A Love Story

Absence is to love what wind is to fire. It extinguishes the small, it enkindles the great.

1:10 PM - National Day pictures

On National Day Agnes and myself went down to the Chinese Garden's to take some pictures together. As it turned out we did not have all that many good pictures together. It was a bright and sunny day. so the pictures turned out quite well. Of course that was at the expense of being tired,sweaty and hot while posing and walking around the premises...

P1020748-5

Think this is my favourite picture of the lot.

P1020748-2

Agnes looks good in pictures. Which in turn makes me look bad in them.

P1020745

Agnes in a shu nu moment.

P1020743

Any takers for a shampoo commercial?

P1020741-2

The princess and the frog.

P1020741-1

And by the way...the one above is the princess...

P1020740

Us at the top of the 7 storey pagoda.

P1020739

Love is bliss

P1020731

The Chinese Gardens are having their annual mid-autumn latern festival in september. And this is one of the many props we found around the park. An elephant no less.

P1020730

Security was tight due to the public holiday.

P1020724

Grandpa Leon and Grandma Agnes were never the life of the party.

P1020723

Us sitting in a wedding sedan.

P1020721

Behold the blushing bride-to-be

P1020717

Agnes by the lake.

P1020716

Leon is distracted by something (or someone).

P1020715-1

Agnes likes this pic for obvious reasons.

P1020715

A Moment of Contemplation

P1020713

A volcano and water-walking dinosaurs at the main lake.

P1020709-1

Another nice picture we took together.

The walls at the indoor display at the Tortoise and Turtle Museum are lined with articles and pictures. What you see here is only a portion of what they put up.

P1020698

Agnes having a close encounter with one of the chelonian residents. What struck us most was the passion the owners of the place have for the animals. Too bad financial support and the facilities do not match up to their enthusiasm.

P1020690

Agnes on the bridge surrounded by hundreds of tortoises.

P1020683
