Love All Over New York

New York is a wonderful city. I think Izwan had quite a good time during his work assignment there last year. Walks at Central Park etc.
*grins at a personal joke*
.
He brought home quite a number of fridge magnets.
.
.
I am always amazed with beautiful NY pictures, esp night time snapshots.

But this one, is totally mine and I love it!

Are U A ManU Fan?

Are you a fan of Manchester United? I am not. But when Naza offerred me fridge magnets from the team's original merchandise lineup, I said 'aye'.
e
There is a total of 9 frige magnets in this one. And no, I am not going to be all noble and deem it as just ONE fridge magnet. After all, I paid good money for this. So, 9 it is.

Fresh Fish, Anyone?


.
One can get fresh fish from Pike Market Place. But one gotta be in Seattle. Me, well, a fridge magnet depicting the market is enough to make me a happy woman!
.


It was opened in 1907 (as one can read from the pig picture on the magnet) and they had quite a celebration for its 100th anniversary.

Rocking Bangkok Real Hard

.
Thanks to GH, I am now the proud owner of this Hard Rock Cafe Bangkok fridge magnet. I noted that it is a limited edition.
.


Story is like this - we are all now crazy ga-ga over HRC fridge magnets and trying our best to expand our collection. GH has a friend who went there recently and she ordered for the 4 of us: herself, me, Sha & Wood.
.


Isn't it cool? So, I am deeming that GH got this for me, although through a lady by the name of Salizawati.

Penny Is Lucky

Izwan got this lucky penny fridge magnet in San Francisco. It says "I spent time on Alcatraz". Can u imagine if he had taken his SLR to San Francisco? I bet the pictures are going to be far better than the ones he took; and those are already in the "good pictures" category.

This is one of the fridge magnets Imran allowed me to buy off him; pursuant to my FB message to him since he announced that he was going travelling.

Snow In London


.
Ah.. this is what I don't like about procrastinating doing this blog.
I forget. I had to check and re-check as to the origin of this one.
.
Lucky thing I manage to differentiate between this and the other quarter globes that I have. This is the one I bought from Nazatul. It cost me RM28. A friend who resides in London commented that it is pricey since it is only one and a half pound at a souvenir shop. Sheesh. But well, I wanted it, and I got it.
But the thrill of it is not as good as getting it from a friend, or a pesan-memesan system through someone who goes overseas.

Rocking Hard, Babe

.
.
This is one of the fridge magnets that I had bought online. Well, not really. Thing is, I have bought magnettos from this lady Naza, who resides in the UK. Post that time, I thought that purchasing them online doesn't give me the same thrill I yearn. But when she contacted me and said she was travelling to Amsterdam and if I'd like a HRC from there, I jumped at the offer. Of course!
.
And so, a few months later, this one become mine.
.
This are the ones which Naza sent to me. I'll blog about London soon.
