Ducks Patch

We went into Pahang state to the Elephant Conservation reserve. The kids got to feed, ride and swim with the elephants It was a church youth activity and all appeared to have enjoyed themselves.

The national zoo in KL is one that is typical of Malaysia. Has great potential but is not maintained. It has plenty of animals but just not seem to maintain anything. There is rubbish around and even sick animals on display. Still I got some great photos, this is because the cages are smaller so you can get closer to the animals.

We finally got to Malacca with the girls. This is my Favourite town. They both got to enjoy the sights, sounds and smells of Malacca. Mum was again in her element in the material shops. And I enjoyed just taking lots of photo’s. The girls just enjoyed the sights and getting hot. And they wouldn’t put the snake around there necks……

We went for another trip to Malacca and on the way stopped at Mini Malaysia. The place has a house from each State of Malaysia. We all enjoyed ourselves but it was not worth the money we paid. The show was short and more to show off the snakes... But it was fun..

This was the first time for Gemma and Lissa. A great way to start the new year. Lissa didn’t like all the steps and there was a lot of people but they all liked it.. Stephan Enjoyed himself as well.

Well what a new year. Gemma has gone home now, but while she was here we got to go to Aquaria, KLCC, Malacca, Batu Caves and Chinatown to name some and still got to go to the usual parties. All spending most Dad's Money and all of her holiday money.. She left happy but in the knowlegde that it maybe years before we get to see her again... We look love her and wish her the best with her plans.

We got to the Cameron Highlands. They look like a patch work quilt.
