Beca

pulau pinang beca
A closer shot of the beca's wheel. Beca is a transportation back in old days. It is somewhat similar with bicycle but just that it has added with a 2-person seats in front of the bicycle. Now, beca is widely used especially at tourist spots in Melaka and Penang.

Hop in and let's enjoy the breeze!

Have you tried any kind of transportation similar with this before? I know you would probably tell me that it's bicycle :p

Long overdue!

malaysia international fireworks competition

Sorry guys, I know this is a long overdue post!! The competition had ended 3 weeks ago and I have yet to edit the photos. Anyway, some of you might not know who's the winner yet. It's the Australian team, represented by Howards and Sons Pyrotechnics Pvt Ltd, they have won the inaugural Malaysia International Fireworks Competition (MIFC), beating three other teams - Malaysia, Japan and Italy. The theme of their fireworks display was "Aurora Australia".

The photo I posted previously was displayed by the Australia team. Whereas today I'm going to show you guys how the Japan team displayed their fireworks. Sad to say, there were times when I felt kind of boring in the earlier part of the show. But overall it was alright.




And the dazzling ending.

p/s: This is the last post about fireworks so you guys won't be bored by any photos from MIFC anymore. :P

Do you dare to drip?

baskin robbins
That's the tagline of Baskin Robbins, I guess? It's printed on the tissue. The ice cream definitely was tempting and I enjoyed eating it very much.

I'm sure I've dripped it. :)

So do you like to eat ice cream? My favorite flavors are chocolate or anything cheesecake-contained ice cream.

Palace of Justice.

putrajaya palace of justice
The Palace of Justice. It consists of five-storey building for judicial department and two-storey building which will house the courts, situated at Putrajaya. I noticed the design of the whole building looks alike with the Putrajaya Mosque which I posted the other day. What do you think?

Sorry for not updating anything here since the past few days. Been staying up few late nights; drinking hot steamy coffee to keep me wide awake through out the long haul night, to finish up my assignments and case studies. Well, I've been pretty lazy lately. ; ))

Street lights and signs.

malaysia street sign

A typical street sign in Malaysia. Sometime it is green in colour, and sometime it is blue in colour. And I have no idea about it - my bed is calling me. It's 2am. :/
