Yesterday I trekked into the Penang National Park, and my guide first showed me this old dock and the fishing boats that are no longer being made because they catch too many little fishies, as well as all the big ones; there are now only 50 of these boats left, and I rather loved them.
The first little fellow we saw as we trekked up and over the ridges and hills in the forests was this 
long tailed macaque who reminded me of my father before he died! There is something so gently old but almost delicate about him, his front left foot, pointing out just a touch, as if to show that he hs one dancing fool!

Sadly, only about 1 in 100 make it...
Sadly, only about 1 in 100 make it...When we took the boat back along the shore, we saw this big old water monitor lizard, just dipping and diving as one of his friends sprawled out on a rock to sun himself.
Once I got back to land, I received a call from Chandra who came and fetched me, took me to the Spice Garden where Pearly fed me the most heavenly bowl of laksa I have ever tasted, loaded with fish, mints, veggies and yummy, rich, thick, spicy broth.
, and don't ANYbody try to touch it!
