Sam Poh Tong

My late FIL and late MIL were cremated and laid to rest at Sam Poh Tong, Ipoh. They had passed away about 20 years ago. Each time my BIL and SIL come to Ipoh, they would surely visit this cave to offer prayers.

So, a few days ago, I drove them here..



Can you see anything weird here?


At this time of the year, it is very quiet.

    The place looks deserted. I think more people visit the Ling Sen Tong nowadays. So sad to see the award winning garden like this. I wonder why?

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..
