Too bad we couldn't make it Friday night ... or else, it might've been more enjoyable as we needn't rush around .... ;)
Rendezvoused around 0715hrs, moved off around 0730hrs
Reached the Pulau Ketam jetty around eightish and had breakfast while waiting for another member of the team ... no, that minion is NOT a team member
Arrived Pulau Ketam tennish. Checked in at Sealion and proceeded to walkabout.
Pulau Ketam is a fishing village built on stilts. Predominantly Chinese with a small population of Malays.
Main street
Local volunteer firefighting team crest and their office
Bicycles and motorised bikes be the mainstays of transport here and pedestrians hear the ringing of bells, whistles, horns and other vocalised sounds as riders attempt to pass. Zippy riders.
GRIFFIN checking out main street.
Main street is lined with eateries, hawker stalls and partial wet market with vendors of vegetables, fruits, fish and meat.
Seems the food is not as good as a few years back.
Snapshots of some berthed fishing boats waiting for their turn to head out again ...
Part of the creek that leads inland ...
Boat 'carcass'
This particular house had a line up of Yamaha outboards
Some bedecked motorised peds ...
Tried to capture her in mid-air but they kept moving further in ....
Place your bets .. errr .. orders ! :D
Deep fried mantis shrimp with onion rings look absolutely scrumptious !
Before & After ... natch !
Spicy bamboo clams, fishball soup, oyster egg with chili dip, oyster sauce shrimp and stir fried Chinese brussel sprouts
Various perspective views of the jetty ...
Beautiful sunset just before 1900hrs ... played around with the exposure
Sunday morning ....
Mainstreet eightish in the morning
One of the team was really taken by this blue door ... even entered the grounds to try taking a shot
But lighting wasn't conducive then ... got it the next morn
Sighh ... really wish for true macro ...
'twas a great outing .. wish we can do it again soon
