-  I guess this is a type of palm tree.  It looked fat near its neck.

It was somewhere near a college during a noon time and I was shooting these trees.  They are members of a family, accompany each others for years.

Scroll to the top of this page, I am currently using a picture of a goup of trees as my blog header picture.  Does it look similar the picture above?  There were a nunbers of header pictures which were taking turn to appear on the top part of this blog, but now I fix it only to show that picture only.  If I have changed it in the future, you can still find it here (the first picture).

-  A tree can have an unchanged posture for years, and only move slowly if the nature has done something to it.  But human can destroy them in minutes.

-  Trees can have different types of hair styles.

I like to have the Albert Einstein hair style, but since Malaysia is a hot country, I wish I can have bald head instead, without have to worry how people look at me.  Is it possible?

Have you ever think of saying “thank you” to the shade tree that always cover your car from direct sun light?  I bet you will only discover it when the tree has gone.  The shade tree must be chosen properly so that it won’t drop it branches and hit the cars.

-  Trees can change their hair colours according to the 4 season in a year.  Oh no…  Are they going to become bald when the winter come?

-  It look like a haunted willow tree.  I wonder if a kid dare to stand underneath this tree.

I had a willow tree at my home garden but it was chopped by my father months ago, because he afraid that the root of the willow tree may damage our house building structure.  I felt sad and I can only had its photos as my memory.  It was once grown very tall up to about one and a half stories tall which was almost as tall as our house but I don’t have that photo.

-  The first moment I looked at these trees, the pictures of an elephant came to my mind.

-  It looked like an elephant trunk.   I don’t know the name of this tree, can I call it “elephant tree”?

-  A partially-leaveless tree always gives a lonely feeling.  The birds are its friends which accompany them most of the time.  If the tree can understand my words, I want to ask the tree if it feels thirsty.

-  This tree looks like a slim and tall girl which shows her beauty in front of me (as a natural beauty pageant judge).  :p  High score for her.

-  Can you find a father tree, mother tree and a kid tree?  They remind me about what the word “family” means.

F  -  Father
A  -  and
M  -  Mother
I  -  I
L  -  Love
Y   -  You

-  This is some kinds of seeds that I always see in Australia.  It is used as the top layer soil on ground to prevent the unwanted wild grass to grow on the ground surface.  In Malaysia, we used small pieces of unwanted / recycled plywood instead.

I like trees.  I wish to have a fruit garden where SiewPeng and I will be proud of it.  When our hair colour has turn into silver, we can sit on a bench under the trees, talk about our memories, enjoy our favorite fruits, listen to the bird songs and watch the sunset.

Wow, the plane was just right above my head!!! For kids, can you please tell me how many wheels are there?

We were walking on the street on a Sunday afternoon to the train station, and while I was photographing things on the streets, I found it and quickly zoom my camera to 560mm, and captured this, it’s not perfect because the left wing was not completely captured in the photo above. My camera was in exposure bracketing mode, I don’t have time to switch it into burst shooting mode. Within a few seconds, it was gone, and I can only take the picture below.

- There is a kangaroo on the plane.

I am always curious but not dare to try, what will happen to my mobile operator logo when I was on the airplane. When will it change from one operator to another if I fly from one place to another? Is there any border for the telco service provider in the middle of an ocean?

I have a customised operator logo which dissapeared when I reached Australia. I was using roaming service at first, and later I used phone card to call back Malaysia.

Collecting as a Hobby

Two evenings ago (Monday evening) we were having a dinner and I talked to an uncle (the father of one of our friends) who like to collect old coins. I wonder if there is anyone collect the operator logo while he is using the roaming service of his local telco SIM card at other nations. The above operator logo is my first collection. :p Nowadays collectors can go crazy, and there will be endless things to collect. Many years ago I have a lecturer who collects different types of processors and RAM (Random Access Memory) of a computer. Anyone collect different model of mobile phones???

Do you still remember I have collected differents types of apples and brinjals/eggplants? I still have a few more posts about Perth, and later I will show you my new collection - different type of beans.

Just accoss the hotel that we stayed, not far from the bus stand, we found this road sign. We were surprised because the hospital doesn’t accept accident or emergency. We have question in our heads… Where should we go to if there is an accident or emergency?

I am not sure about the answer because I haven’t study the map of Perth in details, but what I can tell myself is that… … “Since Perth as a developed city, I believe there will be another hospital that accept accident and emergency cases not far away from this hospital.” Am I right?

- Can you see SiewPeng and Colin was under the overbridge? We know we were small and only when we were small, we can show that the bridge is huge.

It is a specially-designed curved-shaped overbridge that allow bicycle and trolley to get across the road. I have tried to push a trolley with the food we have bought in a trolley and got up to the bridge, it was not as heavy as I thought.

- Looking across the road from Westfield.

- Looking towards Westfield’s direction from across the road.

Can someone in Perth tell me if both sides of the bridge are symmetric? From where the design came from? Who designed it? And when was it built? I am very interested to know about these answers.

We found another pedestrian overbrigde which has same design as this one in somewhere not far away, but I have forgotten the road name and had not taken its photo because I was in a taxi and it passed too fast before I have time to switch on my camera. So I have found 2. I am sure there are more at other parts in WA (Western Australia) or even Perth. I just haven’t discovered them yet.

- Looking at the overbridge from different angles.

You may laugh at me and thought that I am from jungle and have never seen such a common thing in a city. I admit that this is the first time I see this design but I am not from the jungle. :p And before you laugh at me, you must think carefully if there is anything that you haven’t seen before, otherwise I will laugh at you too. :p

This is a scheduled post, I did not wake up such early. HAVE A NICE DAY.

-  There is a tall big stone with all the major supermarket name in the shopping centre.

We are not shopaholic, therefore when we talk about shopping I can’t write much.  I will write less word in this post, but focus on an incident that I saw right in front of the McDonald at Westfield.

-Black, White, Red and Gray.  A Special design and colour combination.

-  Can you see the overbridge?  I will blog about it in the coming posts.

-  Another Entrance.

-  Car Park.

-  This board specify the Term of entry and exclution of liabilty.

-  ”Please come again.”  … …We had come again and again within 3 days while we were in Perth.

Here comes the stories.  Can you see a red-shirt kid standing in the middle of the road?  Do you know what was he doing?  Besides him, I found a few of other kids sitting beside the road holding something in their hands.  I asked myself what are they going to do?  Were they going to fight with each other?  The answer is not.  They are cleaning the glass on cars while the drivers were waiting for the red light to turn green.  The drivers pay some tips to the kids.  It is a method to earn a living as a kid.

Not to be racist, but the kids have a dark skin, can someone explain why?  Is there any white-skin kids doing this as well?  I am just curious.

-  This camera house is located across a strees beside the parking lots of Westfield.  We just passed by and don’t have enough time to pay it a visit.  If have time, I would like to check if they are selling the step up ring for my camera.

We went to a shop calls Australian Geographic in city that sells a lot of interesting things, including telescope, microscope, kangaroo, and fun games for kids and many about Australia.  We hope we can spend more time there.
