The Blog was used to post some notes which been drafted during my travel. Like I said, to travel alone is quite unique and I like to share the experience with illustrations. I had visited 15 countries and more than 30 cities. On the road with me and have fun...

Name:

A tourist is someone who thinks of going home the moment they arrive ; a traveler seeks adventure from one part of the earth to another and slowly over periods of years. Are you a tourist or a traveler ?? I like to travel alone with my camera. To talk with the people who live in the individual city where I visited. Enjoy your life, make your friends...

Visit my family's friend in South Pasadena, LA

I paid a visit to my family's friend in South Pasadena, LA yesterday. In the morning, I took I-5 N , I-710 N, and I-10 toward Pasadena. To my surprise, their house is big and located inside the forest with huge garden/ back yard.














The 100-years house is " heritage of city " and they should keep it as an original style. I really like their house.















I take them to Irvine and look around the city. We find a very traditional Taiwanese restaurant which next to Ranch 99 and we had have a great time there, shopping in the on sale Japanese store especially .

Go golfing in Talega, San Clemente, California

I just finish a golfing with my friends in Talega golf club, San Clemente, CA. We do enjoy the sunny today. My score is 91 and I missed some drivers in the beginning...














Talega golf club was naminated " Best New Public Course " for 2001 by Golf Digest. I like the course and visited it very often.














This morning is cold here. Our tee off time is 8:08 am this morning and we are the first team. The starter postpone all the tee-off time for more than 1.5 hours and even they closed the approaching green/ driving range due to the cold weather. (less than 2 deg.C) Finally, it getting warm and team shot gun in each holes.















Great! The club can protect the grass and green due to the ice cover the leaves in the chill morning.
