Hilton Garden Inn, Puchong

I spent 5 days and 4 nights at the Hilton Garden Inn, Puchong earlier this month. 

Everything about the hotel was excellent - clean room, fast check-in process, and yummy breakfast. However, the only downside was its location. Despite being supposed to be connected to a mall, the mall was virtually empty.

My room was on the 16th floor, Room No. 1621. 

The view from my room was facing the housing area.  Can you see the LRT Puchong Perdana Station, with the white roof in the middle?

My daily breakfast.




And on the morning of my last day there, I had a good swim in the pool on a rainy day.  It was so calming, with no one else sharing the pool.

Will I be staying at this hotel again? For personal trips - no, but for business trips, why not, when you only need a good place to sleep.

In My Garden | Pineapple #10

This pineapple is a pleasant surprise.

Last week, while taking down the laundry from our back, I saw this pineapple almost lying on the ground. It was all orange/yellow, subtly peeking out amidst the sugarcane leaves.

Since it would rain soon, I quickly grabbed my parang and chopped the pineapple's stem.

Look at how big this pineapple is.



Alright, this might not be the sweetest pineapple from my backyard, maybe due to lack of sunlight, it was covered by the sugarcane leaves.  Still, it is good to have fresh produce from my own little backyard garden.
