Back Alley

This is a small Back alley in between two buildings. It is the so-called back lane as well. I am surprised that it is decorated with plants and also a small little taoist temple with red roof. It is the temple for (Dato Kong/ Na Tuk Kong.) His worshippers is to belief that this Malay-chinese/ Malay-muslim medium are not to be ignored or disturbed, as it has powerful influence over their daily lifes.

Malayan Tobacco Company

This picture was taken in 1962, when the president of the Pan-Malayan Coffee shops' Association, Mr. Lim Jew Siang and his representatives visited the Malayan Tobacco Company. Mr. D. Brisden was then the chairman of the Malayan Tobacco Company. What interest me in this photo was that I did not know there was a so-called Coffee shops' Association and I wonder whether this association still exists today? Also the people portray in this picture has all the same kind of hairstyle, which are typically chinese! Cute.

Money Plant?

Well, This particular plant here is named money plant... I do not know why but it's true. With the recession hitting everyone, this plant becomes a hit as well. It is believe that how fast this plant grows will reflect on your personal financial status. I wonder......

Scenic View

This picture is taken at Gurney drive, one of the beautiful beaches in Penang island. Sadly that it may change in time to come as there will be developments of a new high way/road passing through.

Local Band

Manage to capture our local band here playing and singing... they sing very good songs in Malay and English. It was awesome! I'll update here once I know their band name! I forgot who they are?!? Anyone knows who they are do let me know!

Climbing hard!

It's trying it's best to come out of it! Well, she likes it anyway.... in and out of the tub!

I'm Back again!

Sorry people as I was quite busy and away for holiday to the land of Harry Potter and Enjoying French Kiss...... so I'm back now with loads of pictures! Hurray!

Full Moon

It's the Mid-Autumn festival....... so far so good.... no rain last night, so we can truly enjoy the night; watching the moon and eating mooncakes! Yum! Oh this year we had Omochi instead.

Really old photos

Saw this photo and it suddenly gives me a nostalgic feeling. This photo does not show any sign of happiness although it is a wedding photograph. Those days all the marriages were pre-arrange by family members.

Surviving

Found this cute little thing striving for survival in a big piece of rock! Awesome!

Yet some people are wasting life just like that... sigh*

Feels like Monet

When I took this picture I did not realise that it does looked like a Monet. Well that's my kind of impressionism.

Star Wars...

Well to capture the attention of children, these two dress up in costumes and wears masks. I do not know about entertaining children, but I know the weather is damn hot and I bet they are sweating like mad in those costumes! I salute them!

Blue Sky

Been having some emergency and feeling gloomy. The blue sky on one fine day throws some sunshine to the land which has been having downpours since begining of September.
