Singapore
We visited Singapore after Cebu, Philippines. What a difference with the opulence. Here is the casino which has three sky scrapers and a boat on top!
The Skypark Casino
Universal Studios in Singapore. The Transformers ride and the rollercoaster with a corkscrew and a cobra roll were simply amazing.
States Trip
Some photos from our trip in the States earlier in the month.
The Washington Cathedral was closed when I was there last year due to their earthquake. In the centre of the purple circle is some rock from the moon.
Not a bad view from the top!

Preorder iPhone from Vodafone
I was supposed to get my iPhone on Friday and at 3.10 p.m. get an email from Vodafone saying that they have exciting news that my phone will now be delivered Saturday at the earliest – not really exciting given I was told it was Friday.
So Saturday morning the courier goes to the wrong house, so I email Vodafone about how I might get my phone. Their response was interesting whereas their wonderful solution was to make it my problem by giving me the tracking number so I can locate my Iphone and then organise to get it. Here is my response … wonder what they’ll reply with.
Hi Abby
Thanks for your email.
I am not sure why you have not addressed anything in my previous email and only restated about the tracking information, which I have had since Friday, and which has not helped me since, hence me emailing you. I am also not sure why you are telling there were 1400 deliveries on Friday. What does that have to do with me given I was not one of them?
Specifically, can you please tell me:
1. Why I was told I would have my iphone on Friday when this was never the case?
2. If I am actually going to get an iphone?
3. If I am to get an iphone, when I am going to get it (given I have now been told the wrong time twice)?
4. If I am getting one, and a time for delivery is planned, how I am going to avoid a “We Missed You” card while I am actually home?
I look forward to your responses.
Regards
Kyle

New Year’s Day 2013: Pensacola
Not a bad way to start the year really. This was the sunrise on New Year’s Day at the Gulf of Mexico.
Ferrari 458
I got to drive this Ferrari around the track, though they limit you to about 200 km/h. This Ferrari takes 3.2 sec to reach a 100 km/h – makes the Aston at 4.7 sec seem a little “sluggish.”
Linkin Park
I often get teased about my extensive pop music collection. Just to show I have eclectic taste, here is proof of something slightly heavier (though I wasn’t one of the black t-shirt highly-tattooed brigade).
Washington Redux I
I am in Washington at the moment and attended the Hershey Car Show. This is huge. Here is a selection of some of the cars.
Washington Redux II
Here are some of the famous monuments.
