I found a small “GuanYin” statue in the temple’s garden.

The yellow flag with red borders.

And a incense burner which is roofed.

We walked up the hill and found this gourd-shaped big red pot.  It is used for planting bamboo.  As I know bamboo (especially purple bamboo) is related to “GuanYin”.

Another big pot.

Turtle from top view.

The red Chinese word on the stone is pronounced as “Nian” which means “Thought“.  This single word is formed by 2 sub-word.  The upper part is “Jin1” which means current moment, and lower part is “Xin1” which mean heart.  When 2 words combined become 1 word, it means what is currently in your heart = thought.

This is the beauty of Chinese word.

The word “Nian” actually cannot be exactly defined by the word “thought”.  The meaning is close but the concept might be different.

I believe that “thought” is as powerful as action, and it is actually an action in our mind which will lead to create another potential action.

I keep on telling myself that positive thought is important.

I like this word on the stone and I took photos of it from different distances and angles.

To be continued … … in Part 3.

We were told by the pink taxi driver that there is a temple at the far end of the road.  We walked quite a distance (at least few hundred meters along the road and through part of the beach) and finally we reached there.

There is a small bridge to access the temple.

At the footpath towards the temple, looking towards the beach and the sea.

There is an artistic hut near the entrance but outside the temple.

And there is a big turtle statue.

From here,  we started to take photos of ourselves “crazily”.

There is a stone labeled with “De2Yin1” which means the voice of moral.

We snapped ourselves quite fast because there were people waiting for us to pose at the decorated feature surrounding the temple.  We were also waiting for someone until our turn to take the photo there.  This happens when you travel on a public holiday.

Sometimes, we “accidentally” included other visitors and passers-by in our photo because we really can’t wait for too long.

The wall was painted in plain gray and the door and railing are in yellow.  They were highlighted with red lines.

This design looks like the great wall, but later I found a mini great wall there and we had missed it.

Mushroom.

The red Chinese words are “XiangFeng” which mean meet by chance.

SiewPeng’s parents came with us to this island, but they were too tired to walk to this temple.  We didn’t let them wait for us too long, and I snapped the photos as fast as I can.  Although it was only about half an hour there, I have taken about hundred photos of ourselves.

Next, I will show you more of our photos taken in this Lin Je Kong Temple.

We told the taxi driver to stop at any one of the beautiful beaches of Pangkor Island, and he stopped across the road of this colourful store.  He also told us that a GuanYin Temple is at the end of the road.  From here, I started to take a lot of photos.

From what my GPS device told me, this place is called Teluk Nipah (Nipah Bay).

This is the store that sells different types of swim wear, we didn’t prepare to swim, but just walked around and enjoyed our lunch.  We walked to a temple which took us about 15 minutes, enjoyed sight seeing and taking photos of ourselves.

I have a lot of photos yet to be processed before I post them here.  Stay tuned.

We had a short day trip to Pangkor Island last week.  We bought nothing except these seashell keychains.  Each shell is labeled with Pangkor, and has a small hole to allow the keychain to be connected.

The girl who was selling them told us this type of purple shell only appears after the Tsunami 2004 happened, and now, there are only a few left.

This is my favorite.  It is small, and usually people put it near their ears where they can listen to the natural sound of the beach.  Beware if a crab were staying inside and it might bite your ear!

This shell looks like a cap.

I wonder if there is a better way to sell these shells instead of making them into keychains.  The shells hurt when they were drilled with the small hole, and the word “Pangkor” has taken away their natural colours.

These pictures were taken when we were traveling on a bus on the North South Highway, West Malaysia.  It was cloudy and the sky was almost dark.

After I have edited the pictures, I found that the power cable poles look like one of the Power Rangers show’s monsters.

The first picture above has been adjusted on its hue, whereas this picture has only been touched on its contrast.

There are blackouts happening quite frequently in Sarawak recently (few hours each time, few times a week, randomly).  I hope it won’t happen again.
