新加坡夜间动物园 Singapore Night Safari
夜幕的面纱为夜间动物园增添了神秘的悸动。感觉野生动物在夜光下特别凶猛,我们也特别期待可以目睹野生动物夜间的另类生活。
The night is always full of mysterious. Wild animals are wilder in the dark. We looking forward to witness the extraordinary life of the wild at night.

对不起,没有照片 Sorry, No Flash!
基于闪光灯对动物们的眼睛会造成严重伤害(长期的刺眼光芒会导致失明),我们都不允许启用闪光灯照相。没有闪光灯照的相--乌漆麻黑。
The flash will hurt the animals eye in a long run (probably become blind), hence, we are not allowed to use any flash for photography. Well, no flash = no photo ;p

列车游行 Tram Jalan-Jalan
漆上动物皮的列车徐徐地环绕了整个野生动物园。可惜列车轨道建得离开动物略远,加上列车步步前行毫无停顿,我们走马看物地绕了一圈后,实在意犹未尽。
The tram brought us to checkout the animals. However, the tram track is a bit too far from the animals, and the tram don't really stop. We quickly glance here and there and still missed out a spoonful.

慢慢走,慢慢看 Walk See Walk See
想看到刺激的镜头真的要有耐心哦!
If you wanna have a look on exciting scenes, you really gonna be patience!

猎鱼猫 Fishing Cats
小溪里蹦蹦跳跳着好多肥实的鱼儿,小溪边蓄势待发着三只猎鱼豹。猎鱼豹体积当然比我们家里的猫大上好几倍咯。但和一般的豹相比确实是小了许多。也因为如此的体积悬殊,猎鱼豹便索性猎取水里的鱼为食了(也因此而得其名)。哦!我们紧张地眼睛都不敢眨,心想着快要可以亲眼见证猎鱼豹猎食的经过咯!
The fish jumping lively in the river, the riverside standing three fishing cats waiting for the right moment to attack. Fishing cats, of course, are so much larger than our home cats. But as compared to other big cats, they are very small. Perhaps this is why the fishing cats have to hunt the fish (and this is how they got their name too). Wow! We stared and we waited. Thinking that we are just about to witness the hunt of the fishing cats!

等着等着。。。溪里的鱼儿依旧蹦蹦跳跳,溪边的猎鱼豹维持蓄势待发。。。我们放弃了等待,往下个站走去。。。
We waited for so long...the fish in the river still jumping lively, the fishing cats beside the river still readying for a catch... our patience finally exhausted, so we left and continue our journey...

马来豹 Malayan Leopard
瞭望台就在马来豹歇息处。隔着玻璃,我们看到马来豹慵懒地躺着。马来豹体积有一个大胖子这么大。豹纹鲜艳地印咯在柔美的毛皮上。我们刚好也走累了,于是随意地在玻璃旁坐了下来。说时迟,那时快,不晓得是不是大胖子看起来特别可口,抑或是坐着的我们看起来比较容易猎取,马来豹竟然站起来,紧贴着玻璃徘徊。我们将头贴近玻璃,和马来豹面对面,清楚地看见它晶莹剔透的双眸里的自己。虽然隔着层玻璃,马来豹的凶猛从它的眉目之间透射我们的心盼。
We lookout the Malayan Leopard at his shelter. Over the glass, the Malayan Leopard lazing on the floor. The Malayan Leopard is just as huge as Fatty da Teddy. The spots colourfully dotted on his fine fur. Somehow we are quite tired, so we sit down beside the glass for a rest. Out of a sudden (maybe Fatty da Teddy looks delicious, or we look very much like a food to him while we are sitting), the Malayan Leopard stand up and approached to the glass. We have our heads closed to the glass, faced up with the Malayan Leopard. Clearly we see ourseleves in his crystal clear eyes. Although we are apart by the glass, the Malayan Leopard fiercefully glanced us thru the glass.

扑通扑通。。。我的心迅速地跳动,不晓得马来豹听见了吗。。。
My heart beats speed-up, I wonder if the Malayan Leopard heard me...

对体积庞大的动物莫名的憧憬,加上晚上黑茫茫的神秘兮兮,全程我都紧绷着神经,生怕错过了任何精彩的片头。如果你也喜欢野生动物,如果你也很好奇夜里的动物在干啥,不妨就走一趟咯。
Throughout the whole journey, I'm so excited to see my favourite big cats in the dark. If you like wild animals, if you are curious what are the animals doing at night, just check it out!

Season's Greeting from Spongebob >v<

HOHOHOHOHOHOHOHO....MERRY CHRISTMAS

Got this superhumorous mask from Black Head da Pig. The eyes pop-out and peal the christmas bell to celebrate happiness and joy! Btw, the gigantic teeth stuck into my mouth kinda painful. Ouch!


