Visit to the Serikin Market near Indonesia Border

The second time I visit the place, went there with my mum at Saturday at around 2pm.
The weather was HOT!!!


The stuff that they sell are getting lesser, check out the blog post that I visit previously, last time they have more stuff compare to now.


The place that they sell vegetable, this is at the very end of the stalls.


Not sure what is this for, they said is for medicine. RM160 for one.
And the dude are selling aphrodisiac medicine, so I guess this must be something related to it.


Mum bought the fried banana, and the indo local titbits.

Cheers,

Forgot to bring an umbrella that day :( damn hot!!!

2012 Wesak Day, visit all the Buddhist Temple at Kuching

2012 Wesak Day, and procession team

On the Wesak day, since my mum is here I bring her to all the Buddhist temple to witness how is the Wesak Day celebration at Kuching. This is the Sarawak Buddhist Temple, and here they also have kindergarten school. So on this day, the teacher have selected a few pupils to wave the Buddhist flag, and welcome the guest of honour.



The pupils seems to be very happy able to play with the flag, and the teacher keep on reminding them to stay in their line. But after a while, the line just become like snake again. And the teacher have to remind them again... lols.


Then bring mummy various Buddhist temple to bath the little Buddha. 佛教居士林

As usual, there will be a night procession. Most of the schools in Kuching will organise a team to join the procession, and also the Buddhist temples.



And colourful Buddhist float, the judge will give marks to the prettiest float, and price will be given to the winner.

Where is the Pancor Hotspring @ Kuching, Serian Road?

 

Sorry for my sleepy face :) but I've work up around 5am that morning, waited for my friend to pick me up at 5.30am. At first they told me that we're going to the hotspring. So I tough, I've been to the hotspring before, and it doesn't take that long to reach, why we have to go so early?

Then, saw my friend drive pass the junction to the Annah Raise Hotspring, and keep on driving all the way to the Kuching-Serian road. And we drive pass the Siburan Village (17 Mile), then Pass the Beratok Village (21st Mile), and pass the Tapah Village (22nd Mile). Then he took a left turn into the Dragon School (aka College Tun Abdul Razak) at Tapah Village (22nd Mile Kuching Serian Road).

 

And then, we drive again for another 10 - 15 min, and I saw signboard saying "Pancor Hotspring", then we turn right, again, and follow the signboard again. And finally we reach our destination.

 

This is my first visit to the Pancor Horspring, and is so near to my grandma hose at Tapah Village. Next time I can come here to deep my leg before visiting grandma. 

Entrance for each person is RM3. They have toilet, changing room. And I also notice they are building a huge hall on the entrance. 

 

The whole place is like a pond, which have static water. Yeah, static water. Everyone will deep inside the hotspring. My fiend told me that not to worry about hygiene, cause the water is hot, and it will kill all the bacteria. But for me, I will still prefer to deep my leg only.

 

Whereas my friends, they all choose to deep the whole body into the hotspring pond. We are lucky that day, cause is a hazy day, so although the sun is already high up in the sky, we still not feel that hot.

I've deep my leg inside the water for more than an hours of time, and I begin to sweat after that, and a bit dizzy, maybe my blood pressure is getting high. But it really feels good to be able to deep your leg into the hot water ;)

I also check out the other site of the place, the water here are all static. Can see a lot of algae, the water here is not hot but is normal cold. Still unable to find any fish swimming around here. Maybe is too dirty. This place has a potential to become a good tourist attraction, am so proud of Kuching, it is really a hidden treasure.

soaking my feet only.....

Visiting Kampung Singai Atas @ Bau

How to look after a lots of Kids? read My previous visit to the family, to know more about this family.

 

For you who are having birthday, Happy Birthday :)

yeah, when we get a simple Happy Birthday wish on our birth day, we will feel warm, and happy, cause we know that we still have someone who remember us, someone who like us, someone who care for us, someone who we called friend/family.

 

When we asked this mother what is her children birthday, she needs to refer to the birth certificate for the actual day. Can't blame her for not remembering the children actual birthdate, cause too much of them, and she have to look after their living, study, work, health, wash clothes, etc.

After we know the birthday of the kids, we then went and celebrate birthday with the kids there. 

So my friend, please remember the birthday of your love one, family, kids, or best friend. And if your busy, a simple Happy Birthday text will be more than enough to make them happy for that day. 

Cheers,

Wilson Chin

Happy Birthday to all the May babies :)
