See Who's Fishing!

During the weekend we went to Taiping for a short getaway.... I love to go and relax looking at the greens during the day and then in the evening, we thought of going to Kuala Sepetang to savour the food... but this time when we reached there, we saw so many cars parked near the fishing village. True enough, when we went into the shop, there was a big crowd. We changed our minds and turned back to Taiping town for our dinner...

Here are some pictures I captured ....

I saw a crowd from where I stood..
out of curiousity, we walked over to their side..

such a nice lake in Taiping....

I love the reflections...

I think there was a fishing outing going on...

yes...fishing...

this path was very narrow..
we managed to squeeze through...

a lake for all categories of life...

good family outing...

all walks of life....kids, youngsters, elders...

everyone seems to be having a good time...

But I don't think I like to fish...
I find it boring.. hahaha... I rather take a nap...

    I used to go fishing a lot with my heng tais after school when I was younger...budak kampung ma... live by the beach...I like fishing... very calming...gives me time to reflect...I wish I can go back to those times... there's hardly any time for me to reflect now, Claire.

    If everyone is doing a good job in maintaining the cleanliness, Taiping Lake Garden will be even a better place.

    The lake and reflections are beautiful, I'm so glad you got out and walked around. I pretty much figured out that your thing is not killing fish! Plus then you would have to de-scale and cook them!

    The waiting part is boring but when a fish actually bit the hook, the pulling it up bit is very thrilling.
