Le Meridien Al-Khobar

First workshop at the east coast across the peninsular.

Fly Saudi Arabian Airlines SV1118 from Jeddah to Dammam, where Saudi Aramco and King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals (KFUPM) are located.

We were picked up by Faysal, public relations from KFUPM and travelled to Le Meridien hotel. Received an upgrade to a 3-room villa by luck.

Had a seafood meal and rest overnight. Tomorrow we will have a whole day workshop and talk in KFUPM. Looking forward to the exciting opportunities to meet our potential collaborators.

Puteri lilin

A surprising piece of art from burning aromatic candles overnight (don't worry - it was burnt with windows wide open to ensure proper ventilation).

一杯水洗澡

跑步后满身大汗。已经八点了， 打开水喉只有少量水流出来！打电话询问才知道临时断水了。

因此只能用手接水洗身，等供水恢复再好好的冲凉。

Nalaveli to the electrician team - the supervisor and his crews

Nalaveli - very good , excellent in Tamil.

Water heater trips the power for the whole house for two consecutive nights. The third or fourth time since I moved in. It happened yesterday after coming home from jogging, and on the night before, it happened when I was bathing and I will have to go downstairs to lit a candle.

The problem has been there since I moved in. If I used too much hot water, an over-current will occur while heating up the water heater tank and power trip will happened.

The supervisor for the electrical gave instruction to his crew to reset the power, change the melted small wire connector to a bigger one. So the root cause is found - insufficient power handling capacity of the electrical connector (day one problem due to improper use of electrical components). With that, I would have the peace of mind. Very good.
