Penang War Museum

This is where I spent Saturday afternoon... the Penang War Museum at Batu Maung...
Climbing through the narrow tunnels...on all fours... Now, I wish I wore long pants, just for that!
...and dark passageways... (the walls were 4 inches thick), and they used to pile physically disabled people into these places, in times of emergency. This one led to the ammunition store-room I think.
So much for my claustrophobia...
Firing base...
Quarters of some of the soldiers... barb-wire and blood-stained gunshot marks on the walls... Yikes!
Climbing out of one of the escape routes, whereby you have to ascend 30-feet of ladder rungs...
That was scary...
This looked like something from the scenes of Lord of The Rings...
Trekking around the ruins...

Alot of climbing to do...
A siren, which you have to manually work by turning the handle...
An old bike!
Those old latrines. Dunno how people managed to get poop into the bucket (behind the wall I was sitting on) back then. Our guess is that you just sit on the edge of the wall...and then the rest, I'll leave to your imagination.
Approaching the snake-house!Err...not sure if I want to go in...
Cobra... replica thankfully.

Trying to grind rice ala Japanese Occupation era style...
The weary-looking, shiny perspiring tourist...


Birthday pressie from Pig

She squeezed in all her creative juices to wrap it up nicely... Hehe.And Oolala... luxurious FaceShop face-cleanser!


Snake-alert... Mini Taman Negara


Snake skin in Mini Taman Negara...:PSerpent-alert! Keeping a nervous lookout for the snake! We dared not move around til' our grass-cutter friend had declared the garden snake-free for the time being.


CG CNY dinner & Surprise Birthday Cake


Some pictures Tairven took...

Loads of yummy food...We were stuffed!
Wee Win and Shane, our guests who arrived late...guess what they were carrying...
*Whack, whack*
My birthday ice-cream cake...and bf, after I gullibly fell for his tricks to get me out of the way and not suspect a thing...
Uno games as usual... (I think my CG loves Uno!)
