Taiping Lake Garden

Last Sunday, we went to the Taiping Lake Garden. It is still as fascinating as ever.






Look at the naughty monkeys playing on the car!
I was supposed to park my car there but seeing that the monkeys were loose,
I got frightened and parked somewhere else instead.
Camera Critters

Somehow, this monkey is adorable with its little one! So cute!


This monkey must be a joker! Trying to amuse us!





This bridge is one of the significance of the Lake Garden.


I just admire the zig-zagged bridge!


Lovely view of the surrounding trees!


See the uniqueness of the branches!



See how the branches reach out!


Oh, the fountain is still there! I haven't seen it for years!


Wow, the boat ride!



Scenic Sunday

    Many years ago when my kids were young we had a nice experience in this garden. I remember the Japanese garden.

    I will try to bring my now adult daughters here and see if they remember...

    thanks for the memories Wenn.

    I have a little phobia about monkeys, I think they hate me and can't wait to land their claws on me.

    *hide for cover*

    Nonetheless, those monkeys are cute.

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