My first christmas party with a whole turkey from Fatty da Teddy. The turkey looked dry but it is damm juicy. Surprisingly smooth and melted in your mouth.

There were lots of nosh at the party! We have baked potato, tuna biscuit, pizza, turkey meatloaf, fried squid and also a must-try mango pudding*.
* Mango pudding sincerely prepared by Black Head da Pig. Although the mango is sour, the pudding is no Q-ish, the milk is not sweet..oops....not as horrible as it sound. I like it, coz I has a penchant for sour mango? AHAHAHAHHAHA.....











Needless to say, gift exchange session is always the most palpitate part (exciting to get a favourable gift, or terrifying to get a lullysilly gift, WHAT HAVE YOU GOT ;p). Most unexpected gift is for Fatty da Teddy, he got a WHITTENING MASK (it seems that he needed it the most), AHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH. Black Head da Pig is the biggest winner, by getting the gift from Spongebob, and a sidebet jumbo cash prize of RM50!!!! What a good way to start their brand new year!!!

The orotund tones of the christmas songs diminishing gently in my dream.
... Silent night, holy night ...

怡保家家愉 Family Fun Ipoh Trip

都已经忘了最后一次和一家人去旅行是什么时候。。。
When was the last time we went for a trip ... ... ??? ???

那个头低低的男人头就是皮皮我咯!脸带笑容穿着黄衣的小男生就是胖胖(当时是瘦瘦)。至于普普嘛,还要被人抱咯。
The tomboyish girl with her head down was me! Cheerful boy with yellow shirt was Ponpon (alright, that time he was skinny). And Putput was still a toddle.

原来我真的老爱自得其乐。。。。哈哈哈哈。。。。
Hahahaha....seemed that I really enjoyed myself....

这次趁着华师父从老美回来度假,兴致勃勃地召集了所有林家人,浩浩荡荡地到怡保医饱肚皮。
Since Shifu Hua is backed from US for holiday, we take this opportunity to gather the Lims for Ipoh makan-makan trip.

玩玩乐 Playful Joy
霹雳洞 Perak Cave

早年霹雳洞只是一个采矿地。在这里挖到了不少银,所以取名为霹雳洞(音译马来语的银-Perak)。当地的华人也叫这里为银州。类似黑风洞,墙上都画满了神像,沿着洞形而造的梯级。只是这里没有满树的猴子,没有满洞的蝙蝠,没有满地的蝙蝠屎。
Perak Cave used to be a mining area. Silver was found here. That's why it is named - Perak Cave (Perak is silver in Bahasa Malaysia). The locals also called this place Silver State. Similar to the Batu Caves, drawings of Gods are on the walls, the staircases are constructed along the shape of the cave. Well, there is no monkeys all over the trees, no bats all over the cave, no bats' shits all over the floor.

爬出洞顶,别有洞天。可以眺望霹雳洞外部的峻伟,可以引来习习凉风的洗礼。我们还亲眼目睹了蛇吞蛙的情景,触目惊心。
A whole new world out of the cave. Gigantic outlook and cooling wind, all the efforts to climb up there paid up. Witnessing a snake swallowing a frog appalled us.











观音洞 GuanYin Cave




仿效香港的许愿树,这里有个许愿舟。买了个宝碟,在上面写下愿望,希望掷挂树上可以美梦成真。大部分的人都是掷了好几下才能顺利将宝碟挂在树上。或许能解释为到底要努力多少次,才能实现宝碟上写着的愿望咯。
Just like the wishing tree in HongKong, there is a wishing boat here. We have to buy a wishing plate (made by orange and praying papers), and write the wish on the praying papers. This wishing plate has to be thrown and hang on the tree. If it is hung there, all the wishes written on the plate will come true (no guarantee ;p). Most of them have to throw a few times to get it hung. Probably this means how many times of trying is needed for the wish to come true.





温泉 Hot Spring


把脚泡在热而不烫的泉水里,脚舒服地几乎溶化,身体的疲惫也一洗而去。温泉水最滚烫的出口连蛋也能煮熟。所以泡了差不多二十分钟,我也适可而止了。美中不足的是下起了雨,撑着雨伞,拎着背包,确实有点不能尽兴。
The spring water is comfortably hot. Putting my leg inside the water, all the tiredness melted. I didn't stay for long as eggs can be boiled in the water. Unfavoured part is the rain! Holding an umbralla and carrying a bag definitely let me down.

吃吃爽 Makan-makan
怡保河粉 Ipoh Horfan
滑而爽口的河粉,配上肥而不腻的白切鸡,还有萃萃的豆芽菜。难怪河粉还是怡保的最好吃咯。
Smoothy Horfan, fat but not oily chicken, and chrispy tauge. No wonder Ipoh's Horfan is the best!







题外话 ETC
最近爱上拍摄繁密中带秩序的特写。这个旅程就拍了好几些。
Recently I like the scene of crowds and sequences. Took a few during this trip.
