a lot today!
I went to the Gym ~ which is just at the corner, just across the parking lot. Its a small gym with some simple equipment but a nice place for a workout! Sad to say … but this is the very first time that I have actually done a full hour of exercise!!! Running on the treadmill was just enough for me, pausing along the way … have long wanted to own a treadmill at home but not so sure yet …. if I do not have the ‘exercise mindset’, nothing happens! Next to the Gym is the swimming pool …. kids and grown up kids alike are happily splashing out there! That’s so much fun!
My neighbour must have thought that I am crazy …. he was playing his musical flute outside the corridor and smiling .. being a camera frenzy, I took picture of the pool area. Was not able to snap the gym as there are other residence there at that time and they’ll think I’m crazy taking a pic out of the place!!! Hopefully the people have not seen me taking this picture (below) !! ….
Friday food for thought
Had so much of Chinese groceries this morning! Fresh vegetables and pre-cooked delicacies come around every Friday at the local Asian market here in Boise. The little market was packed with hardly space to walk around the aisles, even a parking space in the area! More or less like the wet market in KK ….. I seldom go on Friday so I barely see lots of people around the mart, most of the time its quiet when we were there on other days. There aren’t much choice though … but so far the best. Lesley has particularly wanted to get some ’sticky rice noodles roll’ … delicious too!
