Breakfast in Mercure Hotel



在这里,我可以享受很多美味的食物。这里早餐的选择比Intercity Hotel的还多。 虽然,每天的食物都一样。  所以,今天吃bacon and ham, 明天吃sliced cake,后天吃fruit salad,我也不觉得腻。


他们还有现榨的橙汁。厨师已经把橙切好放在桌子上,我们只要把橙放在特别的机器上,把盖子放下,就会有新鲜的橙汁了。方便又新鲜。


而且,这里还有露天的餐厅。喜欢的人可以把早餐拿去外面吃。也许是初春,天气还蛮冷的,所以,那些热爱阳光的红毛人都选择在室内享用早餐了。


我还蛮喜欢这里的用餐环境的。幽静又丰富。

我累了

我想,我又跌入婚姻的低潮期。

有时候,真的很不想回家。因为,回家也是没有沟通,个人看个人的电脑。我们之间完全没有交集。

我不懂这样的婚姻有什么价值。

也许,我们的婚姻真的有点可悲。

我想,我真的需要时间再找回以往的热情。

我真的累了。

My room @ Mercure Hotel Erfurt Altstadt

This time, my colleague in Erfurt has booked a 4 star hotel for me in Erfurt.  I was a little bit surprised when i saw the email from her.  The hotel is quite near to the Anger Tram Station - it's only about 2 minutes walk.

When checked in the hotel, i got another surprise that the room rate actually consists of free wi-fi.  This means, i can actually call my sweet family everyday free via viber.  How touched i was.

My room is located at the 1st floor with number 114.  It's a non smoking room.  Too bad the minibar is not free but the room size is bigger comparing to the hotel that i have in Frankfurt before. 


A little bit surprised to see my name on the greeting board in the TV.  How sweet the hotel is.


My room is facing the old church just behind the Anger 1 shopping mall.  I have really a great view from my room.  The weather is just nice to have the window open and let cold wind blowing in.  What a wonderful spring time!

Dinner @ Hauszum Naumburgischen Keller

My first dinner at Erfurt is at Schweineschnitzel (e.k.a Pork Chop) and a glass of red wine (Meriot rot).



The pork chop looks oily but it is not.  Really soft and delilcious.  This is the first time i ever eat such a nice pork chop.  I really enjoy it.

While i am enjoying the dinner at the restaurant, there comes a group of Chinese Tourists.  One of the lady looks likes me.  I have a picture with her but that is in her camera.  I am hoping to get her email when she back to China 12 days later.  So probably, i can post it up here when i back to Kuching next week.

Walking at Frankfurt

After breakfast, i spent a few hours walking on the street. 



Not far away from the Frankfurt main station, i found a street with many sex shops.  Of course, this is really a small case compares to the one at Amsterdan.   But still, a little bit strange and uncomfortable when i passby the street.  Am i too conservative?


Then, i walk longer, i saw this interesting bank with special decoration surrounding the building.  I sit there few minutes just for enjoying the peaceful moment.



After taking few photos of the church at the back of the DB bank, i walked back to my hotel for check out.


Then, i had a Udong Noodle at Korea stall in Frankfurt main station.  It cost me about EURO 5.90 for this bowl of noodle.  Not really fancy but the hot soup really keeps me warm.

Then, I sat down with the book for Seoul visiting and waited for another 1 1/2 hour for catching up the train to Erfut at 13.19pm.

Breakfast in Hotel Excelsior

6am (17.04.11) , i woke up and had a facetalk with hubby and son. 

Then, i went downstair to have breakfast. 


There are variety of choices and i found Cha Sio Bao (pork bun) on the table.  Yeah!  You didn't see wrong, they served Cha Sio Bao in the restaurant.  Yahoo!!!  You guess what, i ate 2 buns!


I think i must be missing home a lot.  :)

After breakfast i had some fruits.  As usual, the kiwi and banana.  :)

Hotel Excelsior Frankfurt

I am really appreciate that my company's counterpart helped me book this hotel for my 1 day stay in Frankfurt.  It is so close to Frankfurt main station and yet the service is really good.

After a long hour flight from Kuching to Frankfurt (via SG), i reached Frankfurt Airport at 2.25am 17.4.11 (Kuching time).  Germany time is 6 hours later than Kuching time.  Not very sure if Hubby and son has slept, i decided to only text him when i reached the hotel.

So, after buying S-Bahn ticket at EURO3.90, i took the train from Frankfurt airport to Frankfurt main station.  I made a big mistake during the journey - i dropped off at wrong station (the usual mistake i made when i travel along Germany because i really don't understand German).  This mistake made me waiting for another 15 minutes alone in the station.  Luckily the weather not that cold but that's really scary because the whole area was so quiet and nobody.  Thanks god that hubby not yet slept during that hour and with his sexy voice, i really feel calm (i don't dare to tell him this incident - scare that he will scold me later).

15 minutes later, the train reached and this time i waited and listened carefully.  Finally, i reached the station safely.  

Then, i asked people there the direction of Hotel Excelsior and they told me that it's on the right side of the station (thanks to the 2 young men for your help but sorry i don't have small change for you).  About 2 minutes walking distance, i saw this signboard and Hotel Excelsior is just opposite the train station.

