"Trip to PD"

"Trip to PD"



Greetings!



The rented place has coconut trees


The compound around the place is quite huge. Coconut trees can be found behind the house..and also a barbeque pit. Yea, we had barbeque stuff for dinner on the next evening.


Anyway, when my mom rented out this place, she was told that there was a beach just a short walk behind the place. And so..we decided to check out the beach...



The "beach" behind the rented place


..and oh boy, we were totally dissapointed. More like conned. The beach just sucks man. Wait, it's not even really a beach. Its just some badly unevened land.

Behind the rented place






Seedling


After checking out the beach, we definitely concluded we're going to find a proper beach to check out the next day. Meanwhile, most of my family members were at the mahjongg table which is something i don't know how to play. The rest were playing chor tai ti or whatever/whichever way you spell it in English which is somethin which i don't really excel at. I suck at that card game so i didn't bother joining my cousins and siblings. Instead, i have..





Entertainment's sake



..my own source of entertainment :) Just FYI, that movie on the notebook is "The Matador". Funny show, not bad a show. At least something to kill time with.


Next day, noon beckons...we set out hunting for a nicer beach...



The better beach


A 10 minute drive or so down the road, we finally saw something more inviting than what we have at our backyard. The sands were white, the tides are low. Good sign. No, i didn't swim.. instead..





Who goes there?



Just us





Just us...






Passing by






The little ones




Seeing these miniature things scurrying away or burrowing themselves within the sand upon my presence got me amused. lol. Yea these things bury themselves in the sand if they see something that appears as a threat to them. Likewise the first photo. I even tried to dig them out of the sand but failed :( THey dig themselves in really deep..



Low tide


I also went to distrub the homeless ones...


Hello?



Land?..



Where?!



zZzZ

When i held the thing up, it seemed like the little fella was looking for land. Poor fella. I knew i should've put it down..at least slowly.



The better beach


More photos of the little one...

Little one looking at ya'


Soon after, it was time to head back to our place to clean up and get ready for dinner which is where the barbeque pit is set to good use.


The better beach...


After dinner, we chat abit..talk..mahjonng bit more..chor tai ti abit more, while i find ways to keep myself occupied ... and soon..it was time to chow. Good bye PD, hello civilisation :)




The better view


It feels so good to be back home, in front of my pc, tho it was only a one nite stay there. Anyway, joke for the day;

Why is Superman's clothes always tight fitting?

Got this joke from Kwee Jin. Think rationally and logically. Haha..thinking lame won't help this time :)

- take care and God bless, everyone.
