Children and snakes…and an orange iguana!

January 22, 2012 Leave a comment

Whilst driving through Port Dickson recently, noticed a group of children with a rather large collection of snakes. Only managed a few shots as they were touting for money for photographs – and I’m cheap ;) and wasn’t in the mood to negotiate, irrespective of any ethical concerns – but grabbed a few, including the most startlingly orange iguana I have ever seen. The albino python crawling around one child’s waist was something to behold as well!

Once I started showing interest, at least 12 assorted constrictors started emerging from under clothes and being placed on the table. :) I wish I had had longer to check out the back-story as these were well looked-after and healthy reptiles. Perhaps another time… ;)

Not on this beach…

Well, all beaches have some rules to be followed or ignored as the mood takes you, but I love the graphic depiction of “immoral activities” as seen on this beach warning sign in Port Dickson.
Just the concept of the sun setting, the obvious time for romantic feelings to flourish, and the gentle leaning towards each other in a display of emotion – obviously completely immoral and forbidden.
A disgrace to common sense, human feelings, and the restriction of idiotic religion. Inane, and pathetic, and so Malaysian.
