So, still in Penang and we have a day free to ourselves. After the initial panic of being without a leader, we manage to flag down a local bus to get to the huge Kek Lok Csi Chinese Temple just out of town.Quite impressive collection of buildings...although Mike disappointed that no actual Crime Scene Investigation was going on. Learnt about a few local aid projects that they were involved in, one being the construction of a childrens hospital, destined to start sometime in the future. Current project is to build a pagoda over a huge 165ft bronze Buddha. Priorities eh?
Did see this rather smart bench as well.. we are thinking of importing them into the UK as a new venture?!??
The Chinese Disney dog bench is quite a sight, but then so is Mike with almost a beard! I'm enjoying your blog! Sal xx
ReplyDeleteHey Mickey ! Are you sure it's really a bench - it looks rather alarmed !! Drew
