Rainbow Phenomenon In Ipoh

Ok, I think you guys are going to think I'm crazy but this is really the first time I'm seeing this. Not my first time seeing a rainbow of course but a rainbow in this manner is really a first for me....

The brightest area is where the sun is and the circle around it is the rainbow which we saw. This was just right outside my house. The black line at the bottom of the photos is my house awning. It wasn't easy to get these shots as the sun was shining directly into my eyes. All in all, this phenomenon lasted about 10 minutes and it was gone.

I have yet to have time to look this up on the internet to find out exactly how this happened. Stay tuned to see if I do manage to find some info on this....

Malaysia Boleh... Stuff You Will Only See In Bolehland!

Stuff you will only see in Bolehland.... Got this in my Inbox this morning and I thought this should be shared...

Worker taking a nap in a makeshift hammock in the lorry while on the road...


No hands? Fear not... baby's stroller always comes in handy!


When petrol prices soar through the roof, you just have to find the cheapest mode of transportation even for bulky items.



Kids... need to take a nap? With makeshift bolster included :)


Amenities are such a dismal here that broken chairs are not replaced. As typical Malaysians, we just make do with what we have and not make a peep about it.


You know how it is when your contractor charges you for every little task you get him to do? Well, even to correct their mistake they would also charge you, the customer. So you rather just live with an upside-down signboard and business is as usual...


Live carp? Do they look like they're 'live' to you?


Vandalized police shack. What more can I say?


Malaysia's very own version of mobile homes... cable tv included!


You know how it is nowadays when so many English words are borrowed? Well, the latest addition will be 'carpark' but spelt with a Malaysian twist. So now does 'kapak' means carpark or axe?


While mummy shops for household stuff, I might as well give them cushions a test drive...


Probably one of them famous chicken rice stalls that everybody raves about but has no idea how the chickens are prepared... haha!


Every coffee shop or restaurant is required by law to display prominently prices of food and drinks. Very prominent this one, right next to the sistern in the toilet.... sigh....

Cuteness


I couldn't resist taking this pic last week when I saw a little white thing hanging at the bottom of this pick up. I couldn't get close enough to take a clearer picture but that white thing is actually a Mashimaro soft toy which I suspect was one of those McDonald's collectibles a few years back. What a waste!
