From the NASA Centre in Houston

This is a fridge magnet.
It is a mini NASA rocket that the American sends to 'outerspace'.
Enjoy the pictures.
I certainly enjoyed taking them.

Complete with the three giant engines.

And the blunt nose.

My old friend from school, Daniel, works for a ship and travels. And he is so kind to get me these fridge magnets when he was in New Orleans.

.

This is a pretty rubber fridge magnet. My friend Jane would've loved this one. But I love it too!

Remember that tune? I learned it in school, over 30 years ago. Heh. Izwan bought this farmers market when he was in Seattle. A beautiful porcelain magnet, complete with red ribbon with gold band.

If you think you have seen this in my blog, you are 60% right.

Looks like my other man-in-gondola magnet.

My earlier entry Cinema Italiano, fridge magnet #443.

Similar, but not the same.

This one was a gift from Mrs Wood; my kind hearted fellow addicted to fridge magnet kaki.

Black Pepper San Francisco Crab

.

.

Oh my oh my.

.

I remember my reaction when I first looked at it.

Jaw dropped, picked it up to the floor; re-attached to face.

This one is awesome.

I repeat: awesome.

With all the detailing. It is a darn pretty crab, I tell ya. Available only in San Francisco. At the Fisherman's Wharf. You know, place where you can smell all the sealions from 3 miles away. Heh. Not that I've been there.

And it can open bottles as well.

Hurrah! It's Harrah!

.

It cost Izwan USD6 for this Harrah's Las Vegas Hotel & Casino and it is now priceless. During his trip last moth, he had asked what type of fridge magnets I want; since I have quite a bit from Las Vegas already (but of course la kan... since taht is sort of his "kampung" ekekeke). So apart from the usual souvenir magnets and Hard Rock Cafe for me and my 3 friends (Sha, GH & Wood), I asked him to get me originals from the casino hotels at the Las Vegas strip.

.

And my beloved husband did it. God bless him (now I sound like Sookie Stackhouse in the books). This is one of them. It is a bottle opener and he got it from the hotel souvenir shop.

Cinema Italiano

.
.
Our neighbour Shazwim went for a two (or was it 3?) months training in Dublin. He bot us this. I think his flight made a stop in Italy but I can't say for sure. Probably he and his family spent time there. And I am definitely not complaining!



This is similar to what Wood gave me; but Wood's magnet is with a bit of colour.
