Revisit : #5

REVISIT!!!


This is one more magnet that is revisited. It is a picture frame, a Disneyland Anaheim original. I bought it in 2006 during our family trip in November. Again, one of my favourites.


I have taken more pictures from differenet angles. Yes, it is a rubber magnetto, in case you are wondering. Kalau ada rezeki, teringin nak bawak anak-anak ke situ lagi. Izwan & I have been there twice, but a third time won't hurt, right?

Formula 1 Race


Monaco, albeit a small country in size, is rich with beauty. And rich with rich people. And rich, literally. You can find buildings with beautiful details:

You can admire the night lights:

And now it is also a venue for a grand prix race.


And in line with the Grand Prix F1 race, this magnet was created. After all, many spectators do wear caps when they watch the race.

The Top From Down Under

City of Melbourne, Victoria, Australia.


A gorgeous drop dead beauty. It's rubber magnetto. Again, one of my favourites. Melbourne original!






I can't believe my good luck when the kindhearted Yusof showed them to me. And what nmore when he told me that he bought it for the Bintulu Gang ladies. Thanks to my lady friends who gave me the first right of refusal. Whereby I refuse to refuse any of them magnets.











Izwan & I did travel to Melbourne, way back in 1998. Ten years before this magnetto became mine. Izwan was sent there for work, and I followed soon. My friend Boonli was residing in Melbourne then, so we had a tour guide!

This is one of the most colourful, brightest, cheerful fridge magnet in my collection. Do you like it?

Not Sleepless in Seattle




During his official assignment to Seattle last year, Izwan got me some fridge magnets featuring the city. And undoubtedly, this is one of my favourites!

It's rubber, it's bright, it's colourful, and it says what needs to be said. Truly truly awesome. Ahhh (*deep sigh with pleasure*)

I don't mean to be a jerk, but I have taken so many pictures of this precious magnetic rubber; I owe it to the time I spent making it pose for my camera, so here is five of the 15 pictures I took!

UPDATED: ON 25 MAY 2009, I DISCOVERED THAT I HAVE ACTUALLY DONE THIS MAGNETTO. #188.

Revisit: Firenze #97

Another one of the revisit series:
This gorgeous magnet was purchased by Onnair - in Italy, of course. It is the italian word for Florence, the capital city of the Italian region of Tuscany, Italy.

Revisit: Melbourne #180

Recently I have decided to take more pics of the fridge magnets I have posted before. Pictures from different angles. To give better illustration of how the fridge magnet actually look like. This is the first of the series. I'll have the word "Revisit" to indicate that it has been posted on this blog before.

Click here to see the old post. I took the picture below recently, to show the thickness of the item. It is really one cool stuff. The details are unbelievable. It looks like it is handpainted too.
