Back From LalaLand

Hi all i've finally managed to clumber back to sunny Singapore. Though in my very humble and honest opinion, Sungai Besar is a much more sunny place. BUT, it was a good rest nonetheless and i've rejuvenated myself, albeit gaining a few spots on my body and well, starting to feel like a fish being scaled off daily. 

When i first thought of going back, there at the back of my mind i wanted to take nice pictures by the not-so-nice seaside (consists of mud and sand and... more mud and sand) i also wanted to take my mum's little piece of land called the garden, which in a few years time, has blossomed to become a tiny tropical rainforest. ALAS! i forgot to bring the charger for the camera's battery o.O 

Well, not to fret, since there are of course photo shops in Sungai Besar, to help the local develop photos of course. Upon checking, they have NEVER seen a canon DSLR battery before. well... o.O 

which ultimately leaves me with only a few pictures that i manage to salvage with about half the battery life. In fact there is a second battery, which i left here in sunny Singapore. THAT is how smart ppl can get when they are infected with chicken pox. enjoy the pics though =)




This is none other than one of my mum's multitude of plants. i dunno what is its name. just like we all dunno what's the names of those trees in the tropical rainforest. it just looks nice.




Another fruit and AH HA! it's called 'LIM KIM' in hakka i dunno wad it's called in other languages. someone enlighten me.




Being a fishing village, of course Sungai Besar will have a seaside. it's just how nice the seaside can be. Well, not very nice. i've taken this shot to purposely make the silhoutte stood out.




One of my favorite pics from salvaging the remaining juice of the battery. it's the stilts that some of the chalets are on.




Also one of my favorite pics. a crane was resting on top of the log. but too bad the lens is really not far enough even at 200mm it still appears to be so small.


P/S btw i really didnt expect Sungai Besar to turn up on wiki. wiki rawks =D
