Finally, I've found the time to share my fantastic experience as a Giants Season Ticket Member (STM). To be honest, I was feeling a bit anxious about missing the opportunity to write about it with the season drawing to a close. I've been a Giants fan

It seems to have become my annual tradition to gripe about each year's WWDC. In fact, I realized I had started the last year's post with almost the same sentiment. When I watched the first half of this year's keynote, I was nearly ready

My next book was "The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny, and Murder" by David Grann. Lately, I've developed a routine of visiting Barnes & Noble while waiting for my daughter's art lesson. This book, which was named the 2023 B&N Author

We booked a Luau show at my hotel, "Legends of Hawaii Luau," for the last night. A luau is a traditional Hawaiian party or feast, and many places host one. My favorite Luau experience was at the Hale Koa Hotel (in Oahu) in 2008 when Glen Medeiros hosted

Trying great local food and restaurants is one of the highlights of a family trip. We tried several local cuisines, and each place was worth mentioning. In Hawaii, the general advice is to "start early." The day begins early across the islands, not just in National Parks. Many

National Parks have been the main inspiration behind our recent family trips, so we couldn't pass up visiting the Hawaiian Volcanoes National Park. While I still don't understand why Mauna Kea isn't designated as a National Park, while this place is - there must

The highlight of our Hawaii trip was visiting Mauna Kea, the tallest mountain in Hawaii, with a peak of 13,803 feet (4,207 meters), making it the highest point I've ever been to in my life. Planning this part of the trip was challenging, particularly when it

Exploring the beautiful beaches should be an essential activity in Hawaii. The Big Island boasts a variety of stunning beaches, each with its unique charm. What impressed me most was the excellent preservation of these beaches. However, this realization was bittersweet, as it might underscore the significant role that money

During my daughter's last spring break, we visited Hawaii. Which island? Hawaii. I was curious why Big Island has the name while other islands have more Hawaiian(?) names like Ohau or Maui. It turns out that “Hawaii” is its actual name, and Americans simply started calling it the

As a dedicated Giants fan (you know), I was preparing to share my thrilling experiences from my season ticket membership in my next post. However, all those memories paled in comparison when I witnessed the heart-wrenching moment of JH Lee collapsing after hitting the wall. JH is going to have

Last month, I took a business trip to our Seattle office. It was a Sunday afternoon flight, so I found myself with some free time in the evening. Since Downtown Seattle is already quite familiar to me (and many places were closed in the evening), I opted to do something

Finally, it is baseball season again. The Giants bolstered more arsenals right before the season's start. As a Giants 2024 season ticket holder, I found myself at the ballpark on both Sunday (with my family) and Monday (alone). There's something magical about being there, but this
