Taman Negara

We had 3 days 2 nights in Taman Negara. It took us 4 hours to get there with a brief stopver in temerloh to pick up our guide. It was good to see that there was a National Forest Reserve with untouched tropical jungle. However driving there we saw many logging trucks taking huge logs out from the forest surrounding the reserve. Here is a picture of a virgin forest. Very picturesque!

Part of the canopy walk was closed and so we did 300m instead of the usual 500m. It was enough for me!! I am definietly more afraid of heights now. The trouble is you have to look down in order to see the plank you are walking on.

Photos from My Treo

Here are some photos from my Treo's (mobile phone) built in camera on my trip to Malaysia. There were about five shots but I decided on only three. One of the ones I left out was of me holding a bone...my face was so round, I hardly recognized myself. Why is it that all photos feature food?

The first is taken at Tai Thong on Mummy's birthday. It was not her BIG celebration but it was still a very nice time. We had Australian Shark's Fin...it wasn't as good as we had hoped but the other dishes were pretty good.




The second photo is from Madam Kwan's restaurant featuring Ice Kacang. It was quite good. I certainly enjoyed mine and this is the picture of Daddy getting ready to dig into his.

It was refreshing.










The last photo is taken at Mummy's big celebration. Meng is eating cake with chopsticks?? Is this the way cake is eaten in Malaysia. Perhaps it's a new trend that will catch on. All in all, a good trip. I'm glad for the time I had with all of you back in Malaysia.

Mummy's birthday party

Mummy's Birthday celebrated at home and then Pantai Seafood.

Pinewood Derby --- Part One

Oh....what a joy it is to post, and how much more if there were photos.....but I have not figured that part out yet. We had been working hard these past few days, perfecting these 'vehicles.'

According to Michael, it all went well even though it was hard work. Michael and Stephen each raced their own car....and we entered two cars in the open race. I imagine you are quite anxious to see how they all turned out. Yes.....that brings me back to the photos.....still working on it.

I leave you with this exciting thought......some prizes were won.....but which? You'll have to wait and see.
