water

My son's experiment. He asked to take a shot of a water splash. He was throwing these large rocks onto the little drain while i try to take a pic. Out of 20 shots, i only managed to get a couple of splashes. I am not very good at this.

huts and sand

Pantai Seri Kenangan again, this time along the beach further to the right. Its beautiful there for picnics and just lazing and doing nothing. Nice long white sandy beach. And there are these little huts and shacks all along the beach from the days when the people of the nearby villages used to hangout there on lazy sunday afternoons. Its all run down nowadays. Pity. I guess they dont go down to the beach as often nowadays.

Monkeys

The proboscis monkey. Caught a whole group of them the other day, just playing in the trees. Some small, some large-ish. Like flying jua durang atu. Happily hopping from one tree to another. I couldnt get closer because i was on the jetty thingy at the Makam diLuba (or something), err....thats somewhere in Bunut. Caught these on my 400mm. Maybe next time i'll venture closer.

playground

The playground in Pantai Seri Kenangan on a Sunday. Lots of kids playing..some doing what kiddies do and play innocently, while some already displaying some anti-social tendency by showing their tough guy-ness. Damit damit sudah!!! Great they have these facilities at the beaches sudah.

tyreshop

Had some problems with my wheels the other day. So i stopped at this professional-looking tyre shop and i had them take a look at it. Nice people there. Three indonesians..couldnt stop smiling, especially after i whipped out my camera. Heehee. Thats what i call service with a smile. One of them is a girl...i asked her if her job is the same. She said 'ngak eh'. She only helps out, not doing the heavy tyre stuff. Sort of like a PR lah. They did a good job. And it only cost me 8 bucks. Nice.

fishing boats

Went for a drive today. Dropped by Jerudong beach. Fishing boats coming in, and the fishermen sorting out their catch. At least i think thats what they're doing. I oso dont know..never done that before. They look like they're having fun.

schoolbags

This was interesting. I saw this the other week. Schoolbags look good now. Knapsacks style. Kinda cool. And they come in all colours. .which is kinda nice. This was taken in Bandar. I like the way the bags are displayed. Easy to choose. I wonder if they last..?

Kids went bowling recently at the Empire. Had lots of fun. They dont know how to bowl the right way...but who says its gotta be right? But it was fun for them. Lots of gutter balls lah. Biasa lah...balls are too heavy for them. The bigger boys i think were kinda shy playing next to some girls who were playing next to them. tsk tsk tsk!

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.
