Beach soccer

Having fun on Muara beach...playing beach soccer...or whatever its called. We have these nice facilities on the beach..for soccer, volleyball, bbqs . Maybe we should build a golf course on the beach. hahaha! That would be fun! See who can hit that fat guy bobbing in the water. hehe. Luckily the family has lots of kids for soccer. Fun that way. Right after us, these group of bigger guys started playing. Tediam kami bah! hah! They play rough! Are they playing for money..???

Waves

The strength within. Looking from afar, the water looks calm, with gentle rolling waves spewing onto the beach. Until you see its power as it pounded the rocks. Over and over. And you realise that all is not what it seems.

Kids having fun

Our beach fun in Tungku. We let the kids play in the surf, with those large-ish waves. With us adults staying on the beach and looking on. And they had fun. They had lots of fun. Which prompted some of us adults to join the kids playing in the water. Tungku beach is beautiful. It has these nice big waves that just keep on pounding and pounding. Lots of fun being in there. I saw some people bringing body boards and those little surfboard thingies. That must be really fun!

Tamu

Pics of the old tamu. Taken on a busy Friday. It was fun. Tho i had to take from afar becos i wouldnt think people here would welcome a Melayu moving with an SLR and clicking in their faces. Funny how its ok for a tourist to do that but not for a local. But the tamu is a wonderul photo opportunity. Lots of colourful characters. I did see some kids playing rather dangerously on the dry river tho. Kinda yucky too i thought.






JP lights

The lights in Jerudong Park in December. Was beautiful but wished there were more. I thought i had seen most of the animals before at a friends' house. Hmmm.

Down at the padi field

A visit to the farm. My anak-anak had fun huh? yeah..they dont go down to the farm much. And when they're there, all they do is run around and throw stuff. But they're curious little people..they ask about everything from the padi plant to the little birds that fly all over. Nice huh?

On the rocks

Pictures taken among the rocks in Serasa. We were driving around on a Sunday. Saw lots of people fishing. Banyak bah! Interesting how many people are taking up fishing nowadays. I personally find it boring but there must be something in it for these people. Its hot too. Maybe when i was small kecik-kecikdulu dulu fishing was interesting. But its just not my thang nowadays. Besides, i get my fish from the pasar. Lagi senang.

Took these shots on my telephoto at (i think) 400mm. It was early afternoon so was hot. And the suns too bright and too vertical.
