Bungee Jumping

Honestly, I'm not sure where the highest bungee jumping point is anymore since so many places claim they are so. 

I still get excited, though, every time I think about it :)

Miss Ji Hyo in Macau. Three cheers for Running Man!


And this one..... LOL

There most common place to bungee jump in KL is Sunway Lagoon. They used to have it at KL Tower but the tower became more popular for base jumping (which is equally awesome). I heard there are plenty in other states.. wonder if those are any good..

Google Maps Treasure Mode

To all the Google Maps lovers out there, here are more reasons to love this timeless invention by the Google team:


Despite it originally being an April Fools prank, its actually a really awesome interface to explore Google Maps with. 

Here is what it looks like zoomed out 


And here it is zoomed in 


And when you switch to Street View (the icon is replaced with a telescope)

Waikiki Beach, Honolulu

The Eiffel Tower

And finally, a little Easter egg I found from another source, but actually works when you try it out... 

Check out the first yellow box in the left sidebar :)

I thank you, Google, for your little treasures which I will always love x
