Rain Drops

Do you like rain? I love rain and I love hearing the raindrops hitting on the window pane.

It was raining so heavily. I decided to snap at the raindrops on the window and see how the photo turn out...lol. That is what I could only do on a raining door as I cant go out in such a heavy downpour.

Patterns on skies

The sky looked so beautiful just like a piece of fabric. It was taken at different times in the evenings.






Thanks to Tom for hosting Sky Watch. For other sky watchers, you can go to Tom's skywatch blog.

Ice Cream Seller


A common street scene in Orchard Road. There should be at least four or five ice cream hawkers along Orchard Road. They are legal. Most ice cream comes in cones or biscuits but some are ice cream sandwiched between two slices of bread (see above photo). I prefer the ice cream in bread....yummy.

Chinese Medicines

It is always interesting to look at the assorted chinese medicine sold by the Chinese Medical Hall in Chinatown. I have never taken these lizard looking animals that are being dried and I think they are the flying lizards. I have no idea how they are being consumed or cooked.

And dried seahorses, no idea what are they used to cure what types of ailments.

I only knew these dried scallops and lingzhi....lol. These lingzhi are one of the most expensive mushrooms sold. They are real huge. For more information on Lingzhi, you can read them here.

And I have no idea what types of skins these are. I think they belong to some kind of reptiles.

You can look at my other post on how a chinese medical hall looked like. Click here for the photo.
