Miri IV - Not Just A Crocodile Farm

Not Just A Crocodile Farm - Of course - because it's more a mini-zoo, with many animals inside, although the main "course" - must be the CROCODILE itself!

OK, I sounds like too repetitive already...NVM (never mind) -lah...But I must take this opportunity to thank my cousin sisters and brother-in-law to bring me there!

We went with Hazel, Eric and Reynard, of course! (My far-nephews and niece!)

Photos time!

Must enter with a wristband!

Entance...and...

CROCODILES!!!

No feeding please...s'il vous plait...por favor!!!

Many crocodile-related samples...




I don't see the connection between lobster and crocodile...erm..that's fine...


Crocodiles behind !!!

Pointing to a traditional hand-made instrument from Sarawak - 风铃 - Traditional 'jingle bell'!

OMG...Even if front of toilet??? (Jackie: Whatever you say...)

To prevent protest from the feminists...For gender equalities =)

Moving on, more animals waiting!!!

PEACOCK AND PEAHEN

Birds...Peace =)

Labi-labi, a family member of kura-kura (tortoise) and penyu (turtle).


And now, the most DANGEROUS BIRD in the world!!!

This way please...OMG....nervous...nervous...

Miri II - Grand Old Lady

A weird topic right?

Actually it is ---

The First Oil Well in Malaysia!

Yeap, situated at Miri, Sarawak!

That's why I tell myself, I must get myself to the top of Canada Hill when I have arrived at this City of Seahorse! Must! And the Petroleum Science Musuem is also a MUST!

Oh, and I think I should remind everyone that, it is no longer involved in petroleum production, and the Oil Well has a history of A CENTURY now!

Now let's my photos tell the stories, hoohoohoo!!!

A view from Canada Hill - The City of Miri!
