Malaysia shouldn't complain, since I didn't represent the country. I represented BC, so it's BC's "loss", wakakakaka. Just got back home, will post more pics on Paris in the morning/afternoon.
All The Things French ..... Let's skirt outside the badminton competition and go onwards to see France as it is. It is really a City you could explore on foot, if you have the drive for it. Here are some of the attractions. View of the Seine and the Bir Hakeem Metro Station - closest to Eiffel Tower [ The Garden of Flowers just in front of Eiffel Tower
The Eiffel Tower ..... ..... itself is a truly majestic sight. Not until you come really close to it, do you know how huge this imposing structure is. Just look at the size of the pillar alone, this is the North Pillar, and a sizeable crowd is already mingling 90 minutes before the doors are opened. The centre of attraction of Champ De Mars Garden Some sort of Peace Monument - with Eiffel Tour in the background Views of the Ecole Militaire, the Military Academy that produced Napoleon. Guy on the horse is General Joffre of French World War 1 fame. Velib bikes, handy to use for a tour of the Champ de Mars area.
The Latin Quartier ...... ..... is one of my favourite haunts for Halal Food. There are so many varieties of food here, even an Indonesian Restaurant close by. But the streets are quite narrow. French Building Architecture, heavy Latin influence Another reason for hauting the Latin Quartier is because of this, the biggest Mosque in France. The Mosque de Paris. It has a decent cafe inside the compounds.
Time To Go Home Yes, finally our time is up and I had to surrender the "title". After a year's worth of "hardcore training", fastdrop and I had to miss this. ..... :crying: Both of us went home on Monday evening. I had a pretty long stopover at Dubai, and to "drown my sorrows", did quite a bit of fastdrop-style shopping at the Airport. Final pictures ...... Met Yannick Noah at the train station, apparently he has become a rock star ..... The RER Train that brought me to CDG Dubai Airport, an Oasis of Calm .... With 3 kms of shopping area. Shopping is hungry work, had pre-dawn meal here And if you shop enough, you are entitled to a 1 in 1000 chance to win this Maybach convertible ...... does not include shipping and taxes.
But Hey ...... ...... there's always next year at the Wembley Arena. Yup, Yonex still dominates sponsorship, even if Li Ning dominates the title victories next year. So take heed of this message ...... especially for the guy doing the smashing You guys might find me at Section N7, Row J, Seat 76.
agreed! especially when you're standing under the structure... love the view of the eiffel tower at night omg you bought advance tickets
1 EURO per day, as long as you return the bike within 30 minutes. Quite easy actually, if you want to use it longer than 30 minutes, just swap bikes at the stations every 30 minutes. The only hard thing is to spot the location of the other bike stations. You have to check the bike condition though, quite a few have been abused / vandalized. Helmet is optional, you can bring your own. Ohh, obviously would need some "Warm up Tournaments" to prepare ....... Doesn't hurt to buy in advance. If I am not, err, well prepared for the tournament, could always sell 'em. The tickets are quite a bit more expensive than in France. Plus they are running afternoon/evening session tickets for quarterfinals and semifinals days. So the best option is to purchase season tickets, for you it's only slightly under SGD250 including postage via FedEx.
Look at the face properly again.. I hope u can identify him.. after all u were present at the WC the whole week last week!
