Dog Sculpture & Murals Part 2, Prawn Village In Tanjung Tualang

This is part 2 and the last post for the murals in Prawn Village in Tanjung Tualang. If you are interested, you can click here for part 1.

Udang Galah or fresh water prawns or some will refer to as big head prawns painted on the wall.

Pulleh Rickshaws

This looks like the old Yau Tet Shin Market or Round Market in Ipoh which is now replaced by The Octagon, Ipoh.

This one looks like the Railway Station in Ipoh.

This is probably the Kellie's Castle in Batu Gajah.

A cute sculpture of a dog with spectacle.

Linking to Monday Mural.

Jesus replied that the time had come for him to return

to his glory in heaven, and that "I must fall and die

like a kernel of wheat that falls into the furrows of the earth.

Unless I die I will be alone - a single seed.

But my death will produce many new wheat kernels - 

a plentiful harvest of new lives.

(John 12:23-24, The Living Bible-TLB)

Lakeview In Kampar & Homeward Bound

After Prawn Village in Tanjung Tualang, we drove to Kampar. 

It was still early and we were not ready to go home yet.

Blue sky and white clouds.

We reached Kampar Westlake at about 2pm.

We stopped to snap some photos.

I have been here a few times when my sons were studying here. This is a nice place for the students to gather and loiter here especially in the evening.

We wanted to have ice-kacang or shaved ice dessert in one of the shops in Kampar town but found the shop closed. So we decided to drive straight back to Ipoh.

Sign by the roadside.

Passed by a petrol station. Dark cloud looming over us. Later there was a heavy downpour but stopped before we reached home.

I bought the above snack from Tanjung Tualang.

I bought 2 packs. 1 plain and 1 with black sesame.

This used to be our favourite childhood biscuits, folded into a triangle.

There used to be a folded paper inside the triangles but only a few with coins.

We kids are more interested in getting the coin than eating the biscuits. Those were the days. These days, these biscuits no longer have any coin inside.

Since it was still early when we reached home, I had time to boil plain rice porridge for dinner.

I had some leftover pork cooked with belimbing buluh or Averrhoa bilimbi fruits.

I opened a packet of preserved vegetable with peanuts.

The amount is just enough for 2 people.

A simple and light dinner after a sumptuous lunch in Tg Tualang.

 Come to me and I will give you rest -

all of you who work so hard beneath a heavy yoke.

Wear my yoke - for it fits perfectly - and let me teach you;

for I am gentle and humble, and you shall find rest for your souls;

for I give you only light burdens.

(Matthew 11:28, The Living Bible-TLB)

For whatever God says to us is full of living power:

it is sharper than the sharpest dagger,

cutting swift and deep into our innermost thoughts and

desires with all their parts, exposing us for what we really are.

(Hebrews 4:12, The Living Bible-TLB)
