I am seated down back home now, only to able to go through the photographs I’ve taken over the past 1 month and a half over few cities I’ve visited.
I’ll say that the travel threw my normal routine totally out of the window, and I am still trying to settle down after this stint of travel. This is my first, and I would like this to continue. It’s hard work, and counter productive sometimes – I really love the level of satisfaction I get from doing what I do.
The wedding photographs will appear on my blog when they are ready, I am stoked!!! I’ve got some nice location shot taken with my camera and my iphones, and I would like to share these here:
On the road to La Jolla in San Diego. We were heading to the beach.

I bumped into Convoy Sushi from Google maps when I stood outside the hotel on my iphone. 20 minutes on foot – walkable. Considering that I needed to walk a little for exercise. I haven’t been really been exercising since I was in the states.
Fast forward 2 days, I return to my fellow friend. Hey, they recognize me from my previous visit. ;). I brought my camera out tonight. I haven’t been shooting since I was nursing my cold in room.
I call him Sai, my bestest friend.
Complimentary miso soup. Nice warm soup for weather like this.
The sushi bar, where the knife savvy sushi chef behind the bar – Abel. Well, not seen in this photo, I’ve got video where he fire up our Fire Roll.
Miso soupppppslurrrppsss
We ordered sushi combo from the appetizer menu to share. Fresh, and yummy :)
I saw Abel preparing the Fire Roll from their Special Roll menu. I wanted it the first time I was there, but I change the order cos I couldn’t finish it. It’s spicy. Tempura asparagus, spicy crab, cucumber, topped with spicy saurce and habanero tobiko. A challenge for a Malaysian who loves spicy food, but we Malaysian didn’t disappoint . It’s yummy :)
This is Tiger roll. The stripes on the salmon created the tiger stripes. Pretty. Shrimp tempura, cucumber, crab, fresh salmon, black tobiko. The shrimp give the cruncy texture to it.
We ordered dessert. Abel came out from the kitchen and he served us with this dish. He said, he prepared the dessert already – complimentary before we ordered our ice cream. Nice…. Great way to end our dinner. Banana fritters with green tea ice cream.
If I stay here, I’ll make them my favorite restaurant. After all, I love Japanese food. :)
Literally. How amazing is that? We were treated with a magnificent view of Bay Bridge when the American celebrated their Fleet week. It was all unplanned, and on the way back home when the groom say to stop by this place to view san francisco night lights.
Pau Min, Yean Peng are the nicest people one can meet, we had the blast in SF. Such wonderful host, really took care of me well. It was a good trip.
3 funny faces with the golden gate visible at the background. This was taken sometime about 7ish, where not much available light left.
They are lovely too.
… and some traveling pictures for myself that I was there….. having a blast.
Craig was a good pal of Pau Min & Yean Peng. Flew in from LA to be with them for the photoshoot. Very very smart dude. I can ask him anything and he has all the answer in the world.
Bubbly too!
No, he’s not part of the plan and shoot, but I gave him a dollar.
SF is a beautiful city that I can immediately fall in love with. Huge thank you for both Pau Min & Yean Peng for being such a wonderful host. Your hospitality was wonderful, and I don’t even know if I am able to host myself the way you host me!
