Trip to Los Angeles

25 Mar

My college friends came to Los Angeles for a visit last month. It has been a while since I met them, so I decided to go to LA to travel around together just for the weekend (Feb 5-7).

It was a great fun even though we just spent our days around the city (well, plus an excursion to Anaheim). This was my second time to LA, (the first one was just a transit?) and I had a chance to visit many places including: Grammy Museum, Walk of Fame, Beverly Hills, etc as you can see in the pictures.

Now, I have been procrastinating to upload these pictures, thanks to school’s workload & midterms.

As pictures explain better than words, I will just upload some of the interesting ones. However, the rest of the pictures can be viewed here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/davidasikin/sets/72157623272076741/

Day 1 – City Tour, Grammy Museum, Theaters, Walk of Fame, Beverly Hills, Lawry’s.

Christmas & New Year’s Eve 2009 in Singapore

29 Jan

It’s kind of late to write about Christmas and New Year now, but I had a great time with my family and I want to share some pictures I took from our trip.

We went to Singapore, departing from Jakarta, on December 25. We were actually on a tour to Myanmar but had intended to stop by in Singapore just to celebrate Christmas (and New Year’s Eve when we came back from Myanmar).

As you can see in the pictures, Jakarta Airport was decorated with flowers and banners to celebrate the joyful event.

After checking in, we went straight to the airline lounge to grab some refreshment and waited until our flight get called.

2009.12 From Dubai to Jakarta

26 Jan

It has been more than a month since I updated this blog. It is mostly because of I had an awesome Christmas holiday back in Jakarta.

Pittsburgh was cold as hell. Need. To. Migrate.

It was a total of 25 hours of flight (exclusive of the transit time). I went with Emirates so I had to go from Pittsburgh -> New York -> Dubai -> Jakarta.

This was my first time in Dubai and I didn’t think that the airport would be that nice. The duty free shops open 24 hours and you would see people from many different countries passing here and there.

Since the transit time took more than 6 hours, Emirates gave me a room. Not a super luxurious one, but it is actually nice. Very comfy bed.

Oh yeah, I also got my flight upgraded to Business class, baby! >=)
