Was trying to get some day view picture at Star Avenue before I go The Peak. Nah... I don't know these folks who taking pictures with "Just Married" couple. See what they are doing... Hm... I just know they are blocking me from taking pictures... :p

Trying to take day view pictures at Star Avenue... Hm... It is quite hard to get a good pictures today as too much haze... Seems like raining soon...
