When we arrived Malaysia, its near noon, and our friends took luggage to their house, and we took bus and transfer train to their home, the train station is very big, we almost loss our way, they have 2 different way to get tickets, I think its like a MRT and train station, but queue in wrng way, so we couldn’t bought the tickets, finally we find the way to buy ticket. When we arrived their house, we took a shower, its very strang for us, coz there is no hot water in their house, he need boil water for us. Then we go to have some “lunch-dinner” its really nice, we saw a long piece of Scallion Pancake, they cal “lotijanie” I am not sure how to spell, but its really good. At night we ate “hong kong style food”, it is also very nice although the please its not look very clean, they took the food in a small dining car, and we can choose which food we want. It’s a nice restaurant. But I forget the name, coz its our friend took us to there.

We took late night bus to Gatewick airport, there is a rule that we can only took one luggage into airplane, but we have too much luggage. And all luggage is overweight. And the airplane was in the morning, so we are planning to stay in airport whole night packed our luggage. We through a lot of things that we don’t need, besides we also put everything on the floor, it seems very funny, some tourism see us like a “funny things” embarrassing…….after package it still overweight, my luggage its about 27 kg, tina’s 26kg, lala’s 29kg. but QUTAR is very nice, they allow us overweight a little bit. Then we went to Malaysia, we transfer in a Arabic country, I think DuhaßI couldn’t remember name, and than we fly to Malaysia…….

Nov 19 Mon 2007 11:56 11/5 Geneva-Bern
We took the first boat go to Switzerland. We have to pay although we have swiss pass. Because there is no discount in the first boat. The guest hostel backpacker is really nice place. They are very friendly and didn’t charge us anything. So we start our trip fpr today, this first place, we went to Bern, we went to a famous one church, we don’t know the name of this church, in Chinese they call it “step church” I am not sure the name ha. It seems “muster”. It seems UK’s church, but UK is bigger than this one. Then we went to history museum, its close on Monday. So we went to Einstein museum, this is a very small museum. Its full of his things, he live here when he was young, we saw a video to talk about his life, in this video I knew he merry twice. The secondary merry is his cousin. He have study in Zurich university. After that , we went to Geneva, this city is famous in union nations, it’s a neutral country. They don’t want to join UN before, at 2002, the citizen vote, and most of them agree to join UN, then they join UN. We visit inside, we can not visit individual, only with tour, so we spent 8CHF to join this tour. We saw many gifts from many countries. One gift is from China, its very special painting, when you look this painting in different view. You will fell that the door always in front of you. For the swizerland, this is a very special country, there have 3 major language- French German and Italy, I am curious that how can they choose prime minister, and if the prime minister talking, what’s language does he talk? Then we went around the Geneva garden, church. And, we back to Basel. On the way we back to Basel, we met an artist, she is really nice, she gave us a swiss coin, 5p, she told me this is for lucky. She live in Basel, she told me she live alone, if we wonna go Basel, we can visit her. We live in YMCA, it’s a really nice hostel, they gave us slipper. We can took it back.

Nov 19 Mon 2007 11:53 11/4 Lausanne
this is the capital city of Olympus. There are a famous castle nearby. This castle is in Montreux, the name of this castle is Château de Chillon. A English poet wrote a poem to describe the minister of this castle for freedom. This English poet is Byron, he put his name on the wall in basement. This castle is top 10 castle of the world. Its not as beautiful as Edinburgh castle, however its nearby the Geneva river, its really beautiful/ we went there around 2.00. We were planning to stay there for just half a hour, it has many things we can have a look, therefore we stay there for whole afternoon. After that we went to Olympus museum, the ticket here is very special. Each tickets has different symbolize in different year. We knew much history about Olympus and saw much competition there, some people they wear very strange in the Olympus before. I saw the tennis competition, the women will long skirt during the competition. Its so funny. Olympus is hold for peace. We only spent 1 hour, because we arrived very late and it close on 18.00. This is the 6th day we stay here, we though we don’t have too much time to take the boat in the morning. So we decided to take the boat at night, we check the schedulable, there are many boat around the river until 10.00. this is the beginning of our French trip. We don’t know the other side of river is French, so when we arrived there, we saw a casino. We thought that’s the one we saw in the afternoon in Montreux. We are very happy, and we wonna take the train to back to our hostel. We thought its easlier way, so we get off the boat. When we walk around the street we recognized this is different place with montreux. We ask people how to go to train station. However, most of them cannot speak English. We felt very strange. Finally, we found the train station. But the train is very strange, unlike swiss train, its blue colour, I told lala maybe we arrived the French, I think its just a kidding, but but but, when we meet the train station’s staff how to go to lausamme. He told us swimming, haha, and then we ask he where is here, he told us”French”, oh my god!! We went to another country by accident. Wow, its amazing experience we took the boat to another country. (only 30 minutes) so we took many picture here, and ask the staff how to go back to boat station. Then hen we arrived the boat station, the time shows the next boat is on 20.45, when the time coming, there is no boat same, we start to nervous. Suddenly, we recognized its Sunday today. The latest boat is that we took the one, oh my god, we have to stay French for a night. We don’t have Europe money. And we don’t have place to sleep. We will stay in this boat station whole night. Its only 21.00. lala told me its better way to go to casino, because its safe. Or we can go to police office and ask them to took us back to swiss. But we cannot find any police in this small town-evian-les-bains. We went to restaurant to ask them, but they don’t have any idea to help us, they just told me to book a hotel. But lala and I don’t want spent more money. Then we went to casino, its also a very strange place. After discuss to lala, we decided to go back to train station. We though its safe than boat station. So we back to there, luckly, the staff who just told us this is French. He is on duty that night. He is really very kind. He found a place that we can sleep whole night. The place is like a rest room. Its very safety and warm. Although there is no bed. We stay in French train station whole night!!

Nov 19 Mon 2007 11:47 11/1 Luzern-Bern
we wake up very earlier, when we arrived the Luzern, its about 8.30, most shop are closed. So we took a leaflet and then we read some information about Luzern and make a plan to go around the city centre. At beginning, we went to Lowendenkmal, its near Gletschergarten, this is to memorized the French war, the solider die in this war. A poem said that this is the saddest sculpture in the world. There is a sword in the lion. However in the winter the Gletschergarten is open on 10.00, we arrived there is abput 9.20, therefore we decided to go to another famous mountain Pilatus. This is the famous one that there have a slope train “48”, and it has fire dragon in the mountain. The cable car was close at that day, the only way to go to mountain is by train. By the way, the information centre women, she is very kindly, she explain a lot of information in this mountain and she also show us some video in the mountain, she told us if we climb the mountain, we have to say hello to her, she will see us in the information centre. We spent about 30 minutes in the mountain. There have many walking way, we choose the shortest one, its about 10 minutes walk. Its really beautiful, the weather is very nice, you will feel you live up in cloud. The we went to Luzern city centre to see the Gletschergarten museum, its free for us, because we have swiss pass. Its ice age museum, this park is really fantastic. Even we don’t know too much about that. one exhibition room is very interesting. There are a lot of mirror inside. it’s a maze. When I enter, I lose way, and I collide the mirror. I need to put my hand in front of me, otherwise I will collide again, its very fanny. We also went city wall and very beautiful bridge. We cannot took the latest boat in Luzern, its close on 16.20, so we went to Bern, Bern is the capital city in Switzerland. We never notices that Bern is bustling as London, people seems very busy in this city. They walk very fast, and the shop close very late, we are very exciting, so we planning to come here again. Because its really a nice shopping centre. We leave here on 8.00.