After checking in, i went to my room - 320.  The room is pretty small but yet enough for me.  The free minibar and wifi really fancy me a lot.  They also provide a piece of chocolate which will make you sleep better.  Wow!  Doesn't it sound very touched?






I really enjoy they stay here.

Touched down to frankfurt

Have been sitting more than 14 hours flight from Kuching to frankfurt via Singapore. I have not sleep for almost 24 hours.

I am extremely tired. Now eating the biscuit that I took down from the airplane. Just finish a long call with hubby. Pity him who worry me for whole day.

I should praise the hotel that I am staying now very much. They provided free minibar and wifi. So amazing.

I am sure that I will wake up tomorrow and play the net and upload some photos here.

Now, just let me finish my biscuit and take some hot shower and have a good sleep first. Goodnight

最近麻烦事不少

最近,心情有点差。 不为什么,就因为麻烦事越来越多。


上个月底,匆匆忙忙的飞去星加坡,因为要探望在星加坡动手术的外公。看着他虚弱的身体,已不记得很多东西时流不尽的泪水,心理满是惆怅。曾几何时,那永远用智慧和耐力勇敢生活的大树就那么不经意的倒下来了。我不时在想除了不定时探望,我还能为他再做些什么?我愁!


工作上有忙不尽的工程。每每一个project还没完成,另一个就接踵而来。最讨厌的是明明做工的人是我,可是拿功劳的却是别人。偏偏我又不能反驳,因为人家的地位比我高。


这个周末,我又得搭上去德国的飞机公干去了。这对我已经是很普通的行程了,没什么雀耀。我想有得开心的也许就是可以在回程的时候drop by星加坡看一看老朋友吧?!


可是现在,我反而有点不想去了。因为明天王爷要开刀。听医生说是背部的软骨碎了,要用laser把它连回去。这一个手术不晓得有没有危险,也不知道王爷需要多久的时间才可以复原。如果我不在,谁能够照顾这一大一小呢?


再来,就是昂贵的医药费的问题了。保险公司说只能帮我还90%,算算我还要付差不多一千大洋。真的不晓得要去哪里找这笔钱出来。


车子最近又出问题。今天下午拿去修,要价300大洋。听mechanic说我的轮胎花不行了,又要厚着脸皮向爸爸要免费的轮胎了。汽油又起价,一个礼拜少说也要100大洋的油钱。老公现在动手术,没人可以帮我载小孩,不晓得这一个月的车油会不会超标。


儿子的下门牙,也开始要掉了。我已经可以看到新牙了。这本是好事,可是却发生在这节骨眼上。我真的腾不出时间带他去看医生。只能千交代万交代他可别把牙齿吞下去,要记得把牙齿收起来给我好把它留下来做纪念。也希望他的门牙会长得整整齐齐的。


我真的希望我可以有多两只手,两只脚,一个脑和一个躯干可以分身。我不晓得我可不可以撑下去,只希望我自己不要病倒就好了。神啊!帮帮我吧!

好清香酒楼

大年初二的午餐,我们来到好清香酒楼。  看到酒楼里的人客还不少,就知道这一餐应该味道还不错。Lunch on 2nd day of Chinese New year, we went to HaoQinXiang Restaurant. I think the meal will taste good when see the restaurant is crowded


第一道:看似肉圆的东东。  外层包的是糯米团,里面是肉(吃不出是不是猪肉)还有土豆。不是很喜欢它的味道。First dish: Meatballs. Outer is glutinous rice, inner is meat (not sure if it is pork ) and peanut. Not really like the taste.



第二道: 薄饼。外层炸得酥脆,里头包的馅没什么味道。也许是天气冷的关系,吃的时候有点冷。不习惯吃冷掉的炸食。吃了一颗就没再吃了。2nd Dish:  Poh pia. Outer layer is crispy fried, the inner part not really taste anything. Maybe because of the cold weather the food is not warm.  Not really used to it, so stop after one bite.



第三道:酒香蒸虾。我一路来就喜欢吃海鲜。这一道酒香够醇,一连吃了好几口饭呢。The third dish: wine steamed prawn. All the while, i like seafood very much.   I can smell the alcohol when i eat the prawn. I like it. 



第四道: 猪脚。瘦肉好吃,肥肉就谢谢了。Forth Dish: Pork.  The lean meat is great. 



第五道:鱼丸汤。第一次吃到腥味很重的鱼丸汤。看一看只有几根葱去味,那怎么行呀?!所以,只喝了一碗。Fifth Dish: Fish ball soup. This is the first time i have so heavy smelly fish ball soup. So, I only drink one bowl of soup.



第六道: 酸甜鱼。一样是冷的,所以没人动。Sixth Dish: sweet and sour fish. It is not warm, so no one taste it.



第七道:米粉汤。没吃,因为啃饭啃饱了。Seventh Dish: Beehoon soup. Well, i have enough of rice, so, i don't try it out. 



第八道:鸡蛋豆腐。小孩子们爱死了。我觉得味道淡了一些,不过小孩子们就别吃那么咸了。Eighth Dish: egg tofu. Kids love it because it is not that salty.


总的来说,这一餐,还不错。只是有些味道我不习惯。In overall, the meal not bad. I just not used to flavor.
