Brocade Blue Monday, December 05, 2011 0 Comments

Batu Laut

1. Great for sailing during high tide

2. Quiet and very un-crowded

3. Romantic enough to make out

4. Nice thick mud like sand

5. Clean water

6. Natural mangrove swamp

Morib

1. Commercialized

2. Tacky and too many Malays

3. Great for family, not so for sex

Cycling in Banting

Brocade Blue Saturday, November 19, 2011 0 Comments

I took the single lane road to Sg Buaya heading towards Jugra and I was welcomed by vast fields of palm oils as far as the eye can see and the intermittent honking of cars brought me back to reality. Somewhere near the fields, I saw a lone man fishing near the tiny stream running along the plantation.That was by far the bestest cycling trip ever. I can't believe I spent all my childhood discovering Pulau and getting chased by some fierce dogs out there. On the other hand, because of the narrow roads, I had to share the space with motorbikes, cars and some heavy trucks. On my way back, a herd of cows were racing towards me, and I had to stop momentarily to decide on where to go when I realise someone was herding them from behind on a motorbike. LOL. Things have definitely changed in Banting. Not to mention some cars with children inside them that slowed down to stare at me and the awe-faced children from an open restaurant I had to turn my head to look because they were screaming and pointing fingers at me. Really? Tomorrow I'm heading towards Morib. Let's see if I can get back in one piece!
