Night at Port Dickson Beach, Negri Sembilan

Port Dickson Beach at Night (N02 30.708 E101 49.605)
We had a stop at one of the beach along the Port Dickson Coastal. There were 2 photos I took for sharing...

I took out my tripod, and placed it towards the Port Dickson town. Photo below...

Port Dickson town from far away

I should make use of the Manual Focus rather than Auto Focus! Regretted after I look into the photos...
The next photo was shooting along the beach, which I'm more satisfied compare with the first photo.

The beach was quite crowded that night, I saw some of campers setting up their tent along the beach. It was a nice area to relax...

After hanging around the beach for an hour, we went back to the Resort for rest...that's end our first day at Port Dickson.

Ostrich Showfarm at Port Dickson, Negri Sembilan

Port Dickson Ostrich Showfarm (N2 26.778 E101 51.749) is located along Jalan Kemang 13, about 450 meter away from the main road of Teluk Kemang, Port Dickson.

The weather was not so good during our visit. No sun and almost rain...

The entrance fee are : MYR8.00 for adult and MYR4.00 for children and senior citizen. I believe the farm does not have subsidy from the Malaysia Tourism.

I was wondering why it called 'Showfarm'? It's because of the 'Show' in the farm? Please elaborate this if you have an answer...:) Ok, the first Showtime - Monkey Plucking Coconut : 11am - 3pm. Second was Ostrich Race : 11.30am - 3.30pm. (The shows will stop perform if rain). Oh my! The So Called Showtime!!

The first animal we saw...the Goat. Oh! I told myself...please show me something interesting...

Then we had been 'Follow' by a White Peacock...

 

It ran away once we walked close to the Ostrich

Then...we saw the Ostrich! With the signage beside...

Juvenile Ostriches (7-16 months)

A) Male feathers are Black in color & female feathers are Grey in color.

B) They do not have teeth, so it is safe to hand feed them.

C) Ostrich belong to the ratite family. The characteristic of the ratite family is they do not have breast muscle, so they cannot fly.

Once the kids read the 'B', they started to feed the Ostrich...

But her face tell us that, she still fear from the Ostrich bite! :)

The Ostrich from Port Dickson

The second ostrich farm note was :-

Breeder / Laying Bird

A) Female ostriches start laying at 1.5 years old.

B) Laying time is from 8am-10am and 4pm-6pm.

C) After laying, the egg will be collected immediately to avoid any soil contamination.

D) The production of eggs are around 40-90 eggs / season. (1 season = 8 months)

The second farm was not allow to Feed! Maybe the ostrich will attack?! I'm not sure...

We continue the walk, I saw there were Monkeys jumping around on the ground. Kind of funny! I did not get the name of it, cos there's no signage...

The Macaque

Too bad, suddenly it started to rain...what a luck! But the children still Busy feeding the rabbits...Haha!

So we had a rest at the Cafe area. The drinks over here are selling at reasonable price...

Beside the cafe, situated the Souvenir Centre. The write-up and the Egg machine which take care of the Ostrich egg got our attention. Quite a nice knowledge to us...

About 10 minutes later, we continued our tour in the farm. There were few interesting 'Birds' beside the cafe, photo below...

It might belong to the Peacock or Turkeys family

If your weight is more than 120kg, Please DON'T stand on it!

Ostrich Egg

Beside the egg, you can have the Ostrich Ride within the area. But the children don't see any interest on it. Strange? Hmm...

I saw One little monkey which was very interesting! I think I spend most of the time captured this monkey in the farm. It was Cute! Haha!

The Little Cute monkey at PD Ostrich Showfarm

The Iguana looks old...wondering what's the age of it?!

That all about it! Basically, the farm got limited animal to see and the animals environment need to Improvement. Most of the animals are not living in the comfort area. All of this might because of the limited fund from the owner. I felt the entrance fee is not justify with the Ostrich farm, they should make more interesting area and make the farm look more clean. There's always a room to improve!

Long Jiang Mee (Noodle), Tampin

FINALLY!!!
I manage to visit this shop and tasted my long waiting "Long-Jiang-Mian"!
Because I miss it on my last visit, after so many months later......I finally have it!
Hmm......none of my friends tell me that, it looks like Wanton Noodle, so I expect something different. But, anyway.....it's taste slightly different from Wanton mee, it's smoother and feel more 'Q'!
My descriptions might not accurate, you have to try it yourself! Haha!

It has a long history behind, the are many interviews & reviews from the major newspaper are stuck over the wall of the shop.

At least, I fulfilled my mouth for the noodle! :)
After this, we continue our journey to "The D-Paradise Tropical Fruit World"......

Famous Authentic Seremban Baked Crab (CNY 2008 Trips)

We heard about this famous authentic Seremban baked crab long time ago, but I just don't have chance to taste it. After my trips from Kuala Pilah, I drive to the Seremban town through 51 road. It's took about 30 minutes to reach the town. You can see many Dragon Fruit farms along the road, and also many fruit stalls at road site selling this red special fruit.
The first mission at Seremban town was searching for the Famous 'Siew-Pow'. But unfortunately after follow Malsingmaps Poi's........the two shops actually do not exist.
So we decided to take our dinner earlier.
Follow the GPS device, it's route us to this restaurant - "Seremban Seafood Village" N2°43.985' E101°56.065'. (located at No. 3720-3724, Jalan Tuanku Munawir. Tel : 06-7641260)
It's really surprise me that this restaurant was so crowded in this evening!

Kuala Pilah, Negeri Sembilan (CNY 2008 Trips)

Kuala Pilah is a town in Negeri Sembilan, Malaysia. It is also the name of a district of the same name. It is a nice old valley town with many of the pre-war Chinese shophouses still fronting the main streets. This is one of the better places to savour Minangkabau food and there are a few Nasi Padang foodstalls that serve piping hot rice with a variety of savoury, spicy dishes you can choose from......for more, please visit wiki.

Street of Kuala Pilah

My purpose of traveling to this historical town is because of one old Chinese temple - 'San Sheng Khong'. The age of the temple is more than a decade. And many items & equipment in this temple was ship from China since Qing Dynasty.
Located at : N2°44.494 E102°14.936

Beautiful!

Just right opposite of this temple, there's some kind of wall erected by Martin Lister - British resident of Negeri Sembilan. (1889-1897)

Front

Back

And I found out the surrounding of this garden names 'Chinese Garden'.

Peoples are friendly over here, I had a chat with the locals and found out this Chinese garden was built for Temple function during every year. But some said, it's actually the British wanna block the 'Feng Shui' of this temple........
