What can we ask for more amid the humid weather lately? We are dying for cool breeze! and I think it’s a good excuse to gather family members for a picnic at the beach ;). There are 16 adults and 9 kiddos – no joke. Morib beach is the nearest beach in Klang and I think it’s the only beach that can be found in Klang Valley.
You like fun? We bring lots of toys for the kiddos. There is even a toy truck so the boys are busy transporting sands and the girls basically busy picking shells and building sand castle. We had adult toys too. Not a Vibrator ok! …. a kite!
I’m just to obsessed in photography and this is the best time to take silhouette shots. I took many many of them and really love it so much.
Not forgetting the act of jumping. We jump and jump and keep on jumping just to get a perfect shots where all of us are leap in the air. aitelyu, it’s not easy!
I love this shots the most.
Contrast perfectly balance for my liking. Not too dark. But a perfect silhouette shot should have a brighter background and darker image. I know nuts about photography actually. So if you are a pro, give face a bit ok? We took lots of different post – buddha and duck post. lol. It was so much fun.
They have some kind of wrestling going on too.
2 person will get on the balance bar and start hitting. Whoever falls in the sea lost the game. Who wants to be my opponent???
Picnic can’t go without food. Since there are so many of us, we decided to have BBQ picnic.
Another collage by Picasa aka “Google Photo Organizer”. Download the software now from my right bar.
Excuse me on the burnt food. This is only few burnt, we have more burnt chicken actually! What to do, the wind is too strong plus we have few hiccups at the beginning.
When adult started to get mischievious and abandone their toys, what do they do? They decided to experiment with their food.
Coke + Mentos = ???
6ft Explosion!!!
Sorry about the pic. This is a failed project :(. FAILED!!! Failed to snap any picture actually. I so hate myself that day. How could I did such a mistake. You see, I was distracted by hubby (shouldn’t have ask him to be the cameraman!!! *grrrrr) and one, just ONE, mentos accidentally fell in the coke. It just exploded. Wakakaaa…. I was wet and it was definitely hillarious. Amazingly how only one mentos can create such an explosion. I’m go to do this again in 2 weeks time. Just watch out for this space. Ahem!

I seriously didn’t know Mentos + Coke – Explosion. I wonder if I were to swallow a Mentos, and drink Coke, what would happen. Anyone care to try?

I love barbecue! I eat the burned pieces no problem. 🙂
Looks like a great day for all. Except maybe the mentos.
Where is the Picasa link?

[…] Last year when I was in Morib, I did this experiment. It was successful but I failed to captured the photographs when the coke exploded. This time I’m not worried as Jazzmint has a very keng cau (good) SLR unlike my previous junkie. And the reason why we failed to captured the explosion? One of the mentos accidentally drop into the coke while we are still busy talking. So, this time, I’m making a little homework here. […]
