3 weeks ago, on one fine Sunday evening... after
gasak the mouth watering
Penang Assam Laksa in Air Itam Market, I spent my evening together with the 龟仔龟女 in the
Tortoise Pond near the
Kek Lok Si Temple.
There are few hundreds tortoises in the pond... I spent almost an hour looking at the
teenage mutant ninja turtles groovy little animals of various sizes with wizened face, stumpy legs and shorty tails.
The outstanding tortoise cos of the shell "colour".
Lain daripada yang lain.
Tortoise munching the fibrous leafy kangkung..
Wah... Look at the claws. I dunno tortoise has claws too !!!
Tortoise stretching his front legs after his afternoon nap...
Old tortoise (from the Great great Grandpa category). Smooth shells and "thick skinned" tortoise with stumpy legs. Take note of the thick layer of skin on the neck. The concentric rings on the shell is hardly visible.
Another old Grandpa tortoise with shinny smooth shell.
This one looks like turtle :P
Err.... Watch Out Mr Tortoise /龟先生.. U put yourself in a dangerous position.. Guess what happened the next minute?
The poor tortoise lost balance and PK (
pok kai) - I meant fell down lah... Luckily he didn't crack his shell...
四脚朝天... The poor tortoise struggling and trying hard to get up but couldn't... So
kesian :(

Once upon a time, when I was little, I had a tortoise called Kui, and I used to love feeding and watching how it would chomp at the veg.. but I was always frightened that it might chomp off my finger too, so I never dared to stroke it.. and one time I painted the Japanese Red Sun flag on it and pretended it was a Zero airplane...
