The Immortal Godzilla (ゴジラ) !

I use to be obsessed with Godzilla when I was little (I guess I still am). I remember drawing pictures of the monster destroying cities when I was in art class. Till now,I still think Godzilla is still the king of all monsters and Godzilla will forever be king in Japan, so questioning that is not an issue.

If you remember the film or the creature- it probably goes something like this.

Take a look:

This wasn’t the creature where Puff Daddy sings together on stage !

Say hello to little Godzilla!

When this creature stands, he reminds me of Godzilla. But yes, this is a very nice looking iguana.

Fact - Godzilla is from Japan not France !! Hollywood created the immortal version of Godzilla that can be killed by humans. Original version was a  Japanese movie , first appearing in Ishiro Honda's 1954 film  Godzilla.

Hiking To A Mystical Temurun Waterfall, Langkawi Malaysia.

This pics was taken at the Temurun Waterfall in Langkawi. Located on the north-western part of Langkawi Island on the way to Datai Bay.To be honest , I dont like the photo and the woods in this particular area are just so strange to my eyes.

Everything is so weird and covered with lichen and moss . . .

I found it a bit spooky...

Journey To The Bottom Of The Sea- Langkawi Chapter.

Just got back from exploring the Langkawi Underwater World. This unique Underwater World Langkawi is the gigantic 15-meter long walk-through tunnel consisting of 500,000 liter seawater which houses many big fishes and sea creatures including the Goliath Garoupa. Although it is not as big as the Osaka Aquarium (Kaiyukan 海遊館 ),in Japan, overall it was  still a great trip.

As usual, I attached herewith several images from the trip.

Senandung Anak Laut

Aktiviti untuk memanjat Gunung Mat Chincang hari ini terpaksa dibatalkan. Mengikut cerita teman teman, Air Terjun Temurun dikatakan kering kontang akibat kekurangan hujan semenjak dua tiga hari kebelakangan ini. Oleh kerana telah berjanji dengan anak anak untuk keluar untuk berexplorasi, maka terpaksalah saya menghala ke Tanjung Rhu lagi (minggu lepas sudah pun ke sana) untuk berkelah dan menyertai aktiviti penduduk tempatan seperti menarik pukat ikan di persisiran pantai.

Alhamdulillah, tangkapan ikan petang tadi agak banyak walaupun air singkat (surut melampau). 

Penduduk tempatan yang begitu rajin menyiapkan pukat untuk menangkap ikan. 

Permulaan. Aktiviti seperti ini selalunya dilakukan ketika air surut.   

Hanya ikan besar yang di ambil.Yang kecil harus dilepaskan semula.

Ikan Talang adalah majoriti ikan yang paling banyak dijerat petang tadi. 

Ikan buntal pun banyak. Kalau di Jepun, ikan buntal atau "Fugu" ini adalah menu masakan yang cukup mahal dan eksklusif di sana.

Walaupun tidak di makan, janganlah biarkan ikan tersebut mati. Adalah lebih baik ianya dilepaskan semula ke lautan untuk tatapan generasi akan datang.  

Tangkap dan Lepas.

Wordless Wednesday #5 - Legendary "Bujang Senang"

Super Croc - The Legendary Bujang Senang.

Newspaper cutting dated 22nd May 1992.

On May 21, 1992, an Iban girl, Dayang anak Bayang was killed by Bujang Senang at Pelaban River, another tributary of the great Batang Lupar River near Lingga in Sri Aman Division, Sarawak Malaysia. The monster croc reputedly killed 100 villagers over a period of 50 years and was finally shot and killed with 44 bullets by several police sharpshooters and Iban hunters after a four-hour ordeal. It was the biggest and oldest crocodile ever caught in the area.
