This is the first time I buy goods from eBay. It really took me a while to understand and figure out how the eBay system works and also the payment. Thanks to friend of mine for his patient explanation regarding the eBay I bought an USB PCMCIA card and Penpower Minicard hand writing input device for chinese and other characters. Why USB PC card? The only USB port on my poor little Dell Inspiron 4000 is dying. Sometimes it works, sometimes not. You can imagine how annoyance I have with this condition.

After having my breakfast, I continued my walking tour. I reached at the St. Stephen’s Cathedral, most eminent Gothic edifice in Austria. It is beautiful and amazing. Along the way, I have taken some photos. In that area, I discovered a building is totally conflict to other buildings surround it. It is a modern design building; however buildings next to it were mostly built in the 19th century. Look at the photos you will understand better. After snapped some photos there I have to return to the City Airport Train station. It was a bit sad but I have to. If not, I will miss my connecting flight to Finland. This does not sound good to me. I believe I will visit Vienna again some day in future.

When I’m on my way to BioCity from Student Village this morning, the visibility is really low but nice. It is so foggy. I have taken a couple of photos; and I wish I can share it with all of you.

Fog is a cloud in contact with the ground. Fog differs from other clouds only in that fog touches the surface of the Earth. The same cloud that is not fog on lower ground may be fog where it contacts higher ground such as hilltops or mountain ridges.Most types of fog form when the relative humidity reaches 100% at ground-level. Fog can form suddenly, and can dissipate just as rapidly, depending on what side of the dewpoint the temperature is on.(source: Wikipedia)

Finally I have finished the business I need to do. Although there were some tiny things I need to follow up but it is okay. Yes, I have to return to Turku, Finland. In my original plan I will stay in Malaysia for about three weeks time only. However, due to certain reasons I can’t finish that business in short period. I have to postpone my return date. But, the return air ticket from Malaysia to Finland was fully booked from June until end of August because of World Cup 2006. I have no choice but to queue on waiting list. Finally, I managed to secure a seat on the end of June to return to Finland.

I like the weather at Cameron Highland, +20°C but not my girlfriend.She said a bit cold to her. We have our dinner at one of the shops in Tanah Rata town, administrative town of Cameron Highlands. Both of us were agreed that the dinner we have was not impressive. After dinner, we walked to pasar malam (night market) nearby. Again, we saw a lot of strawberries, of course fresh vegetables too. I still remember during my school time, my geography teacher used to tell me Cameron Highlands is the place produce a lot of vegetables. After a short walk, we drove back to the resort. Actually I was tired after drove all the way from Penang to Cameron Highlands especially journey to Strawberry Park resort.
