Hot, Hot Pangkor

We did a short stop in Pangkor Marina. It was the hottest we have been so far and standing in the sun felt like being in a fryer.

Sunset view from the Royal Yatch Club in Selangor. We stopped here overnight on our way to Pangkor.

Jellies in the water meant no swimming for us. So we spent our time catching jellies instead. Ali named this fella Jimbo.

Garden decorations at the Dutch Fort in Pangkor island.

 

PB260032

This fellow at the Chinese temple is interactive. The ball in his mouth moves inside of it and you rub it for good luck. What is amazing is that the ball is carved in place as the mouth and the ball come from a single stone.

 

PB260035

Remember this guy from Haw Par Villa?

 

PB260039

The temple is very colorful and fun.

 

PB260040

It had a mini version of The Great Wall. One more thing for Ali to check off her list.

 

PB260044

It was a pretty big temple. After climbing the Great Wall we were pretty high up.

 

PB260047

Local fishing boat at the fish packing plant. There I tried jelly fish chips. The were tasty and crispy, but the aftertaste was nasty.

We also stopped at the local ship builders. It was amazing what these guys can do without any prints or ISO plans as well as the absolute lack of safety regulations.
