Son of a Beach!

Me mum decide to have a feast-of-a-dinner today, sea food themed. All because her favorite son is leaving to Shah Alam.

Being the mum that her kids know and love, when it comes to cooking, she only use the best ingredients, and that is exactly what is lacking on that eventful day!

So dad, with all the love for this little family, drove us (me, me mum, me anak buahses Nazmi and his two sister) to Telaga Papan, a small fishing village by the sea occupied by, well....., fishermen!

A visit here or any fishing villages is always a nostalgic treat, as I was born by the sea, in Kampung Penarek to be exact, which also happened to be me dad birthplace. We frequently do a short trip to Telaga Papan, often to replenish mum's stock of sea bounty or just for picnics.
I think dad loves these little trips, there is always a childish glow in his face from watching us play by the sea.

FYI, this is what my parent refers tu as 'naek darak', the moment when the fishermen land their catch and display them for buyers to see.

And the rest will be told by pictures:

Me mum, dok pilih the finest among fishes and clams and shrimps....

A typical scene, "banyok udang kare weh!"

Baby shark

Another typical scene, among buyers are families of the fishermen hoping for their safe return

Salam from Nazmi and moi!

Hmmph, Dok Tahu Nok Royak Gapo.......
